De Velden Zuid, Almere
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Toernooiveld sits in De Velden Zuid, a neighbourhood that one long-term resident calls 'an undervalued gem in the Randstad'. With 189 m² of living space and a 288 m² plot, it offers room to spread out. The asking price of €750,000 is in line with what you'd expect for a home of this size in this part of Almere. For context, semi-detached houses in Almere vary widely, but this one stands out for its generous proportions.
The neighbourhood is overwhelmingly made up of owner-occupied homes (98%) and single-family houses (78%), giving it a settled, family-oriented feel. One resident, who has lived here since 2006, says: 'De Velden turns out to be hugely popular as a neighbourhood, and even seems to be among the most beloved residential areas in Flevoland. That is not without reason, and I can, after almost twenty years here, only confirm that.' The neighbourhood De Velden Zuid is quiet and green, with a park just a few steps away.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there are several other supermarkets within a short drive. Primary school IKC de Aquamarijn is a couple of streets away, and secondary school OSG De Meergronden is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Almere has plenty of facilities, but you'll need a car or bike for the train station, which is about five kilometres away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including GOOILAND MAKELAARDIJ.

Since May 2006 I have lived in De Velden. Although I was initially extremely anti-Almere (I just chimed in with other ignorant people), I have come to appreciate Almere, and my neighbourhood in particular, more and more. Close to cities like Amsterdam and Amersfoort, with many facilities in various areas (health practices, schools, sports facilities) and especially lots of nature and water, I see Almere as an undervalued gem in the Randstad. De Velden turns out to be hugely popular as a neighbourhood, and even seems to be among the most beloved residential areas in Flevoland. That is not without reason, and I can - after almost twenty years here - only confirm that.

About Toernooiveld 105, Almere
The asking price of €750,000 is in line with the market for a semi-detached house of 189 m² in De Velden Zuid. The neighbourhood is highly sought-after, with almost all homes owner-occupied and a very low crime rate. Without comparable sales data for the immediate area, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but the price reflects the generous living space and plot.
The home has energy label B, which is efficient. You can expect relatively low energy costs compared to older homes, though exact bills depend on usage. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, but this home is above average in efficiency.
The nearest train station is 4.9 km away, so you'll need a bike or car to get there. Almere has good rail connections to Amsterdam and elsewhere, but the station isn't within walking distance.
The closest primary school is IKC de Aquamarijn, about 750 metres away. Several other primaries are within 1.5,2 km. For secondary education, OSG De Meergronden is about 1.7 km away, a manageable walk or bike ride.
De Velden Zuid has a very low crime rate, with only 18 total offences recorded. Residents describe it as quiet and safe, with a strong sense of community. The one review available gives it a 9.38 out of 10.
The plot is 288 m², which includes garden space. The exact layout of the garden is not described in the listing, but the size suggests a good-sized outdoor area for a family.
