Living in Hommelbrink, Apeldoorn
Hommelbrink is a quiet, green neighbourhood in the northern part of Apeldoorn, built around 1995. It is not a neighbourhood that stands out for its hustle and bustle, but rather for its tranquillity, space and the feeling that everyone here has consciously chosen peace. Resident MdP describes it as a "fairly new neighbourhood (1995) with a pleasant living climate" and emphasises the cosiness and contact between neighbours. That is not marketing speak, but something you can noticeably see in the low building density and well-kept gardens.
The homes largely date from the 1990s and are spacious, with many detached and semi-detached houses on generous plots. Typical 1990s architecture, then: practical, well laid out, with garage and driveway. No historic buildings, but no outdated tenement blocks either. The neighbourhood looks well-maintained and the public space is in good condition.
In terms of amenities, Hommelbrink is not self-sufficient. The Anklaar shopping centre is a short bike ride away and offers a supermarket, pharmacy and various shops for daily groceries. For more extensive shopping, the centre of Apeldoorn is reachable within ten to fifteen minutes by bike or car. Primary schools and childcare are located in the immediate vicinity of the neighbourhood, which is practical for families. The nearby green strips and parks in the wider Noord area score highly with residents: greenery receives a 9.0 in the resident rating.
Accessibility by car is good. Via the Laan van Osseveld and the Kanaalzone, Hommelbrink connects quickly to the A1 and A50. The centre of Apeldoorn can be reached by bike in about ten minutes. Bus connections are available, although the neighbourhood is primarily designed for motorists and cyclists. There is no train station in the neighbourhood itself, but Apeldoorn station is easily accessible.
The overall resident score is 8.6 out of 10. Safety (9.0), sense of community (9.0) and greenery (9.0) score the highest. Accessibility (8.0) and amenities (8.0) are slightly lower, which is logical for a somewhat outlying residential neighbourhood. All scores and the full resident review can be read on the Hommelbrink page.
Compared to neighbouring communities such as De Parken or Loolaan-Noord, Hommelbrink is younger in design but similar in atmosphere: quiet, green and focused on owner-occupiers. Those looking for the more urban feel of Kerschoten will be less at home in Hommelbrink. For more information about the wider area, you can also look at the housing supply in Noord.
Who is a home for sale in Hommelbrink interesting for?
Hommelbrink mainly attracts movers and seniors looking for peace, space and a stable neighbourhood. The largest age group is 65-plus (285 of the 810 residents), followed by 45-65 years. First-time buyers and young families are in the minority, which is also logical given the prices: with an average selling price of €1,060,000, this is not a starter market. The limited number of transactions (three in the past year) means that supply is scarce and goes quickly. Anyone serious about buying would do well to act fast. If buying in this segment is financially just out of reach, it is worth also looking at the rental homes in Hommelbrink.
