Buying a house in Teylingen: the housing market in 2026
Teylingen is a municipality in the heart of the Bollenstreek, made up of three villages: Sassenheim, Voorhout and Warmond. Each has its own village character, but together they are home to around 38,470 residents who benefit from a green environment and excellent connections. Sassenheim station and Voorhout station are on the Leiden-Haarlem line, the A44 is within minutes, and both Leiden and Haarlem are a quarter of an hour's drive away. This combination of tranquillity and accessibility makes Teylingen popular with families and home-movers.
The housing market reflects this. Of the more than 16,650 homes, 66% are owner-occupied, the rest are rental. The average WOZ value is €458,000, but actual selling prices are significantly higher: over the past twelve months, an average of €909,580 was paid for a home in Teylingen, with an average floor area of 154 m². The range is wide, from €275,000 for a compact apartment to €6,450,000 for the most expensive detached homes along the Warmond lakes. Supply is tight and homes change hands quickly. At the top of this page you will find the current listings and selling time. Buurtje.nl brings together homes from more than 1,500 sources and adds neighbourhood scores and resident reviews, so you can assess not just the home but also the neighbourhood.
The best neighbourhoods to buy a house in Teylingen

Voorhout Oosthout, new-build with a village feel
Oosthout is one of the newer expansion neighbourhoods of Voorhout and scores an 8.3 from residents.

Warmond, village living by the water
Warmond is the smallest village in Teylingen and has its own, almost rural character. The Kagerplassen lakes are just around the corner, there is a cosy village centre with small shops and eateries, and the community is close-knit. Residents give Warmond a 7.8, with the green surroundings and water scoring particularly high. The downside: supply is limited and prices for waterside homes are steep. Anyone looking for a home with a view and space needs patience here. Discover what is currently available in Warmond.
Sassenheim Midden, central and lively
The centre of Sassenheim offers the most amenities: shops along the Hoofdstraat, supermarkets, GPs and the station within walking distance. With a neighbourhood score of 7.9, residents particularly appreciate the accessibility and level of amenities. The housing stock here is more varied, from apartments above shops to terraced houses in the side streets. This makes Sassenheim Midden suitable for first-time buyers buying an apartment in Teylingen as a first step. View the current listings in Sassenheim Midden.
In addition, there are neighbourhoods certainly worth exploring. Sassenheim West is a quiet residential area with many 1970s homes and relatively affordable entry prices. In the Oude Dorp of Voorhout you will find characterful homes with village charm, and Hooghkamer is a new-build neighbourhood where new projects are regularly completed.

What to look out for when buying a home in Teylingen?
Firstly: look beyond just Sassenheim. Many buyers automatically focus on the largest village, but Voorhout often offers more square metres for the same budget. Especially the newer neighbourhoods like Oosthout and Hooghkamer offer good value for money.
Secondly: prepare for competition. The market in the Bollenstreek is tight. Homes often sell above the asking price, especially in the segment up to €600,000. Make sure your financing is in order before you start viewing, and engage a local buying agent who knows the market.
Thirdly: amenities and accessibility differ per village. Warmond does not have its own train station, Sassenheim and Voorhout do. If you commute daily to Leiden or Amsterdam, you need to factor that in. Also look at the parking and school situation in the neighbourhood of your choice.
Finally: use neighbourhood data to make an informed decision. On Buurtje.nl you can compare scores per neighbourhood on safety, greenery, amenities and accessibility. This gives a fairer picture than just a viewing on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Considering renting too? Then view the rental homes in Teylingen as an alternative.

My experience with my neighbourhood is generally very positive. It's a place where I feel at home, especially because there is a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. What I appreciate most is that people greet each other on the street here — even if you don't know each other personally, there is still a sense of connection. The neighbourhood itself is green and well-arranged, with many trees and playgrounds for children. On summer evenings you often hear the soft murmur of people sitting outside, and sometimes street barbecues or small-scale neighbourhood activities are organised. Of course, there are occasional annoyances, such as noise nuisance or parking problems, but for me they don't outweigh the positive feeling I have about living here. My neighbourhood feels like an extension of my home: familiar, friendly and liveable.
