Barrier, Eindhoven
This studio on Pastoor van Arslaan 5A is a small but complete home in a lively part of Eindhoven. At 41 m² it's compact, and with an energy label E you'll want to keep an eye on heating costs. The asking price of €225,000 is 48% below the neighbourhood average of €435,000, which makes sense given the size and label, it's priced keenly for what it is. For context, studios in Eindhoven vary widely, so this one stands out for its affordability.
Barrier is a very strongly urban area (over 3,000 addresses per km²) with a mix of ages and households. Around half the homes are owner-occupied, and 82% are single-family houses, so a studio is a bit of an outlier here. The neighbourhood has a youngish feel, with many residents aged 25-45. There are no resident reviews available for this area, so the picture comes from the data: a busy, central part of Eindhoven where things happen. Learn more about neighbourhood Barrier.

About Pastoor van Arslaan 5A, Eindhoven
The asking price is 48% below the average asking price in Barrier (€435,000), but the studio is also much smaller than the neighbourhood average of 210 m². Given the compact size and energy label E, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small, older home in this area.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. In Barrier, most homes for sale have label B or better, so this one will likely have higher heating costs. You may want to consider potential improvements, but the listing does not specify any recent upgrades.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though not directly on your doorstep.

How residents experience their district
Quiet, no nuisance, sometimes difficult neighbours, otherwise everyone is very much to themselves but still always curious about what others are doing. In terms of nature, it is very extensive and there are many opportunities.
Auto-translated to English by AIGood and cosy. Beautiful where I live, everyone says hello. Close to all amenities. Cosy neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't had any bad experiences. During the day it's cosy with lots of people everywhere and there's plenty to do. But in the evening there are occasionally activities that aren't safe, but that rarely happens fortunately. Furthermore, friendly people, lots of greenery and lovely walking parks with supermarkets within walking distance. By bike, car or on foot you can basically reach everything you need.
Auto-translated to English by AIMany people greet you. Clean, and lots of shops in the neighbourhood.. Close to the centre..and bus stop
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood to live in, all amenities nearby. Especially now with the new Spar. Unfortunately, there is a lot of rubbish in the area, which is a real shame.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood has improved significantly since the redevelopment. All the new homes built by Trudo look sleek and are of good quality, but as a result the whole area has acquired a bit of a 'Vinex look' and still lacks some character and atmosphere. Furthermore, it could do with more greenery, and there is often a pile of rubbish around the underground waste bins. There is also still no supermarket in the neighbourhood. The Spar on Celsiusplein is far too expensive, and the nearest next supermarket is beyond the ring road.

Door de vele hoge struiken en bomen langs de straten waar veel doorgaand verkeer doorheen gaat, en slechte avondverlichting geeft een onveilig gevoel.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a beautiful, quiet, clean and spacious neighbourhood. I experience the area as safe and child-friendly. In terms of noise, it's pleasantly quiet: you hardly hear any planes, at most occasionally a military helicopter during the day. There are good schools and the neighbourhood is very international, with a nice mix of locals and knowledge migrants. This is also due to its favourable location relative to the High Tech Campus, the ASML campus and ISE. Accessibility is good, with several bus lines (401, 402, 403 and 20) and fast arterial roads towards the centre and Best. In the centre of Meerhoven there are three supermarkets (Lidl, Albert Heijn and Jumbo), a GP, dentists and childcare. By bike you can reach Strijp-S in about 10 minutes and the centre of Eindhoven in 15 to 20 minutes. In addition, there is a lot of greenery, with beautiful walking routes along the golf course and through Park Meerland. A downside is that it's not very lively: there are few activities and hardly any catering facilities. All in all, I think it's one of the better neighbourhoods in Eindhoven. The centre is easily accessible by bike and it's a good choice if you want to live quietly, without being too far from the city. If you're looking for a cosy, lively neighbourhood with lots of nightlife, Meerhoven is probably less suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIA quiet neighbourhood, with nice people. Small playground, large grass field, lots of trees and bushes, many shops and schools nearby. Live close to a beautiful park with a big playground. Near GP and hospital. Neighbourhood is safe and clean. We really enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AII'm constantly asking for advice. Improving the pavements and removing weeds!!! Rembrantplein and 2 other streets really need to be cleaned.! Remco van Wij Eidhoven and I have also spoken to Trudo, but they won't do anything about it.! It's not their responsibility.!! Will you please do something about this? Vaartbroek also got new paving stones. Thank you for listening.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery safe and protected for my children, nice neighbours
Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, the neighbourhood is deteriorating. A lot of rubbish is dumped and the police often have to come. Education: there are schools nearby and it's green enough. Shops are conveniently close and the houses have just been completely renovated.
