Buying a home in Cunera, Rhenen.
Cunera is where Rhenen's older core lives, stacked on the riverbank with cobbled streets and actual character—you'll find solid 1920s houses alongside converted farmsteads rather than new-build estates. The neighborhood looks out onto the Neder-Rijn, and locals walk to the farmers' market and church square without thinking twice. It's quiet enough to breathe, busy enough that your bakery and butcher stay open.

What to consider when buying in Cunera
Pros:
- Train station Rhenen is a 10-minute walk away with direct connections to Utrecht and Amsterdam Central
- Flat terrain and quiet residential streets make it easy to cycle around; ideal if you have kids and want them to move independently

- Houses here are typically modest, older builds (1950s–1970s) with lower entry prices than Utrecht or Bunnik
