Buying a home in Lintbebouwing-Noord, Arkel.
You'll find yourself in a quiet stretch of detached and semi-detached homes on the outskirts of Arkel, with fields and small-scale farming still part of the landscape. The Linge river runs nearby, which means good cycling routes and actual countryside within a five-minute ride. Most houses here date from the 1970s and 80s, practical and spacious rather than fancy, with room to garden or park a caravan if you want to. It's the kind of place where you know your immediate neighbours and the supermarket is a short drive, not a sprint.
