Roland Holstbuurt, Delft
NeighbourhoodThis 1965 terraced house on Hendrik Marsmanlaan is a proper family home with 208 m² of living space, set on a 159 m² plot. The energy label C means it's reasonably efficient, though not the most modern. At €695,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but then this home is more than twice the size of a typical property in the area. For context, terraced houses in Delft vary widely in price and size.
This is a diverse neighbourhood with a mix of students, families and older residents. One resident describes it as a "Diverse neighbourhood" but notes: "Unfortunately, there is nuisance in the neighbourhood and mainly in my building from loitering youths, fatbikers and junkies." The same resident mentions that "many amenities are within walking distance, a shopping centre with many types of shops and several supermarkets." Based on this single review, the neighbourhood has a mixed reputation. The area is densely built-up with a high address density, and most homes are apartments rather than houses. The neighbourhood Roland Holstbuurt has a young population, with many one-person households.
For daily shopping, the AH XL is on your doorstep, with Dirk and Jumbo just around the corner. There are several schools within a five-minute walk, including IKC De Eglantier Voorhof (primary) and Christelijk Lyceum Delft (secondary). The municipality Delft offers a range of amenities, with a GP surgery, library and park all within a ten-minute walk. The train station is about a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Van Silfhout & Hogetoorn Wereldmakelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

In the neighbourhood you have many amenities within walking distance, a shopping centre with many types of shops and several supermarkets. Unfortunately, there is nuisance in the neighbourhood and mainly in my building from loitering youths, fatbikers and junkies. I have encountered people on the stairs several times who were using drugs (crack). The fire escape is full of (stolen) stuff and other rubbish. Many packages are stolen in the building. The neighbourhood sometimes experiences nuisance from students (of which I am a part, not the nuisance).

About Hendrik Marsmanlaan 13, Delft
The asking price is €695,000, which is 91% above the neighbourhood average of €363,000. However, this home is also 106% larger than the average (208 m² vs 101 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €3,341, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,682 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting more space for your money.
The home has energy label C. This means it's reasonably energy-efficient, but not top of the range. You can expect moderate heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 19.2% of homes have label C, while 61.5% have a lower rating (D or below). So this home is better than many in the area.
According to one resident review, there is nuisance from loitering youths, fatbikers and drug use in the building. The total number of crimes reported in the neighbourhood is 216, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. The resident also mentions stolen packages and a messy fire escape. It's worth being aware of these issues.
The AH XL supermarket is just around the corner (134 m), and Dirk and Jumbo are within a five-minute walk. There are several primary and secondary schools within 500 m, including IKC De Eglantier Voorhof and Christelijk Lyceum Delft. A GP surgery and park are also within a five-minute walk, and the train station is about 1.1 km away.
With 208 m² of living space, this home is more than double the neighbourhood average of 101 m². The plot of 159 m² is also generous for a terraced house in this area. Most homes in the Roland Holstbuurt are apartments, so a house of this size is quite unusual.
Given the size and price, this home is likely to appeal to families or couples looking for space. The neighbourhood has many students and one-person households, but this property is larger than typical. The presence of good schools nearby makes it suitable for families with children.
Sold homes in the Roland Holstbuurt took an average of 39 days to sell, which is fairly typical. The current listing has 20 homes for sale, so there is some choice. Given the unique size of this property, it may take a bit longer to find the right buyer.
