The connection to the A12 makes those cities easily accessible by car; Veenendaal is about ten minutes' drive away. Public transport is available but limited, as is the case in most small Gelderland villages. A car of your own is not a luxury here but a practical necessity. The immediate surroundings do offer plenty of green: walking and cycling paths through the countryside are a fixed asset of the village, something that is also reflected in the high greenScore of 9.0.
Within the municipality, there are two sub-areas to examine further. The village centre can be found under Renswoude, while the rural area falls under Verspreide huizen. The latter category includes the detached houses and farmhouses outside the built-up area, which explain the higher price range of the band. The municipality itself also has information about living and amenities available via the official website of the municipality of Renswoude.
For whom is buying in Wijk 00 a good choice?

First-time buyers will notice that the entry price of €275,000 is at the lower end, but the average selling price of over €546,000 requires substantial equity or income.
