Living in Buitengebied Oene, Epe
Buitengebied Oene is not a neighbourhood in the traditional sense. It is a chain of farmsteads, detached homes and estates on the transition from the Veluwe to the IJssel valley. Anyone looking for a rental home here is not seeking urban dynamism but peace, space and nature within walking distance. The buildings are scattered, the plots are large and the homes are predominantly detached or semi-detached. You will not find new-build apartments or porch flats here. Renting an apartment in Buitengebied Oene is therefore virtually out of the question. It is about spacious family homes and country houses, often with a garden and sometimes with outbuildings.
The atmosphere is rural and subdued. The neighbourhood has 890 residents, the largest group of whom are between 45 and 65 years old. Families with children form the largest household type, and half of the residents are married. That says something about the character of the neighbourhood: it is not a place for students or starters who want to move quickly, but an environment for people who consciously choose peace and space.
Facilities in and around Buitengebied Oene
Buitengebied Oene itself has no supermarket, school or shopping centre. For that, you rely on the nearby village of Oene, which is a few minutes' drive or cycle away. In the centre of Oene you will find primary schools and a limited range of facilities. For larger groceries, secondary schools, a GP or sports facilities, you drive on to Epe or Vaassen. In Epe you will find, among other things, an Albert Heijn, various sports clubs and the Apeldoorn hospital is reachable in about 25 minutes by car. Nature is the biggest asset: the Veluwe literally starts at your doorstep, with walking and cycling paths that lead you deep into the forest.
Accessibility of Buitengebied Oene
By car, via the N794 you are quickly in Epe or towards the A50, which gives access to Apeldoorn (about 20 minutes) and Arnhem (about 35 minutes). Public transport is limited: there are bus services via the centre of Oene, but the frequency is low and the rural area itself is hardly served. A car is not a luxury here but a necessity. Cycling to the centre of Epe takes about 15 to 20 minutes along quiet country lanes. Parking is no problem at all: almost all homes have ample private parking space available.
Residents particularly appreciate the peace and nature. On the neighbourhood page of Buitengebied Oene, a resident writes: "You live here in the middle of nature, but Epe and Vaassen are easily reachable. It is exactly the balance we were looking for." Criticisms usually concern the limited public transport connections and the lack of daily facilities within walking distance. Anyone without a car will experience that as a serious disadvantage. Compared to Kern Oene, which offers more facilities within walking distance, the rural area is more deliberate and remote. But for those seeking that, there is little better in the region.
Does renting in Buitengebied Oene suit you as a tenant?
Buitengebied Oene is most suitable for families and couples who consciously choose a rural living environment, a spacious home and no urban hustle and bustle. The supply of rental homes in Buitengebied Oene is very limited: there are hardly any homes for rent, and when something becomes available, it goes quickly. So respond quickly if you see something and make sure your documents are in order, such as payslips from the last three months and an employer's statement. Social housing is not available here, so registering with a housing association is pointless for this neighbourhood. Anyone considering buying instead of renting can also look at the supply of homes for sale in Buitengebied Oene. Starters with a limited budget will find little here and are better off in Epe or Vaassen, where the supply is larger and more varied.
