Oude Vlijmenseweg 70
De Schutskamp, Den Bosch
AreaA semi-detached home with character
This 1937 semi-detached house on Oude Vlijmenseweg sits in a leafy part of Den Bosch. With 121 m² of living space and a 500 m² plot, it offers generous proportions for a home of this age. The energy label is F, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €450,000, the asking price is a touch above the neighbourhood average of €435,615, but the larger-than-usual plot and the fact that only 13 homes are currently for sale in De Schutskamp suggest it's in line with the market. For context, this property type is one of the more common in Den Bosch, you can see other semi-detached houses in Den Bosch for comparison.

Frequently asked questions
About Oude Vlijmenseweg 70, 'S-Hertogenbosch
Is €450,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price of €450,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €435,615 and the median of €400,000. However, this home has a larger-than-average plot (500 m² vs. an average of 106 m² in the neighbourhood) and is a semi-detached house, which typically commands a premium. With only 13 homes for sale in De Schutskamp, it's not a buyer's market, but the price is in line with what similar properties have sold for recently.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have high heating costs, especially given its 1937 construction. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F label is not unusual for a pre-war house. You should budget for higher energy bills compared to a more modern home.
How is the neighbourhood for families?
De Schutskamp has a mix of residents, with about 600 households with children out of a total of 2,650. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including OBS De Koningslinde and Basisschool Het Molenven. One resident notes that 'there are also many primary schools in the area, also for children who need extra support.' The neighbourhood also has a shopping centre, parks, and is close to nature reserve De Moerputten.
What are the public transport options?
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. The city centre is also a 10-minute bike ride, as noted by a resident.
How safe is De Schutskamp?
One resident says: 'It's reasonably safe. I'm not afraid to walk outside in the evening.' The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 364, but without a per-capita figure or comparison, it's hard to judge. The resident's experience suggests a generally safe environment.
What is the garden like?
The plot size is 500 m², which is generous for a semi-detached house in this area. However, the listing does not specify whether there is a garden, terrace, or other outdoor space.
