Rozenstraat 42

A classic feel on a leafy street

This 1923 terraced house on Rozenstraat sits in the heart of Oud-Rijswijk, where the streets are lined with mature trees and pre-war architecture. With 149 m² of living space, it is a roomy home for a family or couple who want character without sacrificing square metres. The asking price of €595,000 is 26% above the neighbourhood average, but the size is also 37% larger than the typical home here, so you are paying for extra space in a sought-after part of town. For context, terraced houses in Rijswijk vary widely in price and condition.

Oud-Rijswijk: a village feel in the city

Oud-Rijswijk is a compact, historic neighbourhood with a mix of young professionals, families and older residents. The area has a high density of addresses (5,441 per km²), so it feels lively and urban, yet the park and plantsoen are just a couple of streets away. There are no resident reviews available for this street, but the neighbourhood scores well on daily amenities. Most homes here were built before 1945 (68%), and half have energy label C, similar to this house. The neighbourhood Oud-Rijswijk has a strong community feel, with many one-person households and a fair share of families.

Daily life: bread, school and groceries

For your morning bread, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk, so you have plenty of choice. Primary schools are a bit further, the nearest, Protestants Christelijke Basisschool Groen van Prinsterer, is about a ten-minute walk. For secondary education, Gymnasium Novum is a 15-minute walk. The municipality Rijswijk is well served by public transport, with a train station 2.1 km away, a 25-minute walk or short cycle.

Source and availability

At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including De Waarde van Rijswijk. The energy label C means heating costs are moderate, and the 1923 build gives it a solid, traditional construction.
