Stokhorst, a neighbourhood located in the Netherlands' city of Enschede to the north-east is called Stokhorst. It used to be a textile factory's country estate. This area is known as a green space and for the majority of homes that are owner-occupied. The neighbourhood is divided into different sections, such as the older Stokhorst Noord which consists mainly of large villas and the more modern Park Stokhorst built by Bouwfonds Nederlandse Gemeenten in the 1970s. This area is diverse in terms of the size and cost of houses.
Stokhorst also has a number of sports facilities. Sportpark Schreurserve is home to football clubs sv Vosta, cvv Sparta and Tex Town Tigers. The wijkcentrum 't Volbert hosts various sporting clubs, including bridge club 'De Boerderie', schaakvereniging 'Park Stokhorst' and tafeltennisvereniging 't Volbert'. The sheds from the former farm are also used by the scouting group t Volbert. Tennisvereniging TVVS is located near the wijkcentrum. It was originally the tennis club of Vredesteinfabriek.
