Auto-translated to English by AIThe Vogelbuurt is nicely located, the Ellekoot is nearby and there are plenty of primary and secondary schools within cycling distance. There is a lot of greenery (Ruisseveen), many playgrounds, enough dog walking spots & dog poop bag poles. There are many houses, without it feeling cramped. I don't have many connections in the neighbourhood myself, but also no negative experiences. All in all, very satisfied! Definitely recommended for families or cohabiting couples.
Auto-translated to English by AII have little contact with neighbours, but occasionally speak to someone. Never had any problems. Nice neighbourhood, lots of playgrounds, close to a shopping centre, plenty of dog walking spots, nice walks in the "nature" in het Ruisseveen.

About Oeverzwaluw 18A, Veenendaal
The asking price is 18% above the neighbourhood average of €592,833, but this home is larger and detached, most homes in Vogelbuurt are terraced or semi-detached. The price per m² works out at about €4,887, which is slightly above the local average of €4,733. Given the scarcity of detached homes in Veenendaal, the price reflects the property type and size.
The home has energy label C. That means it has reasonable insulation and double glazing, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A, so this one is a bit less efficient than the newer stock. Still, label C is a solid middle ground for a house built in 1983.
Vogelbuurt is very family-oriented, with many households with children and plenty of playgrounds. Residents mention the nearby Ruisseveen nature area for walks, and there are several primary schools within walking distance. The area feels spacious despite the number of houses, and dog owners will find plenty of walking spots.
The nearest train station is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That gives you direct connections to Utrecht and beyond.
In the Vogelbuurt, sold homes took an average of 29 days to sell. That's fairly quick, indicating steady demand. With only three homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, competition can be noticeable.
