Vogelwijk, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s terraced house on Leeuwerikstraat sits in a calm corner of Leeuwarden. With 119 m² of living space, it's a quarter larger than the average home in the neighbourhood, and that extra room is noticeable. The asking price of €325,000 is a touch above the local median of €295,000, but given the size and energy label C, it's in line with what similar homes fetch here. For context, terraced houses in Leeuwarden typically sell within a month or so.
Vogelwijk is a leafy, low-rise part of Leeuwarden where most homes are pre-war terraced houses. Two residents describe it as "Calm and quiet", one says: "Everyone keeps to themselves but it's a calm and peaceful neighbourhood." The other simply calls it "Top." Based on those two reviews, it's a place where people appreciate the peace. The area is densely built (over 3,400 addresses per km²) but feels spacious because of the gardens and wide streets. Most households are singles or couples, and the average income is around the city norm. Read more about the neighbourhood Vogelwijk.
