Vollenhove, Steenwijkerland
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Jan van Dieststraat sits in a quiet part of Vollenhove, with a large garden and an A energy label. At 151 m² on a 296 m² plot, it offers more room than many homes in the area. The price of €449,000 is on the high side compared to other semi-detached houses in Steenwijkerland, but the combination of size and efficiency is rare here.
Vollenhove is a small town with a mix of ages, roughly equal shares of under-25s, families and over-65s. Most homes are owner-occupied and single-family. One resident describes the atmosphere as "FRIENDLY BUT ALONE": "Everyone is friendly to each other but there is nothing that connects them." That sums up a place where neighbours greet you but don't necessarily socialise. For peace and privacy, that can be a plus.
For bread and groceries, Aldi is just around the corner and PLUS is a five-minute walk. Primary schools are close: Christelijk Kindcentrum Het Kompas is on your doorstep, and Openbare Dalton Basisschool De Voorpoort is a couple of streets away. A GP is also within walking distance. The train station is 20 km away, so a car is essential for longer trips.

How residents experience their municipality
De Woldmeenthe is a nice place to live. It is green, quiet and safe. All amenities are within walking or cycling distance. A very nice area to grow up in, with many playgrounds, cycle paths, greenery and water. There is no problem with litter and the greenery is well maintained. The streets are also wide and very clear.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy neighbourhood and a safe neighbourhood, we really enjoy living here!!
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience in this neighbourhood is that it is one of the safest neighbourhoods in the Steenwijk area, although there is slight nuisance from drug dealing and junkies who go into, for example, the park at the popular pond.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, people are very much to themselves. Few playgrounds that look decent for small children. Very good schools though. An Albert Heijn and a snack bar and the centre a 20-minute walk away... Bus facilities I personally don't find very convenient.
Auto-translated to English by AITuk is a quiet place. The people are friendly but also keep to themselves. The only downside is the park near the Karre, where many drunk young people hang around. There is also often litter there and there are no bins nearby. But that's really the only major drawback. Tuk has a playground made from natural materials, which is good. Furthermore, it is easily accessible and you can do quite a lot here. You can go bowling, play tennis, go to the gym, a chip shop/bar, and more. It's a nice neighbourhood for families because there is also a primary school nearby and a secondary school is a 15-minute bike ride away.
Auto-translated to English by AIWonderfully quiet living. No buses running at the weekends.
Auto-translated to English by AIBy bike you're straight into De Weerribben or the woods. Giethoorn easily accessible
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful neighbourhood, child-friendly. Small village but not far from the towns of Steenwijk and Wolvega: 6 km! Wooded area but also Giethoorn a 20-minute drive away. Cycle to the Weerribben or swim in De Linde near Wolvega! Living in the heart; Willemsoord!
