Tuindorp, Eindhoven
NeighbourhoodThis end-of-terrace house on Schalmstraat sits in Tuindorp, a quiet, white-rendered neighbourhood that one long-term resident describes as 'sublime', like Italy or Greece in summer. With 141 m² of living space, it's 40% larger than the average home in the area, and the €685,000 asking price is 41% above the neighbourhood average of €484,550. That's a premium for the extra space and the A energy label, but it's in line with what larger homes in this sought-after pocket command. For context, terraced houses in Eindhoven vary widely, but this one stands out for its size and efficiency.
Tuindorp is a tight-knit community of around 2,875 residents, with a mix of ages and a strong sense of safety, the resident who has lived here since 1994 says: 'It's fairly safe to live here; there's neighbourhood watch and residents keep a close eye on everything.' The same resident adds: 'All shops and healthcare facilities are within walking distance, as is the centre of Eindhoven.' The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses (3,682 per km²), so it's urban, but the white houses and green squares give it a calm, almost Mediterranean atmosphere. Most homes are pre-1970, but this one was built in 2009, so it's newer than the typical stock. Learn more about the neighbourhood Tuindorp.

I've lived here since 1994 and don't want to leave for as long as my life allows. The living comfort is sublime, and in summer you feel like you're in Italy or Greece because of the white houses. It's fairly safe to live here; there's neighbourhood watch and residents keep a close eye on everything. It's a great privilege to live here. All shops and healthcare facilities are within walking distance, as is the centre of Eindhoven. I want to keep living here!!!
