Living in Middelbeers: village character with a close-knit community

Middelbeers is one of the three Beersen in the municipality of Oirschot, together with Oostelbeers and the smaller Westelbeers. The village has around 2,760 inhabitants and feels exactly as you would expect from a Brabant church village: quiet, green and with strong social cohesion. The Beerseweg and Willibrordusstraat form the village centre, where you will find the Sint-Willibrorduskerk, a small Jumbo supermarket and a handful of catering establishments. You can do many daily errands locally, but for more extensive shopping you drive to Oirschot or Eersel.

The housing stock mainly consists of single-family homes, ranging from terraced houses from the 1970s and 1980s around the Kerkplein to detached and semi-detached houses on the village outskirts. New construction is limited, although the municipality of Oirschot is looking at infill locations. Anyone wanting to buy an apartment in Middelbeers will find that supply is very scarce; the village consists almost entirely of ground-based homes.

In terms of facilities, the village has primary school De Beerze, sports park De Neul with football club RKSV Beerse Boys and tennis club LTC Middelbeers. For secondary education, children must go to Oirschot or Best. The Beerze, the stream that flows through the rural area, offers beautiful walking and cycling routes towards the Beerzedal and the Oirschotse Heide.

Regarding accessibility, you have to be honest: Middelbeers is a village where you need a car. Bus line 18 runs towards Oirschot and Eersel, but the frequency is limited, especially in the evenings and at weekends. By car, via the provincial road N395, you can reach Oirschot in ten minutes and the A2 at Best in a quarter of an hour. Best NS station is about a fifteen-minute drive away and takes you to Eindhoven Centraal in half an hour.

Residents particularly appreciate the peace and community spirit. "You know your neighbours, people look out for each other and children just play outside on the street," writes a resident in a review. At the same time, the village character is not for everyone: young people sometimes miss entertainment and those who go out a lot or like urban amenities may find it too quiet here.

Compared to the rural areas around the village, such as the rural area of Middelbeers and the rural area of Westelbeers, the village centre offers more facilities within walking distance but smaller plots. In the scattered houses you find the larger detached homes with more land, which also explains the higher WOZ average at district level.

The village mainly attracts families looking for space at an affordable price compared to Eindhoven, and downsizers wanting a quiet living environment. First-time buyers with a budget under €375,000 will find little here; for them it may be worth also looking at rental homes in Middelbeers or comparing supply in Oostelbeers. Seniors wanting to downsize have limited options due to the lack of apartments. Keep in mind that supply is small and desirable homes sell quickly.
