Living in De Scheifelaar, Meierijstad
De Scheifelaar is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the south side of Veghel, with a clear character of its own. The streets are spacious, the plots are large, and greenery is not an afterthought but a natural part of the streetscape. This is not a neighbourhood you drive through by chance: those who live here have consciously chosen to do so. The housing stock largely dates from the 1980s and 1990s, with a mix of semi-detached and detached houses. The architecture is solid and understated, without too much frills.
In terms of amenities, the location is favourable. The centre of Veghel, with shops, restaurants and the weekly market, is within cycling distance. For daily groceries, you can go to the supermarkets in the nearby neighbourhoods, and the Pastoor van Winkelstraat shopping centre offers additional options within a short distance. Primary schools are accessible within Veghel itself, and for secondary education, the Fioretti College is a well-known option in the area. Sports clubs are well represented in Veghel, with football, tennis and swimming facilities within reasonable distance. The neighbourhood borders green areas that invite walking and cycling.
Accessibility by car is a strong point: the A50 (towards Eindhoven and Nijmegen) and the A59 are quickly reachable via the junctions near Veghel. For those travelling by public transport, there are bus connections from Veghel towards Den Bosch and Eindhoven. The nearest train station is Veghel, about ten minutes by bike, with connections to 's-Hertogenbosch and Nijmegen.
Residents most appreciate the peace, space and green surroundings. On the neighbourhood page of De Scheifelaar you can read all reviews and neighbourhood scores. One resident writes: "It's quiet living here, the streets are tidy and the neighbours know each other. Ideal for those who want distance from the hustle and bustle, yet have everything within cycling distance." Criticisms sometimes focus on the limited walking distance to shops and the dependence on the car for larger groceries.
Compared to neighbouring neighbourhoods such as 't Ven Oost and 't Ven West, De Scheifelaar is on average more expensive and quieter. The Bloemenwijk offers a more varied supply in a lower price segment. Those looking for more space and rurality can also look at the Buitengebied Eerde. The demographic composition, with many 45-65 year olds and relatively few young families, gives the neighbourhood a mature, stable character. More background on the district can be found on the page about homes for sale in Veghel.
Does a home for sale in De Scheifelaar suit you?
De Scheifelaar primarily appeals to movers and established dual-income earners: people who are looking for space, want a large garden and don't need to watch every euro. With an average sale price of nearly €800,000 and an entry price of €550,000, this is not a neighbourhood for first-time buyers. The income level (average €52,800 per household) and the high proportion of highly educated residents (46%) confirm that picture. Seniors looking for a single-storey home or apartment will find little suitable supply here. The limited number of transactions (seven in a year) also means you need to be patient and able to act quickly when something becomes available. Overbidding is not uncommon in this segment. Those who want to be more flexible in budget or property type will find more choice in the broader home for sale market of Meierijstad.
