Homes for sale in Cellesbroek, Kampen

House prices and market figures for Cellesbroek, Kampen

Cellesbroek is a buyer's neighbourhood par excellence: 59% of the more than 2,960 homes are owner-occupied, with the rest rented out via a housing association (31%) or private landlord (11%). The average WOZ value is €264,000, noticeably lower than the district average for Kampen (€289,000) and the municipal average of €314,000. This difference is largely due to the type of housing that dominates here: ground-floor terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s, solid but without the premium appeal of new-build elsewhere in the municipality.

On the owner-occupied market, prices over the past year have been significantly higher than the WOZ value suggests. Of the 34 homes sold, the average purchase price was €353,029, with a range of €205,000 to €515,000. With an average living area of 121 m², this works out at around €2,917 per square metre. So there is considerable variation: modest terraced houses at the lower end, larger corner houses and detached houses at the upper end.

Living in Cellesbroek, Kampen

Cellesbroek is located in the southwestern part of Kampen and feels like a neighbourhood that has found its identity. The street layout is typical of the expansion districts built in the 1970s and 1980s: quiet residential streets, wide pavements, green strips with ditches and canals that give the area a watery character. That water is not just decorative: it literally runs through the neighbourhood. Resident Henk van het Ende, who has lived there for twelve years, describes it as "ditches, canals, so also a nature-rich neighbourhood." His overall score of 9.0 speaks volumes.

The atmosphere is remarkably close-knit for a neighbourhood of nearly 7,000 residents. Spontaneous neighbourhood drinks, a neighbourhood BBQ, an active neighbourhood app and a clear sense of social control: these are recurring themes in resident reviews. Annelies describes the area as "quiet, child-friendly and reasonably spacious." She does, however, note that green maintenance could be better and that traffic on the Silene drives too fast. That is honest feedback that is recognisable in more Kampen residential areas from that period.

For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave Cellesbroek. Supermarkets, a GP and pharmacy are within walking or cycling distance. For a larger range of shops, Kampen city centre is about ten to fifteen minutes away by bike. In terms of education, the neighbourhood scores well: there are several primary schools in the immediate vicinity and secondary education is also close by. Residents rate education at 8.8, the highest sub-score of all categories.

Accessibility by car is good via the N764 towards the A28, and the connection to Zwolle can be made within twenty minutes. By bus, there are routes to the centre and Kampen station, although residents themselves are most positive about accessibility: an average score of 9.2. Parking can sometimes be a puzzle, as one reviewer notes, but no one finds it a nuisance.

Compared to neighbourhoods like Hanzewijk/Greente or Groene Hart, Cellesbroek has a slightly older housing stock, but also lower entry prices and a stronger sense of community. Those looking for more urban dynamism might also consider Binnenstad Kampen.
