A spacious apartment in the heart of Roden
This apartment on Kanaalstraat sits right in the centre of Roden, with shops and cafés just around the corner. The listing did not state a year of construction, so some details about the building's age were missing. At 215 m², the home was 30% larger than the neighbourhood average, and with an A++ energy label it was exceptionally efficient, only 12% of homes for sale in the area had A+ or better. The last known asking price of €529,000 was in line with the median of €525,000 for Roden, making it a fair deal for the space and efficiency. For more context, see apartments in Noordenveld. This home has not been online since 17 August 2026.
Roden, a mixed neighbourhood with strong community
Roden is a sizeable village with over 7,300 residents, where older people (65+) make up a large share and many households are singles or couples without children. Two residents have reviewed the area: one calls it "a nice neighbourhood with a strong sense of community" and appreciates living right in the centre, though notes that houses can be noisy. Another describes it as a "quiet neighbourhood that is slowly deteriorating" in terms of footpath maintenance and overgrown greenery. So while the community spirit is there, upkeep of public spaces is a point of concern. For more on the area, visit municipality Noordenveld.

For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, Jumbo and Aldi are just around the corner, and Lidl is a five-minute walk away. Families with young children have Basisschool De Rank within a couple of streets away, while Openbare Basisschool de Marke is also a short walk. A GP and a restaurant are both just around the corner, and the library and a park are a ten-minute walk. The nearest train station is 15 km away, so a car or bus is needed for longer journeys.
