Bennekom-Zuidoost, Ede
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Algemeer in Bennekom sits on a generous 413 m² plot, giving you plenty of outdoor space. Built in 1956, it has an energy label G, so heating costs will be significant. At €575,000, the price is below the neighbourhood median of €562,500, but the floor area of 95 m² is 26% smaller than the local average of 129 m², making it a relatively expensive option per square metre. For comparison, there are currently 12 detached houses in Ede on the market.
Bennekom-Zuidoost is a quiet residential area with a mix of ages, many residents are 65 or older (795 out of 2,585), and there are also families with children (330 households). The neighbourhood feels safe and green, though one resident notes: "Because Bennekom was safer before 1995... After 1995, Bennekom became busier with residents and traffic, making it more unsafe due to much more car traffic." They also mention that "the village centre is cosy" and "the community can be called very cosy; everyone knows everyone." The neighbourhood Bennekom-Zuidoost has a moderate urban density (1,268 addresses per km²), so it's not too crowded.
For daily shopping, you have a PLUS supermarket just around the corner, a Lidl a couple of streets away, and an Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. There are several primary schools nearby: Basisschool Sint Alexander and CNS-basisschool Wilhelmina are both within walking distance. The municipality Ede offers further amenities like a GP practice and a restaurant.

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 Algemeer 63, Bennekom
The asking price of €575,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €562,500, but below the average sold price of €684,275. However, the floor area of 95 m² is 26% smaller than the local average of 129 m², so you're paying a premium per square metre. The large plot of 413 m² partly compensates, but the energy label G means high running costs.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and you can expect high heating and electricity bills. In the neighbourhood, 58.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it's worth budgeting for upgrades.
The plot is 413 m², which is generous for a detached house. The listing does not specify how much of that is garden, but with a house of 95 m², there is plenty of outdoor space for a lawn, patio, or even a vegetable patch.
Bennekom-Zuidoost is a quiet, green area with a mix of older residents and families. One resident describes it as "very cosy" with a strong community feel. However, they also note increased traffic and safety concerns since 1995. The village centre is cosy and has good facilities.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away, so you'll need a car or bike to get there. Bus line 86 connects Bennekom to Ede and Wageningen, but residents say it runs too infrequently.
Yes, there are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool Sint Alexander (623 m), CNS-basisschool Wilhelmina (662 m), and CNS-basisschool De Plataan (827 m). Secondary schools are 2.5 km away, so a bike or bus ride is needed.
