Bennekom-Zuidoost, Ede
NeighbourhoodThis 1928 corner house on Bergakkerweg sits in a quiet part of Bennekom. With 75 m² of living space and a small plot, it's compact but full of potential. At €195,000, it's the cheapest home currently for sale in the neighbourhood and 71% below the average asking price, a keen entry point for anyone looking to buy in this part of Ede. For comparison, other end-of-terrace houses in Ede typically go for much more.
The neighbourhood Bennekom-Zuidoost is a mixed residential area with mostly single-family homes (88%) and a high proportion of owner-occupied properties (91%). The population is older on average, with a third of residents aged 65 or over. One resident sums it up: "The community can be called very cosy; everyone knows everyone, which makes Bennekom very pleasant." They also note that traffic safety has declined since 1995, with double-parked cars making it dangerous for cyclists and pedestrians. The review gives the neighbourhood a 6.75 out of 10.
For daily errands, Lidl is on your doorstep, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and PLUS is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool Sint Alexander and CNS-basisschool Wilhelmina are both a five-minute walk, and CNS-basisschool De Plataan is a bit further. The village centre of Bennekom is cosy and has good facilities, as residents mention. The municipality Ede is working on traffic safety improvements in the area.

Because Bennekom was safer before 1995, that was clearly visible at the time. After 1995, Bennekom became busier with residents and traffic, making it more unsafe due to much more car traffic, for which the existing infrastructure is not designed. Furthermore, what needs to be greatly improved is that public bus service line 86 is too infrequent in the streetscape to safely get from point A (Bennekom itself) to point B (Ede and Wageningen). For example, bus line 86 should run 4 times per hour between 07:00 and 11:00 and also between 15:30 and 19:30, on all weekdays. Three extra bus stops in Bennekom could reduce car traffic. Many people remain dependent on public transport. When it comes to green spaces, Bennekom remains very popular, both for recreation and living. Regarding hygiene, attention should be paid to the streetscape, especially more frequent cleaning of the pavement along with the green spaces. In terms of traffic safety, Bennekom has become more unsafe, probably at least 15 percent from 1995 to the present. Especially many double-parked cars make it very dangerous for cyclists and pedestrians. What people are satisfied with are the available facilities. Furthermore, the village centre is cosy. What remains particularly visible in North Bennekom is the severe traffic unsafety, partly due to very poor and unsafe infrastructure. Hopefully this will be improved. The community can be called very cosy; everyone knows everyone, which makes Bennekom very pleasant. All in all, if we compare Bennekom from the period 1995-2005 to the present, more safety measures are desired, including more police. Because Bennekom had a good rating of possibly 8.5 in the period 1995-2005, due to the busy society it has now reached a rating of 7.0. Hopefully this can be restored to 8.5 (or even more). To achieve this, the municipality of Ede is currently working on realising very safe traffic, making Bennekom even safer. Let's hope for great success.

About Bergakkerweg 2A, Bennekom
At €195,000, this is the cheapest home for sale in Bennekom-Zuidoost and 71% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €663,667. However, it's also smaller than average (75 m² vs 129 m²) and needs some updating given its age and energy label D. The price reflects the compact size and the work likely required, making it a budget-friendly option in an otherwise expensive market.
The home has energy label D. That means it's not particularly efficient, you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 58% of homes have label D or lower, so it's not unusual for the area. Upgrading insulation or the heating system could improve the label and reduce bills.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away, so you'd need a bike or car to reach it. Bus line 86 connects Bennekom to Ede and Wageningen, but residents say it runs too infrequently, only once per hour outside peak times. The reviewer suggests more frequent services and extra stops would help reduce car traffic.
Bennekom-Zuidoost has a mix of ages, with many older residents (a third are 65+) and a fair number of families. The community is described as very cosy, "everyone knows everyone." It's a quiet, village-like atmosphere, though some residents feel traffic has made it less safe in recent years.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool Sint Alexander (421 m), CNS-basisschool Wilhelmina (446 m), and CNS-basisschool De Plataan (640 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.5 km away, so a bike ride or bus trip is needed.
The neighbourhood recorded 50 total crimes in the latest data, which is moderate. However, one resident notes that traffic safety has declined since 1995, with double-parked cars creating dangers for cyclists and pedestrians. The municipality is working on improvements.
