Centrum, Best
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. A detached house from 1936, set on a generous plot in the heart of Best. With 743 m² of living space, it is exceptionally spacious, 327% larger than the average home in the neighbourhood. The asking price of €2,300,000 is 210% above the local average of €741,156, making it the most expensive of the 16 homes currently for sale in the area. For context, detached houses in Best typically command a premium, but this one is in a league of its own.
The home sits in the neighbourhood Centrum, the historic core of Best. It is a compact, urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses (2,101 per km²). The population is older, with half of residents aged 65 or over, and many live alone, 610 of the 1,595 inhabitants are single-person households. One resident sums it up: "There's plenty to do. The street in front of my house is busy on some days. And otherwise quiet, and on Sundays you can hear the church bells ringing and the cheaper fair." The neighbourhood has a mix of housing, though only 13% are single-family homes, and 40% are owner-occupied.
For everyday errands, you are well placed. The Aldi is just around the corner, and the PLUS is a couple of streets away. Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. For families, there are several primary schools within walking distance: Kindcentrum Platijn and De Zevensprong are both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Best offers a compact centre with restaurants, a library and a park all within a few minutes' walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including ERA Makelaardij Ed Willems and Ed Willems Makelaardij.

About Nieuwstraat 7, Best
The asking price is 210% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€741,156) and is the highest of the 16 homes currently for sale in Centrum. However, the home is also exceptional: 743 m² of living space on a 1,265 m² plot, which is 327% larger than the average home in the area. Whether it is fair depends on how you value that extra space and the detached character in a neighbourhood where only 13% of homes are single-family.
The home has energy label C. That is a middling score, not as efficient as the newer homes in the area (23.5% of homes in Centrum were built after 2010, and 61% have label A or better), but better than the 11% with label D or lower. With a home of this size, heating costs will be significant, but label C is a reasonable starting point for a 1936 property.
The living area of 743 m² is 327% larger than the neighbourhood average of 174 m². The plot of 1,265 m² is also well above average. This is by far the largest home currently for sale in Centrum, the next largest among the 16 listings is likely much smaller. If you need space, this is unmatched in the area.
You have three supermarkets within a five-minute walk: Aldi at 88 metres, PLUS at 99 metres, and Albert Heijn at 234 metres. There is also an Ekoplaza at 410 metres. For a village centre, that is excellent, you can do your daily shopping without a car.
Yes, several primary schools are within walking distance. Kindcentrum Platijn (882 m) and De Zevensprong (902 m) are both about a ten-minute walk. Immanuel is at 1.2 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.2 km away, so a bike or car is needed for older children.
The train station is 0.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting to Eindhoven or further afield.
The neighbourhood recorded 130 total crimes in the latest data. That is a moderate figure for a village centre. The area is generally considered safe, though the busy street mentioned by a resident may attract some petty crime.
