This home has not been online since 2 September 2026.
Life in Vogelbuurt
Vogelbuurt is a small, settled neighbourhood where older residents make up a notable share of the population. Around a third of households are single people, and just over a quarter are families with children, giving the streets a mixed, quiet feel. The housing stock is mostly owner-occupied, with a high proportion of single-family homes, so the apartment stands out as a rental option in an otherwise ownership-heavy area. Crime figures are low, and the neighbourhood sits within the municipality of Meppel, which keeps local services close at hand.
Daily routine on the street
For everyday errands, the PLUS supermarket is just around the corner, making a quick bread-and-milk run easy. Basisschool Commissaris Gaarlandt is on your doorstep, and Kindcentrum De Wel is a couple of streets away, so school runs are short. A park or public garden is also just around the corner for an after-dinner stroll. The nearest train station is 7.6 km away, which makes commuting by rail a longer journey.
