End-of-terrace houses for sale in Waddinxveen

Waddinxveen is wedged between Gouda and Zoetermeer, with the Gouwe as its backbone and a housing market that reflects this: compact, clear-cut, and with little room for doubt. Anyone looking for an end-of-terrace house here will find a supply that is scarce but stable in character. Most end-of-terrace houses are in post-war residential areas, with a modest but growing share of new-build on the edges of the municipality. Current numbers can be found in the overview at the top of this page.

What makes end-of-terrace houses in Waddinxveen different from the region

Waddinxveen is not a big city, and you can tell from the type of supply. End-of-terrace houses here are often terraced houses that, due to their position, have a bit more land, but rarely the large plots you see in rural areas. Most are in neighbourhoods built between the 1960s and 1980s, with a mix of private owners and former social housing units that have since been sold.

That character suits a certain type of buyer: families who want space without taking the step to a detached house, and people who value a side extension possibility or own driveway. Buying an end-of-terrace house in Waddinxveen is therefore a conscious choice for practical living comfort, not for prestige.

What to look out for specifically with an end-of-terrace house

• Boundaries and side garden rights. With end-of-terrace houses, the side wall borders public space or a neighbouring plot. Check the cadastre for exact boundaries, as fences and paving are not always correct.
• Two facades, double maintenance. An end-of-terrace house has more facade surface than a mid-terrace house. Ask about the condition of the side wall, brickwork and roof edge, and factor that into your maintenance budget.
• Permit-free building on the side. Not always allowed. The side wall sometimes borders a road or public green space, meaning permit-free building options are more limited than in the back garden.
• Speed of response. End-of-terrace houses in Waddinxveen sell faster than mid-terrace houses in the same segment. Make sure your financing is in order in advance and that you have a buying agent who can act quickly.
• Easements. Check the deed of transfer for easements. With corner plots, there is sometimes a right of way for neighbours or a utility line running through the side strip.
• Set up push notifications. New listings disappear quickly. Set up free alerts in the Buurtje.nl app and you'll see new end-of-terrace houses as soon as they come online. The app is free to download via the App Store and Google Play.
• HOA check for end-of-terrace houses in a complex. Some 1980s end-of-terrace houses fall under a small homeowners' association for the roof structure. Always ask about the reserve fund status.

Price level: end-of-terrace houses are in the higher segment

In Waddinxveen, end-of-terrace houses generally fall in the more expensive part of the owner-occupied market, compared to mid-terrace houses on the same street. The premium is due to the extra land, the larger facade and the freedom on the side. Current prices are in the overview at the top of this page.

Factors that further influence the price:

• Location relative to the Gouwe or the centre
• Presence of a driveway or garage
• Energy label, especially for homes built before 1990
• Year of construction and condition of the side wall
• Plot size and development possibilities

Banks are strict about floor area for small homes, but end-of-terrace houses in Waddinxveen rarely fall below the critical threshold of 40 m².

Alternatives if the supply in Waddinxveen is too limited

Waddinxveen has a limited supply and little turnover. If you are flexible on location, it is worth looking outside the municipality as well. Rotterdam is a reasonable distance away and has a much larger and more varied supply of end-of-terrace houses, also in lower price segments.
