A flat in the heart of Vlissingen
This apartment sits in the Oude Binnenstad, the old centre of Vlissingen, where the streets hum with daily life and the Scheldt is never far away. Built in 1991, it is a portiekflat on the third floor, a type of walk-up apartment common in Dutch cities. With an asking price of €225,000, the price is keen compared with the neighbourhood average, coming in 41% below the average asking price of €380,542. For context, that average is based on all apartments in Vlissingen, so this flat sits at the more accessible end of the market.
Inside the apartment
The flat offers 80 m² of living space, spread over one floor, with four rooms in total: three bedrooms and one bathroom. The agent lists double glazing and a central heating boiler, and the home is in full ownership, so there is no leasehold to consider. The monthly homeowners' association fee is €230. The energy label is B, which is an efficient label, meaning you can expect moderate energy costs. The living area matches the BAG registration, so there is no discrepancy between the official record and the agent's listing.
Life in the Oude Binnenstad
This is a neighbourhood with a strong sense of community, according to residents across the municipality of Vlissingen, who give it an average score of 8.12 out of 10 based on 16 reviews. One resident says: "Had a great time, met so many people and had many experiences. So many stories to tell and a wonderful neighbourhood to live in if you want a quiet life." Another notes: "I've lived here my whole life, it's a good neighbourhood for children, just not safe to be outside alone after dark." The population skews older, with 39% aged 65 or over, and 62% of households are single-person. The reviews reflect a place that suits different lifestyles, though the night-time safety comment is worth weighing. For more on the area, see the Oude Binnenstad neighbourhood.
