Buying a home in Leersum - Ginkel, Leersum.
Ginkel sits on the quieter side of Leersum, where you'll find mostly older family homes and solid townhouses rather than new builds. The neighbourhood slopes gently toward the Ginkelse Heide, a sprawling heath where locals walk their dogs and cycle without thinking twice. Your nearest shops and cafés are a short walk downhill, and the train station connects you directly to Utrecht in twenty minutes. It's the kind of place where you know your neighbours but aren't crowded in.
