Buying a home in Zwaagdijk-West Centrum, Zwaagdijk-West.
Zwaagdijk-West Centrum is where young families and practical professionals choose to build: solid detached and semi-detached homes on quieter streets, many with gardens that face onto farmland or water. You're minutes from the primary school and local shops, but not hemmed in by noise. The neighbourhood grew steadily in the 1990s and early 2000s, so the housing stock is relatively new and well-maintained. From here you can reach the North Holland waterfront villages by bike, and Alkmaar's shops and services are a short drive away.
