A new-build apartment in the heart of Eindhoven
This brand-new apartment on Deken van Somerenstraat is part of a 2026 development in the lively Bergen neighbourhood. With 117 m² of floor space, it was 50% larger than the local average, and the A+++ energy label meant running costs would be minimal. The last known rent of €3,750 was 81% above the neighbourhood average of €2,067, so it sat on the high side compared to other rentals in the area. For context, the supply of apartments in Eindhoven is limited, with only 27 rentals currently available in Bergen. This home has not been online since 25 September 2026.
The Bergen neighbourhood
Bergen is a dense, urban area just north of Eindhoven's centre, with an address density of 4,528 per km². The population is young, nearly half are between 25 and 45, and most households are single-person (1,300 out of 1,985). Families with children are few (185 households), so the vibe is more city-living than suburban. There were no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS data showed a high turnover: 275 rentals were let in the past period, with an average listing time of 31 days. This is the Bergen neighbourhood in a nutshell: compact, dynamic and popular with professionals.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy: a SPAR supermarket is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Jumbo are a five-minute walk away. For fresh organic produce, Ekoplaza is a ten-minute walk. Schools are close too, Saltomontessorischool de Trinoom is on your doorstep, and Basisschool Anton van Duinkerken is just around the corner. Secondary education is within walking distance at Van Maerlantlyceum. The neighbourhood falls under the municipality of Eindhoven, which manages public spaces and local amenities.
