Geesteren: green, quiet, and strong sense of community

Living in Geesteren feels different from living in a larger town. The village has a distinct character: lots of greenery, little traffic, and a community where people still know each other. On the Geesteren neighbourhood page, residents rate the village an 8.4 out of 10. Accessibility (9.0), greenery (9.0), education (9.0), and beauty (even a 10) score notably high. One resident describes the village as a place where you can truly unwind, with well-maintained streets and an environment that invites you to go outside. Amenities score lower at 6.0, which is fair: you don't have a large supermarket around the corner for everything here.

For daily groceries, residents rely on local shops in the centre of Geesteren or on larger towns in the area. Children can attend the primary school in the village itself. Geesteren is well-equipped for sports: there are active football and tennis clubs in the village, and the surrounding countryside is excellent for cycling, walking, and horse riding. The rural area around Geesteren, including the scattered buildings found at Verspreide huizen Geesteren, gives the village a rural character not found in urban environments.

In terms of accessibility, Geesteren scores surprisingly well for a village of this size. Via the N349 and N743, you can quickly reach Almelo (about 20 minutes' drive) and Enschede (about 30 minutes). There is no train station in the village itself, but in Almelo you can catch the intercity. Bus services run through the town, although a car is indispensable for most residents. The neighbourhoods Geesteren noord and Geesteren zuid each have their own character within the village, which can help narrow down the search for a specific type of home or environment. Those looking for more urban amenities can also consider the larger town Tubbergen or surrounding villages such as Albergen and Vasse.

Who is a home for sale in Geesteren suitable for?

Geesteren mainly attracts families and home-movers looking for space, a garden, and who are willing to make a trip for daily amenities. With an average sale price of over €582,000, buying in Geesteren is not an entry-level market for starters with a limited budget. In addition to the purchase price, also consider additional costs such as transfer tax (2% for non-first-time buyers), notary fees, and possible renovation costs for older homes.

The rental share of 27% offers some choice, although that supply is also limited.
