Verspreide huizen West, Kaag en Braassem
This brand-new villa at Giekhof 10 in Leimuiden is a rare find: a 2-under-1-kap house with a garden all around, set on a quiet road and directly on navigable water. The asking price of €1,050,000 is on the high side for the area, but the home is new and energy-efficient. This listing does not state the property type or year of construction, so those details are missing. For a sense of what's on the market, you can compare with other homes in Kaag en Braassem.
According to the agent, this villa has five rooms, three bedrooms, and one bathroom spread over two floors, with a volume of 762 cubic metres. The living area is listed as 181 square metres by the agent, while the BAG registration records 178 square metres. The home is fully insulated with HR glazing, and features underfloor heating throughout, a heat recovery system, and a heat pump. The energy label is A++++, which is an efficient label, so expect relatively low energy costs.
Leimuiden's Verspreide huizen West is a small, spread-out community of about 1,700 residents, where most homes are owner-occupied and single-family. It's a quiet spot, but residents' opinions vary. One resident says: "Quiet and friendly. Helpful and friendly towards each other." Another, however, is more critical: "Most people end up here because they can't find housing in Leiden, Alphen and surrounding areas. But you wouldn't wish this on anyone, no facilities..." These reviews come from across the municipality of Kaag en Braassem, not just this neighbourhood, and are based on four reviews with an average score of 5.76. The area is not very urban, with a low address density. For more on the local area, see the Verspreide huizen West neighbourhood.

Figures on residents, liveability and the housing market
How residents experience their district
When I moved here, it was a quiet neighbourhood. Now at this moment it's becoming a villa district with many outsiders. These people seek no connection with the neighbourhood. Eccentric and conceited. In the past there were layers of the population, now everyone is equal, often even a step higher. Very unfortunate. Quietly situated at the back of houses. With water at the doorstep. Which according to some posh residents is worth a fortune. I've lived here for 19 years tonight, now I'm 68 years old. No shops, no bus service. You have to do everything by car or bike. The other villages are five kilometres away. 5 km Leimuiden, 5 km Kudelstaart, 8 km from Ter Aar. There could be something better; choose to live rurally. In the very beginning the old guard still lived here, now only people from outside.

Auto-translated to English by AIMost people end up here because they can't find housing in Leiden, Alphen and surrounding areas. But you wouldn't wish this on anyone, no facilities, childcare is full so children go to school in neighbouring municipalities because there is childcare there. You can walk the dog on a strip of verge, nowhere a nice field to be seen let alone a place where they can burn off their energy. Young people have nothing so they regularly vandalise things, every weekend there are fireworks or other nuisance. People are mainly 'bothered' by each other but that's because they are deeply unhappy. The national parking standard is applied in the new housing estates so tough luck if you don't have a space and you'll quickly get a parking ticket. Tyres are slashed, cars scratched and a lot of nuisance from children/young people. Stay away if you can!
