Oostrum, Venray
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Buskensven sits in the quiet village of Oostrum, part of the municipality of Venray. With a generous plot of 5185 m², there is plenty of room for a large garden, a swimming pool or even a small paddock. The home itself offers 195 m² of living space spread over two floors, built in 1975 and with energy label D. At €1,300,000, the asking price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Venray, but the exceptional plot size explains the premium.
Oostrum is a small village with around 2,500 residents, where most homes are owner-occupied (74%) and the vast majority are single-family houses (91%). The population is mixed: many families with children, but also a significant number of older residents. The village has a low urban density (407 addresses per km²), so it feels spacious and green. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS data shows a low crime rate (193 total offences), which suggests a safe environment. The municipality Venray manages the area and maintains the public spaces well.
For your daily shopping, you can walk to Basisschool De Meulebeek, which is just under a kilometre away. The nearest supermarkets are a couple of streets away: a PLUS, Jumbo and Lidl are all within a five-minute drive. There are several primary schools within a few kilometres, including De Meulebeek and EigenWijs. The train station is just over a kilometre away, so you can easily reach Venray or further afield. For a restaurant or a park, you'll need to drive a few minutes, but the peace and quiet of the countryside more than makes up for it.

About Buskensven 1, Oostrum
The asking price of €1,300,000 is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Venray, but the plot of 5,185 m² is exceptionally large. Homes with such a generous plot are rare, so the price reflects the land value more than the house itself. Without comparable sales data for this specific street, it's hard to say exactly, but the size of the plot is a major factor.
The energy label is D, which is average for a home built in 1975. This means the home is reasonably insulated but not as efficient as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like double glazing or better insulation could bring the label up and reduce bills.
The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk or a 5-minute cycle. This makes it easy to travel to Venray or connect to the wider rail network.
The closest primary school is Basisschool De Meulebeek, just under a kilometre away. Other options within a few kilometres include Basisschool EigenWijs and De Kruudwis. For secondary education, the nearest school is 3.8 km away, so a bike or car is needed.
Oostrum has a low crime rate, with 193 total offences recorded. This is well below the national average for a village of this size. The area feels safe and is popular with families and older residents alike.
The plot is 5,185 m², which is enormous for a detached home. While the listing doesn't specify the garden layout, such a large plot offers plenty of space for a lawn, patio, vegetable garden, or even a small orchard. You'll have ample outdoor space to enjoy.
