This 1929 detached house on Homeruslaan sits in a leafy part of Zeist, with a large 1000 m² plot that gives it real presence.

Frequently asked questions
About Homeruslaan 4, Zeist
Is €1,795,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price is 28% above the neighbourhood average of €1,403,500, and the floor area (179 m²) is 32% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 262 m². However, the plot is a generous 1000 m², which is unusual for the area. Whether the price is fair depends on how much you value the large garden and the potential to extend.
What is the energy label G likely to mean for running costs?
Energy label G is the lowest rating, so the house is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating bills, especially in winter. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, 38.5% are D or lower, so G is at the bottom end. Renovation to improve the label would be a significant investment.
How does the floor area compare to other homes in the neighbourhood?
At 179 m², this house is 32% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 262 m² for homes currently for sale. However, the plot is 1000 m², which is much larger than typical. The house itself is compact, but the grounds offer space for a possible extension, subject to planning permission.
What is the neighbourhood like for families?
The Lyceumkwartier is family-friendly, with 37% of households having children. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, including Christelijk Lyceum Zeist just 258 m away. The area is quiet, with mostly single-family homes and a low crime rate (147 total crimes).
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 4.5 km away. That's about a 10-minute drive or a 20-minute bike ride. For daily commuting, a car or bicycle is more practical than walking.
What supermarkets are nearby?
The closest supermarkets are Hoogvliet (893 m) and Jumbo (949 m), both within a 10-minute walk. There are also MCD, Lidl and another Jumbo within 1.5 km, so you have plenty of choice for daily groceries.
Is the house a monument or listed building?
