Volendam-Oude kom, Edam-Volendam
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Slobbeland in Volendam is a recent build from 2020, offering a fresh and efficient living space. With 81 m² of floor area, it is compact but well-designed, and sits on a surprisingly large plot of 10,645 m², a rare combination in this part of town. The asking price of €329,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €468,929, partly because the home is smaller than the typical 114 m² in the area. For context, semi-detached houses in Edam-Volendam vary widely in price and size.
The home is in the Volendam-Oude kom neighbourhood, the historic heart of Volendam. It is a mixed area with a large share of single-family homes (77%) and a homeownership rate of 66%. The population is diverse: about a third are 65 or older, while a quarter are between 25 and 45. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the character is best judged by a visit. The area has a moderate urban feel (address density 1,483 per km²) and offers a range of local shops and services within walking distance.
For your daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just a five-minute walk away on the edge of the neighbourhood. Other supermarkets like Vomar and Dirk are a bit further, about a ten-minute walk. Families with children have several primary schools nearby: Sint Jozef Basisschool is a couple of streets away (a ten-minute walk), and De Samensprong is similarly close. For secondary education, Don Bosco College is also within a ten-minute walk. The area is part of the municipality of Edam-Volendam, which combines the historic charm of Volendam with the amenities of a small town.

About Slobbeland 5-26, Volendam
The asking price of €329,000 is 30% below the neighbourhood average of €468,929, but the home is also 29% smaller than the typical 114 m² in the area. Given the recent construction year (2020) and the large plot, the price appears competitive. The median price in the neighbourhood is €395,000, so this home is priced below that, reflecting its smaller floor area.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means low energy costs for heating and electricity, and a comfortable indoor climate. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A, so this property is in line with the best-performing homes in the area.
The plot measures 10,645 m², which is exceptionally large for a semi-detached house. This offers plenty of outdoor space, but the exact use depends on local zoning regulations. The home itself has 81 m² of living space, so the plot-to-house ratio is unusual and may appeal to those who value a large garden or outdoor area.
In the most recent data, the neighbourhood recorded 114 total crimes. This is a moderate figure for an urban area. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages and household types, with many single-person households and a significant elderly population, which often contributes to a quiet, residential atmosphere.
The nearest train station is 10.6 km away, so this home is not well connected by rail. Public transport in the area relies more on buses. For long-distance travel, a car or bus to a nearby station would be needed.
Yes, daily amenities are close by. Albert Heijn supermarket is 524 m away (a five-minute walk), and several primary schools are within 800 m, including Sint Jozef Basisschool and De Samensprong. Secondary school Don Bosco College is also within a ten-minute walk. This makes the location convenient for families.
The home was built in 2020, so it is relatively new. This means modern construction standards, good insulation, and minimal immediate maintenance needs. The energy label A also indicates efficient systems. Older homes in the neighbourhood (21% built before 1970) may require more upkeep.
The asking price per m² is about €4,062 (€329,000 / 81 m²), which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €4,568 per m². This makes the home relatively affordable per square metre, especially considering the large plot. However, the total floor area is smaller than average, so the overall price is lower.
