Oudheusden: a village with mixed reviews
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.
Daily life on Van Deelenstraat
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.

Frequently asked questions
About Van Deelenstraat 109, Oudheusden
Is €525,000 a fair price for this semi-detached house?
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.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
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.
How is the neighbourhood for families with children?
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.
What are the public transport options?
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.
How safe is Oudheusden?
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.
What is the garden like?
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.
How long do homes typically stay on the market in Oudheusden?
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.
What schools are near Van Deelenstraat?
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.
