Buying a home in Bedrijventerrein De Hooge Veenen, Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel.

Bedrijventerrein De Hooge Veenen is a working business park on the outskirts of Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel. If you're looking for a home here, you're choosing a quieter edge location with straightforward access to Rotterdam and the Randstad via the A20. The area around the park itself is mostly warehouses and light industry, so living directly on the terrain means accepting that atmosphere. A few residential properties do exist nearby, tucked between the commercial spaces, which appeals to people who want affordable land and don't mind the modest surroundings.
