The same resident notes that despite some unpleasant experiences, they "enjoy the surroundings of Voorst." The municipality Voorst covers a wider area of green landscapes and scattered hamlets.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarkets are a couple of streets away: SPAR and Coop are both around 4.5 km, so you'll need a car or bike. Primary education is a ten-minute walk away at OBS J.H. Isings, while secondary schools are further afield, Kompaan College is about 4 km. The train station is a five-minute walk, handy for trips further afield. A restaurant is just around the corner, and a GP is within walking distance too.

Very good · 1 resident
My boyfriend and I moved into this neighbourhood at the end of June, into our first home. The first few weeks were all very nice and cosy until August. The owner of Voskamp Textiel intimidated me by contacting my employer because I parked a work van in front of her shop, which is laid out as a public parking space. I then reported this to enforcement and spoke to her personally about her behaviour, telling her they would come. In September there was the neighbourhood BBQ. Again we had a nice time with the neighbours, but that too was short-lived. After asking in the neighbourhood app if people could keep an eye on their cats because our garden was being used as a toilet by neighbourhood cats, I was intimidated by a few households who thought I should move back to the west. This intimidation continued in writing until Christmas Eve. Since then it has fortunately been a bit quieter. Despite having very unpleasant neighbours, we enjoy the surroundings of Voorst and unfortunately also enjoy our home a bit less because it has many hidden defects and costs a lot of money.

About Kerkstraat 21, Voorst (Gem. Voorst)

The price per m² works out at about €4,229, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,728. So it's on the high side, but the size and character may justify it.
