Living in Lasonder Zeggelt, Enschede
Lasonder Zeggelt is located in the eastern part of Binnensingelgebied, close to the centre of Enschede but with a character that clearly feels different from the city centre itself. The neighbourhood has a relatively green and quiet profile for a central area: wide streets, more space between homes, and a mix of older villas and post-war family homes. It is not an anonymous residential area, nor a bustling urban neighbourhood. Those seeking peace and quiet with urban amenities within cycling distance are well placed here.
The housing stock largely consists of homes built between the 1950s and 1980s, with occasional newer infill. Detached houses and semi-detached homes are well represented, which partly explains the higher average purchase price. The streets around Zeggelt Park give the neighbourhood a green appearance, although green space scores a 7 in resident reviews, somewhat more modest than other categories.
In terms of amenities, the location is strong. The centre of Enschede, with the Oude Markt, Van Heekplein and all associated shops and hospitality venues, is a short cycle away. For daily groceries, there are supermarkets in the immediate vicinity, including options towards the centre and along the main roads. Primary and secondary schools are easily accessible; residents even give education a score of 10. Sports facilities are available via nearby sports clubs and the extensive cycling network towards the Twente countryside.
Accessibility is excellent, and this is also reflected in the figures: accessibility scores a 10 in resident reviews. Enschede Central Station is a short cycle away, with direct connections to Hengelo, Almelo and via the Intercity to Amsterdam. Several bus routes run through or past the neighbourhood. By car, the connection to the A35 is quickly reached, which suits commuters to Almelo or Hengelo well.
Resident Micha describes it as "a cosy, open and above all beautiful neighbourhood in the heart of Enschede" and gives the neighbourhood an 8.9. The community score of 6 is the only point that lags somewhat, suggesting that the neighbourhood is not particularly close-knit or active in neighbourhood initiatives. That fits the profile: many single-person households (670 of the approximately 1,000) and a relatively young population between 25 and 45. People enjoy living here, but the neighbourhood does not naturally organise itself. See all reviews and neighbourhood data on the page for Lasonder Zeggelt.

Who is a home in Lasonder Zeggelt interesting for?

With an average purchase price of €494,000 and an income level of €36,500 per household, this is not a starter neighbourhood. Starters who still want to buy in this area would do better to look at the lower end of the range or first consider rental homes in Lasonder Zeggelt as an intermediate step. The limited supply (19 sales in a year) means that homes here do not stay on the market for long. Overbidding is realistic for desirable properties.

I have always felt at home here. From the moment I was born, I already screamed “Het Zeggelt, that's where I feel at home!”. Every morning when I wake up here, I bring cookies to all the residents of our street. Often no one opens the door, but then I just throw them over the fence.
