Oldegalileën, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Papaverstraat in Leeuwarden feels like a snug retreat with its 69 m² of living space and a small garden. Built in 1935 and boasting an A energy label, it's both charming and efficient. The rent of €1,104 is in line with the market, and compared to other terraced houses in Leeuwarden, it's a fair deal.
Oldegalileën is a mixed neighbourhood with a lively street scene. One resident describes it as "Cosy," noting that "everything is within walking or cycling distance and there are plenty of supermarkets, gyms and schools nearby." Another calls it "Strange little neighbourhood" with "often strange people hanging around on the street." Based on two reviews, it's a place with character. Most homes are single-family, and many residents live alone. The Oldegalileën neighbourhood has a strong urban feel.
Your daily routine here is easy: grab bread at Jumbo just around the corner, or walk a couple of streets away to Poiesz. For school, IKC Prins Constantijn is a five-minute walk, and Stedelijk Gymnasium is about a ten-minute walk. There's also a bakery at the end of the street, as residents mention. The area falls under the municipality of Leeuwarden, which keeps the streets clean and rubbish collected often.
At present, the home is listed through several channels, including De Noordelijke Verhuur Makelaars. The listing is available on Pararius as well.

Although there are occasionally some vagrants wandering around the neighbourhood or drunk men making it a bit unsafe, it is otherwise a very nice neighbourhood. Everything is within walking or cycling distance and there are plenty of supermarkets, gyms and schools nearby. There's also a nice bakery at the end of the street. It's very pleasant living here. It's also clean, no litter on the streets and rubbish is collected often. There's a forest nearby but it's unsafe in the evening.
Auto-translated to English by AIStrange little neighbourhood, there are often strange people hanging around on the street. There are always groups of chavs chilling in front of their houses at night. Most neighbours are friendly though. Many amenities nearby, such as primary school, secondary school within walking distance, shopping square, sports club. The other night at around two in the morning I was smoking a cigarette in front of my house, and an old dark-skinned woman asked if I wanted to buy a racing bike (in excellent condition) for ten euros, haha. The streets are extremely narrow and some are genuinely difficult to drive into with a car.
