Living in Lunteren: village character with Veluwe space
Lunteren is a village you understand best if you cycle through it on a Sunday morning. It is quiet, green and manageable, but certainly not boring. With nearly 13,830 residents, it is one of the larger settlements in the municipality of Ede, and you notice that in the amenities. In the centre, you will find two supermarkets (Albert Heijn and Jumbo), a GP practice, pharmacy, dentist and various small shops along the Dorpsstraat. There are several primary schools, including De Driesprong and De Schakel, and for secondary education, children go to Ede or Barneveld. For sports, there is plenty of choice: football club VV Lunteren, tennis club De Bosrand and swimming pool De Brink are all within the village.
On the neighbourhood page for Lunteren, residents rate the village a striking 9.9 out of 10. Safety, green spaces, beauty and amenities all score a 10. The only category that scores slightly lower is community spirit, with a 9. Residents particularly appreciate the combination of tranquillity and accessibility. As one reviewer sums it up: the village offers everything you need without the hustle and bustle of the city. That appreciation is not surprising if you know the area. The forests of the Lunterse Buurtbos are within walking distance, and towards De Veenen and Nederwoud, the landscape becomes open and agricultural.
In terms of accessibility, Lunteren has its own train station on the Valleilijn (Ede-Wageningen towards Amersfoort), with several trains per hour. The travel time to Amersfoort is about 25 minutes, to Utrecht around 45 minutes. By car, you reach the A30 in a few minutes, and via the A1 you are quickly in Amersfoort or Apeldoorn. Bus lines connect the village with Barneveld and Ede. It is not Randstad-level accessibility, but for a Veluwe village it is above average. The municipality of Ede is also investing in cycling connections between the settlements, making commuting by bike to Ede centre more realistic.
Which buyers is Lunteren interesting for?
The largest group of households in Lunteren consists of families with children (2,045 households), and that is precisely the target group that feels most at home here. Good primary schools, a safe environment and plenty of outdoor space make it attractive to buy a home here. But be realistic: with an average purchase price of over €655,000, buying a home in Lunteren is not for starters on a median income. For them, buying an apartment in Lunteren in the lower price range (from €119,000) could be an option, although that supply is limited. Upsizers and seniors looking for space will find more opportunities here. Keep in mind additional costs such as transfer tax (2%), notary and valuation fees. Overbidding is not uncommon in this village. If you find the purchase prices too high, you can also look at rental homes in Lunteren, although the rental supply at 23% of the stock is quite small.
