Buying a house in Veldhoven: the housing market in 2026
Veldhoven is wedged between Eindhoven and the green Kempen region, making it a municipality that combines two worlds: the dynamism of the Brainport region and the tranquillity of the Brabant countryside. With nearly 47,000 residents, it is no longer a village, but in many places it still feels like one. The proximity of ASML, Europe's largest technology company, attracts a constant stream of knowledge workers and expats, putting significant pressure on the housing market. The average purchase price over the past year was €619,853, with a range from €315,000 for a modest apartment to €2,650,000 for the most spacious villas. The WOZ value is €442,000, and 67% of the more than 20,000 homes are owner-occupied. That owner-occupied segment is popular: with 430 homes sold in the past year and an average living area of 136 m², it mainly concerns single-family homes. The market is tight. Homes change owners quickly, and overbidding is more the rule than the exception. At the top of this page you can see the current supply and the most recent selling time. Buurtje.nl bundles this supply from more than 1,500 sources and adds neighbourhood scores and resident reviews, so you can assess not only the home but also the neighbourhood.
The best neighbourhoods to buy a house in Veldhoven
Veldhoven has three main districts, each with its own character, price level and type of resident. Whether you are a first-time buyer looking for an affordable apartment or a family wanting space, the difference between the districts is greater than you might think at first glance. Below is an honest overview.
Veldhoven-centrum, the beating heart with the best amenities
The district Veldhoven, which includes the centre and surrounding neighbourhoods, scores an 8.0 from residents based on 11 reviews. That is the highest score in the municipality. Here you will find the Citycentrum shopping centre, the weekly market, the Kulturhus and a wide range of primary schools. Accessibility is excellent: via the Kempenbaan you are on the A2 or A67 within a few minutes. Purchase prices here are around or slightly above the municipal average, especially for the newer parts towards De Polders. One resident writes: "Nice, quiet neighbourhood with everything within walking distance. The mix of young and old makes it lively." Families and movers feel at home here. Check the housing supply in Veldhoven-centrum for the current situation.
Oerle, village living with its own identity
Oerle is the old church village south of the centre and has retained that village character. With a neighbourhood score of 7.8, residents particularly appreciate the sense of community and the green surroundings towards the Oerlese Bos. The housing supply mainly consists of spacious single-family homes from the 1970s and 1980s, supplemented by new-build projects. Prices are comparable to the municipal average, but here you often get more garden and space for your money. Oerle is popular with families who consciously choose a close-knit neighbourhood outside the centre. Check what is for sale in Oerle.
Noordelijk Woongebied, affordable and close to Eindhoven
The Noordelijk Woongebied borders directly on Eindhoven-Meerhoven and the High Tech Campus. With a neighbourhood score of 7.3 from 2 reviews, this district scores slightly lower than the rest, partly due to the somewhat higher traffic volume along the Kempenbaan. At the same time, this is the district where, as a first-time buyer or expat, you have the best chance of an affordable home or apartment. The flats and terraced houses from the 1960s and 1970s are the cheapest option in the municipality. The proximity of the ASML site and the campus makes it attractive for people working in the tech sector.
In addition to these three main districts, Veldhoven also has smaller neighbourhoods such as Zonderwijk, Meerveldhoven and d'Ekker, each with its own atmosphere. On the municipal page of Veldhoven you will find all ratings and reviews per neighbourhood, so you can compare specifically before planning a viewing.
What to look out for when buying a home in Veldhoven?
Firstly: look beyond just the centre. The Noordelijk Woongebied offers a better price-quality ratio, especially if you work at the High Tech Campus or ASML. The homes are older, but the location is hard to beat for commuters. Secondly: be prepared for a tight market. With an average purchase price of nearly €620,000 and much competition from dual-income earners in the Brainport region, overbidding is common. Make sure your financing is in order before you go viewing, preferably with a mortgage advisor who knows the local market. Thirdly: pay attention to accessibility per district. The Kempenbaan and the A2 slip road are good, but during rush hour traffic around the junction with the Sondervick can be quite congested. Check your daily route. Finally: use the neighbourhood scores and reviews on Buurtje.nl to compare districts objectively. The difference between a 7.3 and an 8.0 tells you something about how residents experience their daily living environment. Are you also considering renting a home in Veldhoven? The rental segment (33% of the stock) can be a stepping stone if buying is currently just too expensive.

The combination of city and greenery makes it complete." Safety (7.9) and sense of community (7.9) also score well.

Apart from the fact that I have unpleasant neighbours on both sides and that one of them (a couple) causes a lot of nuisance, when they are quiet it is lovely to live in such a senior home. The house is very dilapidated and has quite a few defects. The housing association does nothing about it.
Auto-translated to English by AICorrect and without problems
Auto-translated to English by AINice, after my divorce in 2015, I was well taken care of, because Zeelst has many cafés, I know some owners and they kept an eye out for living space. Eventually through them I got a converted office. They kept an eye on me, neighbours are pleasant... eventually through urgency I got a home, again in this neighbourhood... I live here very pleasantly and feel quite safe. Strips of green are well maintained and I'm close to a park
Auto-translated to English by AII appreciate how accessible everything is in my neighbourhood, but I do think it's a bit outdated; many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's wonderful living here. Everything is well organised, but the only problem is the cyclists and loitering youths in the centre.
Auto-translated to English by AISafe, fairly clean, nice. In terms of education, the Sondervick is not a good school… but that is really the school's fault/problem, they have bad teachers, poor guidance,
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a few years and don't have much to complain about. Shops are very close by, schools are nearby too. There's plenty in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, really. Everyone is nice and friendly. Just sometimes a few strange things.
