Welgelegen, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s terrace house on Accamastraat sits in Welgelegen, a neighbourhood with a mix of stately homes and workers' cottages. With 80 m² of living space and a 95 m² plot, it's a compact but characterful home. The price of €235,000 is in line with the market, the median in the area is €237,000. For context, terraced houses in Leeuwarden average around that figure.
Welgelegen has a split personality, according to residents. One calls it a "Cosy neighbourhood" with an "Atmospheric neighbourhood with nice neighbours. Houses with a stately character interspersed with smaller workers' cottages. You can feel the history, you can walk straight into the city centre." Another describes it as "Restless": "It's fine to live here, as long as you stay in your own house. There are huge drug problems in the neighbourhood and cars speed by. So cats can't safely go outside either." Based on two reviews, it's a place of contrasts. The neighbourhood Welgelegen has a very high density (3,906 addresses per km²) and a young population, most residents are between 25 and 45. Only a quarter of homes are owner-occupied, so this house is a relative rarity.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Jumbo and Lidl a couple of streets away. Primary school IKC de Kinderkoepel is a five-minute walk, and several secondary schools are within a ten-minute walk. The municipality Leeuwarden offers a lively city centre within walking distance, with restaurants and a park nearby.
