De Kelen, Veldhoven
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Kievit sits in a leafy part of De Kelen, a residential neighbourhood where most homes were built between 1990 and 2010. With 235 m² of living space and a 539 m² plot, it is considerably larger than the average home in the area. The asking price of €985,000 is 55% above the neighbourhood average of €634,174, which reflects the extra space and the detached character, a rare find in a street where most properties are semi-detached or terraced. For comparison, detached houses in Veldhoven typically command a premium.
De Kelen is a spacious, green neighbourhood with a strong family feel. Nine out of ten homes are single-family houses, and 78% are owner-occupied. The population of around 3,960 is a mix of families with children and older residents, and the average household size is 2.4 people. One resident describes the area as 'accessible and close by', though they note that 'many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them'. The neighbourhood De Kelen has a low crime rate (80 incidents per year) and plenty of green space, a park is just a couple of streets away.
For daily shopping, the PLUS supermarket is on your doorstep, and there are several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. Primary schools are well represented: Openbare Basisschool Dick Bruna is just around the corner, and two other primary schools are within a five-minute walk. Secondary education is further away, about 4.7 km, so a bike or car is handy for older children. The municipality Veldhoven is well connected by road, and the nearest train station is 6.3 km away, making it a location that suits those who drive.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Kennis Makelaardij, Funda and Vastgoed Nederland. The energy label A means the home is very efficient, so heating costs should be manageable.

I appreciate how accessible everything is in my neighbourhood, but I do think it's a bit outdated; many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them.
