Geleerdenbuurt, Den Helder
NeighbourhoodThis 1933 terraced house on Buys Ballotstraat has a solid, traditional layout over three floors. With 83 m² of living space and a 115 m² plot, it offers more room than you might expect from a pre-war home. The energy label D means heating costs will be noticeable, but the price of €245,000 is keen compared to other terraced houses in Den Helder.
Geleerdenbuurt is a residential area with a high proportion of families and owner-occupied homes (67%). The streets are lined with similar pre-war houses, giving it a settled, established feel. With 76% single-family homes, it's not a place for high-rise living. The neighbourhood is very urban (address density 2934), so amenities are close, but the area itself is calm. One resident says: "It's a quiet street with friendly neighbours, and everything you need is within walking distance." This is based on a single review, but it matches the character of the neighbourhood Geleerdenbuurt.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a second Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Vomar and Lidl are also within a five-minute walk. Kindcentrum De Windwijzer primary school is on your doorstep, and Meerwerf Basisschool De Kluft is just a couple of streets away. The train station is a ten-minute walk, making commutes to Den Helder city centre or further afield straightforward. The municipality Den Helder offers coastal walks and maritime history, but the immediate surroundings are all about everyday convenience.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Laan Makelaars, Funda, Pararius and Vastgoed Nederland.
