Living in Zuidereng, Huizen

Zuidereng is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the southern edge of Huizen, with a character best described as spacious and understated. The streets are wide, the gardens are large, and traffic does not pass through. Anyone moving here from a busy city will immediately notice the difference: it is quiet here in a way that takes some getting used to, but which you quickly grow attached to.

The housing stock largely dates from the 1960s and 1970s, with occasional newer infill. Detached houses and semi-detached homes dominate the streetscape, with spacious plots and plenty of greenery between the houses. These are homes with character: not the sleek new-build of elsewhere, but houses with a history, often already significantly improved by the current residents.

For daily shopping, you can quickly drive or cycle to the Oostereng shopping centre, a short distance from the neighbourhood. For a wider range, the centre of Huizen is easily accessible. Children in the neighbourhood attend primary schools in the immediate vicinity; for secondary education, there are schools in Huizen itself. Those who are sporty can join the various clubs that Huizen has to offer, including football, tennis and swimming. The Gooimeer lake is within cycling distance and offers space for walking, water sports and simply getting some fresh air.

In terms of accessibility, Zuidereng relies on the car or bicycle for most journeys. Bus services run from Huizen towards Hilversum and Bussum, from where you have train connections to Amsterdam and Utrecht. By car, you can quickly reach the main road network via the A27 and A1. Huizen does not have its own train station, but Naarden-Bussum station is about a ten-minute drive away. Those who commute daily to Amsterdam or Utrecht can expect a travel time of 40 to 60 minutes by public transport.

Residents appreciate the peace, space and green surroundings. On the Zuidereng neighbourhood page you can read all the reviews and neighbourhood scores. One resident writes: 'It's wonderfully quiet here, the neighbours know each other and the children play outside. But for everything you need, you do have to get in the car.' That last point is an honest one: Zuidereng is not a walkable neighbourhood. If you want to do everything by bike, you have to reckon with somewhat longer distances.

Compared to neighbouring Sijsjesberg, Zuidereng has a similarly quiet character, but with slightly larger homes and plots on average. For a broader comparison in Huizen, you can also look at Oude Dorp for a more village-like character, or Erica en Tafelberg for a different atmosphere on the edge of the municipality. More information about the municipality can be found on the website of the municipality of Huizen.

For whom is a home in Zuidereng a good choice?

Zuidereng mainly attracts families seeking space and movers who consciously choose a larger home with a substantial garden. The large group of over-65s (720 out of 2,130 residents) shows that seniors also like to stay here, often in the detached home they have lived in for decades. First-time buyers largely miss out in Zuidereng: with an average selling price of over a million euros, a home here is out of reach without substantial equity. Be prepared to bid above the asking price, as supply is limited and demand remains stable. Those considering renting as an intermediate step can visit the page with rental homes in Zuidereng, although that supply is also limited due to the high owner-occupancy rate.
