De Waag, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Weerd sits in the heart of Leeuwarden's historic centre, surrounded by centuries-old buildings and lively streets. This listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €695,000, the price is above the neighbourhood median of €555,000, but the floor area of 83 m² is 51% smaller than the local average of 170 m², so the price per square metre is relatively high compared to other apartments in Leeuwarden.
De Waag is the historic core of Leeuwarden, a compact area with a high density of shops, restaurants and cultural venues. With an address density of 4,761 addresses per km², it is very strongly urban. The population is young: over 40% are between 15 and 25 years old, and most households are single-person (735 out of 1,250 residents). Families with children are rare, with only 45 such households. The housing stock is mostly pre-war (92% built before 1945), and only 15% are owner-occupied, so this apartment is part of a small segment of private ownership in the De Waag neighbourhood.
Daily life here revolves around the central market square and the many cafés and restaurants just steps away. For groceries, SPAR is on your doorstep, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and AH to go is a five-minute walk. For primary education, Openbare Jenaplan Basisschool Oldenije is just 92 metres away, while secondary schools like Stedelijk Gymnasium and Chr. Gymnasium Beyers Naudé are within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the municipality of Leeuwarden provides all municipal services within easy reach.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including POPMA MAKELAARS.
