Homes for sale in Verzetsheldenbuurt I, Oss

House prices and market figures Verzetsheldenbuurt I, Oss

House prices in Verzetsheldenbuurt I are at a different level than you might expect when looking at the WOZ value. The average WOZ value in the neighbourhood is €250,000, which is clearly lower than the district average of Schadewijk (€290,000) and well below the municipal average of Oss (€346,000). Yet actual sale prices over the past year were significantly higher: of the 29 homes sold, the average price paid was €330,121, with a range of €250,000 to €500,000. This difference between WOZ and sale price indicates that the market here is active and buyers are willing to pay more than the fiscal value suggests.

With an average sold area of 86 m², you get a price per square metre of approximately €3,840. That is affordable compared to many other Oss neighbourhoods, but you generally do not buy a large home here. The homeownership rate in the neighbourhood is 47%, meaning more than half of the housing stock is rented, of which 40% is through a housing association. The owner-occupied segment is therefore relatively limited. Check the current listings and average asking price at the top of this page for the most recent situation.

Living in Verzetsheldenbuurt I, Oss

Verzetsheldenbuurt I is a typical post-war urban neighbourhood in Schadewijk, with a mix of terraced houses and porch flats predominantly dating from the 1960s and 1970s. The street names refer to resistance fighters from the Second World War, giving the neighbourhood its own identity. The streetscape is functional and compact: houses are close together, gardens are modest in size, and the neighbourhood has a distinctly urban character without feeling busy or anonymous.

The location is practical. Shopping centre De Linden, the heart of Schadewijk's amenities, is within cycling distance and offers a supermarket, pharmacy and various daily services. For a larger range of shops, Oss city centre is easily accessible, about ten minutes by bike. Oss railway station is a similar distance away and provides direct connections to Den Bosch and beyond. By car, the A59 is quickly reachable via Oss's main roads, making the neighbourhood attractive for commuters heading to Den Bosch or Nijmegen.

Primary schools in the vicinity serve the younger residents, and the presence of 275 children under fifteen in the neighbourhood confirms that families do live here, although the largest group is 25 to 45-year-olds (780 people). Also notable is the relatively high number of single-person households (705), which fits the mix of smaller homes and housing association flats. Green spaces are present in the form of small parks and playgrounds, but extensive parks are a bit further away.

Residents appreciate the central location and affordable entry point. On the Verzetsheldenbuurt I neighbourhood page you can find reviews and neighbourhood scores. One resident writes: "The neighbourhood is quiet for an urban area and everything you need daily is nearby, but the homes are sometimes outdated and parking can be a puzzle in the evenings." That last point, evening parking pressure, is a recurring theme in reviews. Social cohesion is rated variably: in the owner-occupied segments it feels more village-like, in the flat sections more anonymous.

Compared to neighbouring areas such as Verzetsheldenbuurt II and the Vogelbuurt, Verzetsheldenbuurt I has a slightly higher rental pressure and a smaller owner-occupied market, but sale prices are in the same order of magnitude. Those looking for more green space and room might also consider the Roofvogelbuurt or Schadewijk Noord-Oost, although price differences are limited. More information about the municipality can also be found on the official website of the municipality of Oss.

Who is a home in Verzetsheldenbuurt I suitable for?

First-time buyers looking for an affordable first home in a well-connected Oss neighbourhood can find something here. The entry price of €250,000 is realistic for a smaller terraced house. Those moving up who prioritise space and modern finishes will find the supply more limited: most homes are compact and date from an older construction period, which may mean renovation is needed. The average income in the neighbourhood (€28,700) and the proportion of highly educated residents (15%) are below the municipal average, but that says nothing about you as an individual buyer. Be honest: the supply of owner-occupied homes is limited and properties sell quickly. If in doubt, you could also consider rental homes in Verzetsheldenbuurt I as a temporary alternative to get to know the neighbourhood first.

What residents say about Verzetsheldenbuurt I
