Living in De Beemd 1, Meierijstad

De Beemd 1 is a quiet residential neighbourhood on the edge of Schijndel, the former independent village that is now part of the Meierijstad municipality. The neighbourhood has a distinctly green and village-like character. The streets are spacious, there is plenty of greenery between the houses and the atmosphere is calm. This is not a neighbourhood where you see much activity on the streets in the evening; people live here deliberately for the peace and quiet.

The homes were largely built in the 1970s and 1980s and mainly consist of semi-detached houses and detached family homes with gardens. Apartments are hardly present in this part of the neighbourhood. The plots are generally spacious, which partly explains the higher selling prices despite the relatively lower WOZ values.

In terms of amenities, the neighbourhood is well equipped for daily use. The centre of Schijndel is within cycling distance and offers a Jumbo, a Lidl and various specialist shops. For children, there are primary schools in the immediate vicinity, including schools affiliated with the Catholic education network that is strongly represented in this region. Sports clubs such as football club SVO Schijndel and tennis club TV Schijndel are within easy reach. A GP practice and pharmacy are available in the village.

Accessibility by car is good. The N279, which connects Sint-Oedenrode with 's-Hertogenbosch, is a few minutes' drive away. Via the A59 you can reach Den Bosch in about twenty minutes. There is no train station in Schijndel itself; the nearest station is 's-Hertogenbosch or Boxtel, both accessible by bus or car. Bus line 74 connects Schijndel with Den Bosch. For cyclists, the neighbourhood is pleasant: the centre and primary schools can be reached without busy roads.

Residents of De Beemd 1 particularly appreciate the peace and space. On the De Beemd 1 neighbourhood page you can read reviews that confirm this picture. One resident writes: "It's wonderfully quiet here, the neighbours know each other and the children play safely on the street." Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited walking and cycling connections to the main roads and the fact that you really need the car for larger shopping trips or culture.

Anyone wanting to make a comparison within the district can also look at Boschweg Noordoost or Boschweg Zuidwest, neighbourhoods with a similar village character but sometimes a different type of housing supply. Those looking for more space and rural area might also consider Buitengebied Elderbroek.

Who is a home in De Beemd 1 interesting for?

The demographic composition of the neighbourhood says a lot about who lives there and who fits in well. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, followed by those aged 65 and over. Together they form more than half of the population. That fits the character of the neighbourhood: quiet, stable, with low turnover. Movers-up who grow from a terraced house to a more spacious semi-detached or detached home will find what they are looking for here, as will seniors who want to live comfortably and quietly without missing the city.

First-time buyers have a hard time in this neighbourhood. With selling prices from €495,000 and an average of over €600,000, buying a home in De Beemd 1 is not feasible without substantial equity or a high mortgage capacity. Anyone who still wants to live in Schijndel but has a lower budget would be better off looking at the wider supply in Schijndel or the rental homes in De Beemd 1 as an intermediate solution. Supply in the neighbourhood is limited anyway; anyone serious about buying would do well to act quickly when something becomes available.
