Oudheusden, Heusden
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Van Deelenstraat sits in the heart of Oudheusden, a village where life moves at a gentler pace. With 138 m² of living space and a 252 m² plot, it offers room to spread out. The asking price of €525,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but semi-detached houses in Heusden are in limited supply.
Oudheusden is a small village with mostly families and a high proportion of owner-occupied homes. Based on three resident reviews, opinions are divided. One resident says: "It's nice to grow up in Oudheusden. There are many playgrounds, several primary schools, and the library is accessible." Another is less positive: "Bad, loitering youths harassing neighbours. I can't really say it's safe, they tear through the streets with cars or fatbikes." A third review notes: "The neighbourhood has many children and motorists do not seem to take this into account." The village has a stable core of residents, but some feel that recent newcomers have little connection with their neighbours.
For your morning bread run, the Coop is just around the corner. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including BS De Dromenvanger a couple of streets away. Secondary education is further afield, so older children will need a bike or bus. The village has a library and a GP practice nearby, and the park is a ten-minute walk away. Public transport is limited, the nearest train station is 14.9 km away, so a car is almost essential for getting around.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Staete - Vlijmen.

Bad, loitering youths harassing neighbours. I can't really say it's safe, they tear through the streets with cars or fatbikes. Preferably with phone in hand. Police hardly ever check anything.
Auto-translated to English by AIAs far as the Hamelpark and the adjoining streets are concerned, investment should be made in traffic safety. Although all of Oudheusden is designated as a "woonerf", for some it seems more like a racetrack. How fast can I drive past the speed-reducing measures such as speed bumps and road narrowings? The delivery services are also to blame for this. The neighbourhood has many children and motorists do not seem to take this into account, and it will go wrong one day. For a long time, the neighbourhood had a stable core of residents. Recently, labour migrants and emigrants dominate the housing market, and that is not a good prospect. They have no connection with their neighbours. As a result, the gap between current residents and newcomers will widen until everyone has left the neighbourhood. A missed opportunity for the municipality of Heusden to put a stop to this early on. This battle is lost. Not recommended for anyone looking for peace and cosiness.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's nice to grow up in Oudheusden. There are many playgrounds, several primary schools, and the library is accessible. The main downside is the accessibility of Oudheusden by public transport. The bus goes to Den Bosch once every 30 minutes, but places like Waalwijk and Drunen are only reachable by the Buurtbus, which doesn't always run on time. If you want to travel outside the immediate area, you quickly become dependent on a car. Additionally, I think there has been a lot of litter on the streets in recent months. That's always a shame.

About Van Deelenstraat 109, Oudheusden
The asking price of €525,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €496,000 and the median of €430,000. However, semi-detached houses in Heusden are relatively scarce, and this home has a generous plot of 252 m². The price per square metre (€3,805) is in line with the neighbourhood average of €3,881. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the quiet village setting.
The home has energy label C. This is a fairly average rating for a house built in 1986. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it is not as efficient as a modern A-rated home. The majority of homes in Oudheusden (66.7%) also have label C, so this is typical for the area.
Oudheusden has many families, about 445 households with children out of 1,134 homes. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the village has playgrounds and a library. However, some residents complain about traffic safety and speeding cars, despite the 'woonerf' designation. One resident noted that motorists do not always take children into account.
Public transport is limited. The nearest train station is 14.9 km away, so commuting by train is not practical. A bus to Den Bosch runs every 30 minutes, but other destinations like Waalwijk and Drunen are served by a Buurtbus that does not always run on time. Most residents rely on a car for daily travel.
Resident reviews are mixed. One resident mentions loitering youths and cars speeding through the streets, while another feels the neighbourhood is safe enough for children to play. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 83, but without a per-capita comparison it is hard to judge. It is a small village, so most issues are likely minor.
The plot measures 252 m², which is generous for a semi-detached house. The listing does not specify whether there is a garden, terrace, or other outdoor space, but the size suggests there is room for a private outdoor area. You would need to view the property to see how the plot is laid out.
In the past period, sold homes in Oudheusden took an average of 32 days to sell. This is a reasonable timeframe, indicating a balanced market. The current supply is limited, with only 9 homes for sale, so well-priced properties do not linger.
The nearest primary school is BS De Dromenvanger, about 488 metres away, a five-minute walk. Other primary schools within a few kilometres include Rooms Katholieke Basisschool Th J Rijken and OBS De Groene Bogen. For secondary education, the closest is d'Oultremont College, about 3.7 km away, so older children will need transport.
