Living in Verspreide huizen Raaphorst en in poldergebied, Wassenaar
This is not a neighbourhood in the traditional sense of the word. Verspreide huizen Raaphorst en in poldergebied is exactly what the name says: a collection of detached houses, estate homes and farmhouses scattered across the open polder and dune landscape north and east of the village of Wassenaar. The Raaphorst estate, with its woods, lanes and historic buildings, forms the green heart of this area. Those who live here consciously choose space, privacy and nature, not urban proximity.
The homes date from various periods. Alongside historic estate homes and converted farmhouses, there are also twentieth-century villas on spacious plots. Compact terraced houses or apartments are not found here. Living in Verspreide huizen Raaphorst en in poldergebied almost by definition means: a large home with a sizeable garden or yard, surrounded by greenery.
Facilities in the immediate vicinity are limited. For daily shopping, schools and catering, you rely on Dorp Wassenaar, a few kilometres away. Primary schools and secondary schools in Wassenaar are accessible by bike or car. Sports clubs, tennis courts and bridle paths are present in the region, fitting the character of the area. The Wassenaarse Slag and the dunes are a short distance away, as are the estate parks that surround the area.
In terms of accessibility: a car is indispensable. The nearest NS station is Wassenaar, but connections are limited. Via the N44 towards The Hague or the A44 towards Leiden and Amsterdam, you are relatively quickly on your way by car. Bus connections exist, but are not frequent. Cyclists can enjoy the quiet country roads, although it is not a neighbourhood for those who want to cycle to a station daily.
The residents are predominantly over 45, married, without children living at home. The income level is high, with an average household income of €61,400.

If you compare this neighbourhood with neighbouring areas such as Groot Deijleroord en Ter Weer or De Paauw, it is striking that it is even more rural and quieter here. In the district Noordoostelijk deel der gemeente as a whole, house prices are on average lower, but in this specific sub-area, the large plots and estate character determine the top end of the market.
