Buying a house in Eindhoven: the neighbourhoods that rarely reach Funda
In Eindhoven a share of the homes change hands without ever being on Funda, above all in the neighbourhoods below. If you want to live there, a personal letter reaches the owners best; each neighbourhood page names the streets people ask about and what the figures say.

Neighbourhoods in Eindhoven
- Buying a house in Strijp-S
Strijp-S is the neighbourhood that people from outside Eindhoven ask about first, and where I most often have to explain that buying works differently here. A large part of the lofts and flats is rented, and then the tenant reads your letter. The owner-occupied homes are there, but the owners are often young and sell within their own network before Funda comes into it.
Torenallee · Philitelaan · Ir. Kalffstraat · Leidingstraat · postcode 5617
- Buying a house in the Elzent
The Elzent is the neighbourhood Eindhoven people move to when they have made it, and which they then never leave. A villa comes free here when a life changes. And then the buyer is often already known before I hear of it: the children, an acquaintance of the owner, an agent who has kept a list for years. On Funda you mainly see what has been split.
Elzentlaan · Jan Smitzlaan · Dr. Schaepmanlaan · Jacob Catslaan · postcode 5611
- Buying a house in the Villapark
The Villapark is the neighbourhood where the top of Philips went to live, and where their successors still are. Very little comes up for sale. What comes free is often spoken for before the photos have been taken: to an acquaintance, to a family that was on an agent's list, or to someone who once sent a letter.
Parklaan · Nachtegaallaan · Fazantlaan · Merellaan · postcode 5613
