Living in Turfberg-Noord, Valkenswaard

Turfberg-Noord is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the north side of Valkenswaard, distinctly different in character from the bustling Centrum or the more compact Turfberg-Zuid. The neighbourhood largely consists of spacious single-family homes, semi-detached houses and detached houses, mostly built in the 1970s and 1980s. The streets are wide, there is plenty of greenery in the front and back gardens, and the atmosphere is subdued and residential. You won't find any hospitality or shopping bustle here; that is a deliberate choice for those who come to live here.

The location is one of its strongest points. To the north, the neighbourhood borders extensive nature areas towards the Dommel valleys, meaning walking and cycling in the green literally start on your doorstep. For daily shopping, residents quickly drive to the centre of Valkenswaard, where supermarkets such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo are located, or to the nearby shopping area at the Markt. The distance to the centre can be covered by bike in about ten minutes.

In terms of accessibility by car, the location is favourable: the N69 towards Eindhoven is quickly reached, limiting travel time to the city to about twenty minutes. Eindhoven also has the nearest train station; buses run from Valkenswaard to this station, although the frequency in the evenings is limited. Those dependent on public transport will notice that this is a car-oriented neighbourhood.

Families with children enjoy living here. Primary schools are within cycling distance, and the neighbourhood has a quiet character that parents appreciate for raising children. The largest age group consists of 45 to 65-year-olds (535 residents), followed by those aged 65 and over (420). This says something about the stability of the neighbourhood: people who move here tend to stay for a long time. This makes the supply scarce.

Residents particularly appreciate the peace and space. On the neighbourhood main page of Turfberg-Noord you will find all reviews and scores per category. One resident writes: "You live here quietly, have space around you and are still quickly in the centre or in nature. You don't get that combination everywhere." Criticism sometimes focuses on the limited walking and cycling infrastructure within the neighbourhood itself, and on the fact that there is little vibrancy for younger residents. Those seeking dynamism should look instead at Geenhoven or the Kloosterakkers en Dommelen district. But for those who consciously choose space, greenery and tranquillity, Turfberg-Noord offers exactly what they are looking for. More context about the wider area can be found on the page about Valkenswaard as a district.

Who is a home in Turfberg-Noord interesting for?

Turfberg-Noord is not a neighbourhood for first-time buyers. With an average purchase price of over €930,000 and homes starting at €539,000, buyers need substantial equity or a high income. The neighbourhood mainly attracts movers and people in the 45-plus life stage who are looking for space, peace and a good home, and are willing to pay for it. Families who consciously choose a green, safe environment with a bit more distance from the hustle and bustle fit in well here. Those unsure about buying or who prefer to explore the neighbourhood first can also look at rental homes in Turfberg-Noord. Let's be honest about the supply: few homes come onto the market here, and when they do, competition can be fierce.

What residents say about Turfberg-Noord
