De Laar, Ede
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Oost-Breukelderweg sits in a peaceful part of Bennekom, built in 2013 with an A energy label so it's efficient and easy to heat. At 63 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the asking price of €314,500 is 44% below the neighbourhood average of €565,000, partly because it's smaller than the typical home here. That makes it a keen entry point into the market, especially compared to other apartments in Ede.
De Laar is a neighbourhood where many residents are older, but it's also safe and well cared for. One resident describes it as 'a cosy neighbourhood in itself' with playgrounds, football pitches and primary schools nearby, though they note there's no community centre to bring people together. Another calls it 'an oasis of peace yet central', close to shops and forests. A third says it's 'simple, but fine', safe, clean and with plenty of bins. Based on three reviews, it's a place where people know each other but keep a friendly distance. The area has a mix of families and older households, with average incomes and a calm, suburban feel. For more context, see the De Laar neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, SPAR express is just around the corner, and Lidl and Albert Heijn are a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including CNS-basisschool De Plataan (a five-minute walk) and OBS De Prinsenakker (a ten-minute walk). Secondary schools are a bit further, but Het Streek College is also about a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Ede, which offers a good range of amenities and easy access to the surrounding countryside.
At present the apartment is listed through two channels: Makelaardij Jacobs B.V. and Makelaardij Jacobs on Funda.

Very good · 3 residents
It is a cosy neighbourhood in itself. There are many amenities such as nice playgrounds, football pitches, primary schools, shops and more. These places are always lively, but there are many elderly people who are good at complaining. There is no community centre or anything to bring people together, so you don't really have much interaction.
