West van Schaarsbergen, Arnhem
NeighbourhoodThis detached home on Amsterdamseweg sits in a remarkably quiet corner of Arnhem, where the city feels far away. With 351 m² of living space and a 1,367 m² plot, it is the most expensive property currently for sale in the neighbourhood, at €1,000,000, it is 335% above the local average asking price of €229,738. That premium reflects the rarity of such a large, energy-efficient (label A) home in this area. For context, detached houses in Arnhem are scarce, and this one stands out.
The neighbourhood West van Schaarsbergen is a tiny enclave of just 640 residents, with a very low address density (33 addresses per km²), the least urban category. One resident describes it as 'super nice and quiet', adding: 'Our neighbourhood is very quiet and there are many other people living near me, which makes it very cosy.' The population is mostly older: 45-65 year olds form the largest group, and 65-plus residents are also well represented. Most homes are single-family (82%), but only 17% are owner-occupied, so this listing is an exception in a neighbourhood where renting is the norm.
For groceries, the nearest supermarket is SPAR express, a couple of streets away, while Albert Heijn and Coop are about a five-minute drive. The closest school is Lichtenbeek (special education) just around the corner, and the nearest primary school is Bernulphusschool, a ten-minute walk. A train station is 4.8 km away, so a car is handy. The municipality Arnhem offers plenty of cultural amenities, but here in the west you trade convenience for peace and space.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Bell Makelaardij and Pararius. The agent has provided full details: floor area, plot size, year of construction (1962) and energy label A.

About Amsterdamseweg 248, Arnhem
The asking price is 335% above the neighbourhood average of €229,738, but that average is pulled down by many smaller homes. The most expensive sold property in the area went for €1,191,500, so this price is in line with the top end of the market. Given the large plot, energy label A, and 351 m² of space, the price reflects the home's exceptional size and efficiency.
At 351 m², this home is 54% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 755 m². That sounds odd, but the average is skewed by a few very large properties. In fact, this is the largest home currently for sale in West van Schaarsbergen, and its floor area is generous by any standard.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label A and another 25% have label A+. So this home is among the most efficient in the area, meaning lower heating costs and a smaller environmental footprint.
Residents describe it as 'super nice and quiet'. With only 640 inhabitants and an address density of 33 per km², it is one of the least urban areas in Arnhem. The one review gives it a 9.5 out of 10, praising the quiet and cosy atmosphere.
The closest supermarket is SPAR express at 1.8 km, followed by Albert Heijn at 2.5 km. The nearest school is Lichtenbeek (special education) at 630 m, and the closest primary school is Bernulphusschool at 2.3 km. A car is useful for most errands.

The plot measures 1,367 m². The listing does not explicitly mention a garden, but the large plot typically includes outdoor space.
