Zeeheldenbuurt, Waddinxveen
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s semi-detached house on Brugweg 81 sits on the 'other side' of Waddinxveen, as one resident puts it, across the bridge from the old village centre. With 110 m² of living space and a 318 m² plot, it's a home with both indoor and outdoor room to breathe. The asking price of €450,000 is notably below the neighbourhood average of €638,500, making it a keen entry point for a family home in this part of town. For context, semi-detached houses in Waddinxveen typically command higher prices.
The neighbourhood Zeeheldenbuurt is a small, established neighbourhood with 560 residents. It's predominantly made up of families and older couples, nearly half the population is over 45, and there are few young children. The one resident review sums it up: "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." It's a quiet, car-oriented area where most homes are owner-occupied and single-family.
For groceries, you're a ten-minute walk from Albert Heijn, with Jumbo and Lidl just a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Basisschool Theo Thijssen, is just around the corner, while secondary school Coenecoop College is a ten-minute walk. A playground run by an association is nearby, and the municipality Waddinxveen provides basic amenities within walking distance, a GP and a restaurant are both a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Gouwestad Makelaardij, Funda, Pararius and Vastgoed Nederland.
