Homes for sale in Blaarthem, Eindhoven

House prices and market figures Blaarthem, Eindhoven

The owner-occupied market in Blaarthem is relatively small but active. Of the 1,323 homes in the neighbourhood, only 33% are owner-occupied, the rest are rental properties, a large proportion of which are owned by housing corporations. This limited owner-occupied segment means that there is little supply on the market at any one time. In the past twelve months, 16 homes were sold, with an average purchase price of €435,000 and a range of €225,000 to €679,000. With an average living area of 91 m², this works out at approximately €4,780 per square metre. The WOZ value in Blaarthem is €296,000, almost equal to the average for the district Oud-Gestel (€295,000), but clearly below the Eindhoven average of €360,000. This difference lies in the type of housing: Blaarthem has relatively many porch apartments and smaller single-family homes from the 1960s and 1970s, alongside a limited number of larger detached houses that push up the upper limit.

Living in Blaarthem, Eindhoven

Blaarthem is a quiet, green neighbourhood on the southern edge of Eindhoven, nestled between the Genneperpark and the busier strips towards the centre. The buildings mostly date from the 1960s and 1970s: semi-detached houses, terraced houses and porch apartments alternate in streets that are not spectacular but functional and clear. There is little new construction, giving the neighbourhood a stable, somewhat timeless character.

Blaarthem's biggest asset is its location next to the Genneperpark. This park, covering over 100 hectares, offers space for runners, cyclists, playing children and people who simply want to get some fresh air. For a neighbourhood within the municipal boundaries of Eindhoven, that is a rare luxury. Residents greatly appreciate this: one of them writes: "The park around the corner makes all the difference; you sometimes forget you're living in the city."

Primary schools are available in and directly around Blaarthem, making the neighbourhood attractive for young families.

By car, the A2 and A67 are accessible via the Eindhoven Ring, although traffic can be heavier on the connecting roads during rush hour. Parking in the neighbourhood itself is generally not a problem.

Compared to neighbouring Genderdal, Blaarthem is quieter and more family-oriented. Bennekel-Oost has a similar structure but less green space right around the corner. Those looking for more urban dynamics can also look at Centrum or Oud-Stratum, although prices there are different. The municipality of Eindhoven publishes up-to-date information about facilities and developments in the neighbourhood via eindhoven.nl.

Who is a home in Blaarthem interesting for?

Blaarthem mainly appeals to young families and dual-income couples looking for greenery and peace without living far outside the city. The larger single-family homes are suitable for those moving up the property ladder; starters with a budget under €300,000 will find few options here, given the average selling price of €435,000. The limited supply means that homes sell quickly and that overbidding is not unusual. Those who want to be flexible or are still undecided can also look at the rental properties in Blaarthem as an intermediate option. Seniors looking to downsize sometimes find an apartment here, but the supply is limited.
