Rent a Home in Toolenburg, Hoofddorp
A residential area from the eighties and nineties with a recreational lake as its neighbor, a varied housing supply, and a direct cycling connection to the center.
Toolenburg was built between 1988 and 1999 on the north side of Hoofddorp.

District with Its Own Recreation Area
The Toolenburgerplas is the distinguishing feature of the district. A wide lake with sandy beaches along its edges, offering windsurfing and recreational boating. In summer, the lake attracts people from outside the district, but for residents of Toolenburg, it's the lake just around the corner. If you want to run or swim after work, it's within walking distance.
The district itself has quiet residential streets, little through traffic, and a clear layout. Toolenburg is not the most cohesive district of Hoofddorp but it is one of the greenest.
What You Rent
The housing supply consists of single-family homes, semi-detached houses, and smaller apartment complexes. Toolenburg has more owner-occupied homes than rentals, but there is a free-sector rental market. For those seeking a more spacious home with a garden near the center of Hoofddorp, Toolenburg offers an option alongside Floriande.
The price level is higher than in Graan voor Visch but lower than in the newest parts of Floriande. The eighties and nineties construction is in fair to good condition, with insulation standards better than seventies homes but less than new builds.
