New Westzaan is a new small residential neighborhood on the Zuideinde in Westzaan. Fourteen contemporary family homes on the former Spitsterrein. The homes located on the opposite side of the Zuideinde are designed based on farm barns. The future residents share a common courtyard where there is space for parking, playing outside, and meeting. Most of the homes border the backyard with a continuous waterway.

Behind the three-story house, as seen from Zuideinde, rises a block of four family homes. These homes also have their backyards connected to a continuous waterway. The dock and the small stretch of private water area provide a wealth of fun for the whole family. This guarantees all-year-round water fun. Get on the SUP, in a boat, or – who knows – on skates. Just from your doorstep!

Building number 07 is a semi-detached house and has approximately 126 m² of private land and a 30 m² water area. This single-family home has double French doors with access to the backyard by the water. The black facade wood, the white frames, friendly dormer windows, and the red ceramic roof tiles immediately capture the imagination. Identifiable and quirky at the same time!

The house offers a practical and clear layout, with a convenient indoor (bicycle) storage room next to the entrance. On the ground floor, the living room and semi-open kitchen open into each other. The kitchen is located at the front and is delivered as-built, so you can customize it to your liking. The kitchen includes a separate laundry room. More storage space is located in the living room, with additional storage under the stairs.

On the floor are three bedrooms and a neat bathroom, with standard features including a sink, walk-in shower, and a second toilet. The bedrooms have dormer windows. A loft ladder on the landing leads to the mezzanine with headroom in the center of the ceiling.

The house was built with sustainable materials. Black wooden parts, vertically placed, white window frames and traditional red roof tiles create the look that fits the surroundings. Modern installations such as underfloor heating, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery and solar panels make the house energy efficient and future-proof.

Westzaan is a village within the municipality of Zaanstad. The village consists of a bulbous core with short and long ribbon development towards the south (Zaandam, Amsterdam), the west (Beverwijk, Haarlem and Schiphol) and the north (Wormerveer, the Alkmaardermeer and the further outlying area).
Motorists find multiple ways to get to their destinations quickly because from Westzaan the complete national highway network and even more extensive provincial road network are accessed. A driving radius of fifteen minutes takes you to all the surrounding cities.
The bulbous center of Westzaan has all the daily amenities. Elementary school, child care, family doctor's office, supermarket and fresh food stores, restaurant and other family facilities are all available. Of course, sports play an important role in the lives of youth and adult Westzaners. In this regard, the southern part of Westzaan has its own elementary school, daycare and modern supermarket. Those looking for a wider range of stores, culture and culinary delights will find them in the other centers of the municipality. The bicycle is a popular means of transportation in this area, especially since the rides, wherever they may lead, always take you past beautiful scenery.
