Leusderheide, Soest
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with real presence. Set on a generous plot in Soesterberg, the 1923 villa combines period character with a modern energy label B. At €1,995,000 it is the most expensive of the 14 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits well above the local average asking price of €744,532, a reflection of its size and land. For context, detached houses in Soest are rare, and this one stands out.
Leusderheide is a quiet, green pocket of Soesterberg with just 450 residents. It is a very rural area, the address density is low, and almost all homes (97%) are single-family houses, mostly owner-occupied (86%). The population is a mix of ages, with a slight tilt towards 25-45 year olds. There are no neighbourhood reviews available, so the picture comes from the data: a small, close-knit community where peace and space are the main draws. The Leusderheide neighbourhood is one of the least urbanised parts of the municipality.
Daily errands require a car or bike. The nearest supermarket, a SPAR express, is a couple of streets away, and a full-size PLUS is a ten-minute drive. For school runs, Kindcentrum de Startbaan (primary) is about a five-minute drive, while secondary schools like Van Lodenstein College are within a couple of kilometres. A restaurant is just around the corner, and the train station is 4.8 km away, fine for occasional trips but not a daily commute. The municipality of Soest covers a largely green, residential area.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Hulstkamp Christie's Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

About Amersfoortsestraat 97, Soesterberg
The asking price is 168% above the neighbourhood average of €744,532, but this home is exceptional: 270 m² of living space on a 1,850 m² plot, built in 1923 with energy label B. It is the most expensive home currently for sale in Leusderheide. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the space, character and privacy, the market data shows it is in a league of its own.
At 270 m², the living area is 53% larger than the neighbourhood average of 176 m². Combined with the 1,850 m² plot, this is a very spacious property by local standards.
The home has energy label B, which is good for a 1923 property. It means the home is reasonably efficient, though older homes often need attention to insulation. In the neighbourhood, 23% of homes have label B, and another 23% have label A.
The nearest train station is 4.8 km away, so you would need a car or bike to get there. It is not within walking distance for a daily commute.
The closest primary school is Kindcentrum de Startbaan at 2.6 km, and secondary schools like Van Lodenstein College are about 1.9 km away. There are 30 schools within 5 km, so plenty of choice.
With only 22 recorded crimes in the area, Leusderheide is a very safe neighbourhood. The low population density and rural character contribute to a peaceful environment.
The plot is 1,850 m², which is very large. While the listing does not specify a garden, the size of the land suggests ample outdoor space.
