Oudheusden, Heusden
NeighbourhoodThis is a spacious, newly built detached house from 2021, finished to a high standard with an A+++ energy label. It sits on a 535 m² plot in Oudheusden, a village in the municipality Heusden. With a price of €899,000, it is the most expensive of the nine homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 81% above the average asking price of €496,000, so it is on the high side, but the size, age and efficiency are exceptional for the area.
Oudheusden has around 2,720 residents, mostly families and couples. Based on three reviews, opinions are divided. One resident says: "We have a beautiful apartment but the neighbourhood is absolutely nothing, bad, loitering youths harassing neighbours." Another notes: "Still a lot to improve, traffic safety is poor, with speeding cars and delivery vans despite the woonerf designation. Recently, labour migrants and emigrants dominate the housing market, and they have no connection with their neighbours." A third resident calls it "a nice place to grow up, with many playgrounds and primary schools, but public transport is limited, the bus to Den Bosch runs every 30 minutes, and other places are only reachable by an unreliable Buurtbus." The neighbourhood has a stable core but faces challenges with integration and traffic. For more context, see detached houses in Heusden.
For your daily shopping, the Coop is just around the corner, while Aldi and Jumbo are a short drive away. There are two primary schools within walking distance: BS De Dromenvanger is on your doorstep, and RKBS Th J Rijken is a couple of streets away. The nearest secondary school is 6 km away, so you will need a car or bus for older children. The village centre with a restaurant and library is a five-minute walk, and the park is a ten-minute walk. The train station is 15 km away, so a car is essential for longer journeys.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Staete - Vlijmen. The agent has provided full details on the property, including floor area, year of construction and energy label.

Bad, loitering youths harassing neighbours. I can't really say it's safe, they tear through the streets with cars or fatbikes. Preferably with phone in hand. Police hardly ever check anything.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the Hamelpark and the adjoining streets are concerned, investment should be made in traffic safety. Although all of Oudheusden is designated as a "woonerf", for some it seems more like a racetrack. How fast can I drive past the speed-reducing measures such as speed bumps and road narrowings? The delivery services are also to blame for this. The neighbourhood has many children and motorists do not seem to take this into account, and it will go wrong one day. For a long time, the neighbourhood had a stable core of residents. Recently, labour migrants and emigrants dominate the housing market, and that is not a good prospect. They have no connection with their neighbours. As a result, the gap between current residents and newcomers will widen until everyone has left the neighbourhood. A missed opportunity for the municipality of Heusden to put a stop to this early on. This battle is lost. Not recommended for anyone looking for peace and cosiness.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's nice to grow up in Oudheusden. There are many playgrounds, several primary schools, and the library is accessible. The main downside is the accessibility of Oudheusden by public transport. The bus goes to Den Bosch once every 30 minutes, but places like Waalwijk and Drunen are only reachable by the Buurtbus, which doesn't always run on time. If you want to travel outside the immediate area, you quickly become dependent on a car. Additionally, I think there has been a lot of litter on the streets in recent months. That's always a shame.

However, this is a recently built (2021) detached house with an A+++ energy label, which is rare in the area, only 11% of the local stock has label A+.

Oudheusden has many families, about 445 households with children, and several playgrounds and primary schools. However, resident reviews mention issues with traffic safety and loitering youths. One resident says it is "a nice place to grow up" with good facilities, while another warns of speeding cars and a lack of community cohesion. It is a mixed picture, so visiting the area yourself is recommended.
The Coop supermarket is 400 metres away, just a five-minute walk. Aldi and Jumbo are about 3 km away. The nearest primary school, BS De Dromenvanger, is 200 metres from the door. A second primary school, RKBS Th J Rijken, is 3 km away. Secondary schools are further, the nearest is 6 km, so a car or bus is needed for older children.
Public transport is limited. The nearest train station is 15 km away. A bus to Den Bosch runs every 30 minutes, but other destinations like Waalwijk and Drunen are only served by a Buurtbus that does not always run on time. Residents say you quickly become dependent on a car for travel outside the immediate area.
The plot is 535 m². The listing does not explicitly mention a garden, but a plot of this size typically includes outdoor space. You would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
