Nieuw-Vennep Welgelegen, Haarlemmermeer
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Wageningenstraat sits in a quiet part of Nieuw-Vennep, where the streets are lined with similar homes from the 1960s. With 126 m² of living space, it is noticeably roomier than many houses in the area. The price of €499,000 is 20% above the neighbourhood average of €415,500, which puts it on the high side, but then you are getting a floor area that is 26% larger than the typical 100 m².

The asking price of €499,000 is 20% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€415,500). However, this house has 126 m² of floor area, which is 26% larger than the neighbourhood average of 100 m². So you are paying more, but you are also getting more space. The price per m² works out at roughly €3,960, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,688 per m².
The energy label is C. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label C is in the middle of the scale, it means the home is not exceptionally efficient, but also not inefficient. Expect moderate energy costs. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, with a third each at A+, A and B, so this home is slightly below the local average in terms of efficiency.
The train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk or a short cycle. Nieuw-Vennep station offers direct services to Amsterdam, Leiden and Haarlem, making it a practical choice for commuters.
There are several schools within walking distance. Primary school Het Mozaïek is 324 m away, and the Herbert Vissers College (mavo, havo, vwo) is just 236 m from the house. Another secondary school (vmbo) is 359 m away. For special primary education, De Fakkel is 457 m away.
Jumbo is 664 m away, just around the corner. Lidl is 969 m and Albert Heijn is 1 km, both a couple of streets away. Hoogvliet is 1.3 km. So daily shopping is very convenient on foot or by bike.
In the past period, 24 homes were sold in the neighbourhood at an average price of €582,979. That is higher than the current asking price, but those sold homes may have been larger or in different conditions. The average time on the market for sold homes was 81 days, which suggests a fairly active market.

How residents experience their district
We have reasonable contact with each other, but if you don't have family in the neighbourhood, you could lie dead in your house for a month; it's still every man for himself. For hygiene, the streets are not cleaned, the street is uneven, you have to watch where you walk. For housing, more maintenance is needed; my house is damp, my kitchen lock is broken, the skylight hasn't been fixed properly, and I'm heating like crazy to keep warm, and it's only November.
Auto-translated to English by AII came to live at Oostmoor 22 when it was new. At first, very good contact with the fellow residents. Now partly - owner-occupied homes - the contact hasn't improved. Everyone lives in their own bubble, also caused by both partners working. People have no time for others. I myself make frequent use of the neighbourhood centre Linguenda, for a cup of coffee and a meal twice a month. Organised by volunteers. Even though the neighbourhood centre is centrally located in the area, it is still unknown to many. I also go to the meeting centre and C PUNT, to meet others and the belote club. For many elderly people, using a PC or laptop is somewhat complicated, and they therefore miss out on some information. I also use the supermarket for communication; you always run into someone you haven't seen in a while. Ludwig Fauser. optionally phone number 0640391865.
Auto-translated to English by AII do think it has become quite chavvy, there are many loitering youths at the shops and in the parks making noise and causing nuisance and mess. There are plenty of shops and ways to reach public transport, and there are also plenty of schools, so that is a plus point. Safety is quite poor. In the evenings, if you want to cycle alone, it has become quite scary because there are very unpleasant people around who often harass you. This is especially around the IJweg and the Kikkers (hockey) and at the Symfonie. In the evenings, there are also many drunk young people around the Symfonie. There is occasional enforcement, but they don't do much. More checks and stricter controls are needed.
Auto-translated to English by AIYoung people make a lot of noise in the evenings/nights and sometimes threaten. Then they hang out in the park and shout, etc.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a safe neighbourhood, there is good education and good primary schools, and there are many shops nearby and many supermarkets, public transport is very nice, many buses run, there are also several sports clubs, and beautiful nature, the neighbourhood is very cosy and parties are also organised and they are very cosy!!
Auto-translated to English by AIThere's quite a lot to do in our neighbourhood. This is also because there's a nice community centre. So there's something for everyone. In one word: cosy!
Auto-translated to English by AIEnjoy the surroundings and hearing the kids play outside. It's a wonderful place to stay

It's quite quiet and damp. It's also very cosy, children enjoy playing with each other.
Auto-translated to English by AIFortunately, everything is reasonably close by, such as Haarlem, Hoofddorp.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's lovely living here, you know the neighbours, contact, and close to a small park, shops, and a retirement home. Pleasant, 10 minutes' walk to a recreational lake.

Auto-translated to English by AIUnaffordable houses are being built, facilities lag behind. Refuse trucks are always on time but the bins and waste containers are not emptied often, resulting in mess on and along the roads and pavements. One road leading to Bloemenbuurt that is full of rubbish due to new construction and through traffic. Too many Moroccan people. Good schools though.
Auto-translated to English by AINice surroundings, quiet, convenient location relative to the A44 (though there are various road closures and diversions until 2030 due to bridge replacements). There are no shops, but a mobile shop comes three times a week for last-minute groceries, otherwise you drive to Sassenheim, Lisse or Nieuw-Vennep. Things are regularly organised in both De Buitenkaag and De Kaag, and thanks to that I've already met several villagers, which makes living here pleasant. A local newspaper appears a few times a year with all sorts of useful information and articles about the villages, residents and/or activities. Very handy!
