Zeeheldenbuurt, Waddinxveen
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Brugweg sits on the edge of Waddinxveen, where the village character is still tangible. With 113 m² of living space and a plot of 227 m², it offers a generous footprint for a home built in 1899. The price of €393,950 is notably keen, 38% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which makes it a striking option compared to other semi-detached houses in Waddinxveen.
The neighbourhood Zeeheldenbuurt is a small neighbourhood with 560 residents, mostly aged 45 and over. It feels like a forgotten corner of Waddinxveen, as one resident puts it: "The other side, i.e. the other side of the village that Waddinxveen used to be. Across the bridge... so the other side. No shop, no public transport stop, no park, no school." The review notes that young families are few, and the area has a playground association. It is a quiet, established pocket with a strong sense of its own history.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Lidl are a couple of streets away. Basisschool Theo Thijssen is a five-minute walk, while Coenecoop College for secondary education is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Waddinxveen provides the broader context, with a train station a ten-minute walk away and a park or public garden within a couple of streets.
At the time of writing the home is listed via B&L Vastgoed and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

The other side, i.e. the other side of the village that Waddinxveen used to be. Across the bridge... so the other side. No shop, no public transport stop, no park, no school. Now the latter is not necessary in this old little neighbourhood with few young families. There is a playground (association). So a bit of the forgotten side of Waddinxveen.
