Pootstraat 17
Westerkwartier, Delft
AreaA compact studio in the heart of Delft
This studio on Pootstraat 17 sits in the Westerkwartier, a lively part of Delft where the streets hum with student life and the canals are never far away. The home dates from 1884, so it carries the character of a classic Dutch townhouse, but it has been set up as a self-contained studio. With a living area of 44 m², it is a compact space that works well for someone who wants to live centrally without excess. The asking price of €325,000 is 22% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which stands at €417,413, so it sits on the sharp side of the market. For context, studios in Delft are a popular choice for those who value location over square metres.
The home itself
The studio is a single living space, with the agent not specifying a separate bedroom or bathroom count. The year of construction, 1884, is a fact of the building's history, and the energy label is D, which means you can expect moderate energy costs. The floor area of 44 m² comes from the BAG registration, and the agent lists the same figure, so there is no discrepancy to note. The price per square metre works out at €7,386, which reflects the premium for living in this part of Delft.
