Westerwatering Noord, Zaanstad
NeighbourhoodThis end-of-terrace house on Weiteveen sits in a peaceful corner of Westerwatering Noord, a green neighbourhood where nature is never far away. With 107 m² of living space and an energy label A, it is efficient and comfortable. The asking price of €450,000 is in line with the market for terraced houses in Zaanstad.
One resident describes it as "enchantingly quiet, but sometimes too deserted", a beautiful, green area that can feel isolated at times. The neighbourhood is connected to the rest of Zaandam by only two roads, and when the bridge 'De Binding' is closed, traffic jams are common. Amenities are sparse: there is no café or ice cream parlour, so for a coffee or a treat you have to travel further. The neighbourhood Westerwatering Noord is home to many families, with a mix of ages and mostly owner-occupied houses.
For daily groceries, Vomar and Dekamarkt are just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. Schools are also close: two primary schools are within a couple of streets away, and a secondary school is a five-minute walk. The municipality Zaanstad offers a range of amenities, though you'll need to travel a bit for a library or a night out.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Saen Garantiemakelaars Zaandam and also appears on Funda.

It's a beautiful and green neighbourhood, with nature that truly enchants you. Yet sometimes it can feel too quiet and isolated. The neighbourhood is connected to the rest of the city by only two roads. When the bridge 'De Binding' is closed, only one route remains to civilisation — which regularly leads to traffic jams. Additionally, there is unfortunately a lack of good amenities. There isn't a single café or ice cream parlour in the area; for a simple cup of coffee or a treat, you have to travel miles. The infrastructure could certainly be improved to make life here more pleasant and better connected.
