Zeelst, Veldhoven
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Gareel sits in a quiet part of Zeelst, a neighbourhood where green strips and a nearby park make it feel more spacious than the urban density figures suggest. With 160 m² of living space on a 439 m² plot, it's a substantial family home. The asking price of €750,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €669,029, but detached homes are scarce here, only 35 are currently for sale. For context, detached houses in Veldhoven typically command a premium.
Zeelst has a mixed reputation, based on two reviews. One resident says: "Zeelst, you won't want to leave, nice, after my divorce in 2015, I was well taken care of, because Zeelst has many cafés, I know some owners and they kept an eye out for living space." Another is less positive: "I don't feel safe walking on the street because I'm afraid of running into people I've had problems with. I do have a nice street and house." The neighbourhood has a high proportion of families with children (765 households) and a large share of over-65s (1,575), giving it a mixed age profile. Most homes are owner-occupied (79%) and single-family (81%). The neighbourhood Zeelst is moderately urban, with an address density of 1,683 per km².
For daily shopping, Nettorama and SPAR are both just around the corner, while Lidl and Albert Heijn are a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Zeelsterhof is a couple of streets away, and Basisschool 't Slingertouw is a ten-minute walk. A park is on your doorstep, and a GP and restaurant are also just around the corner. The municipality Veldhoven offers good local amenities, though secondary schools and the train station are further out.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Van de Schans Makelaardij and Funda. The agent has provided full details on the property, including floor area, year of construction, and energy label B.

Nice, after my divorce in 2015, I was well taken care of, because Zeelst has many cafés, I know some owners and they kept an eye out for living space. Eventually through them I got a converted office. They kept an eye on me, neighbours are pleasant... eventually through urgency I got a home, again in this neighbourhood... I live here very pleasantly and feel quite safe. Strips of green are well maintained and I'm close to a park
