The asking price of €500,000 is 17% above the average asking price in Cobbeek en Centrum, which is €428,000. However, this apartment is also 48% larger than the average home in the neighbourhood (152 m² vs 103 m²). Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €437,667, so the price is on the high side, but the extra space explains much of the difference.
The energy label is B, which is quite efficient. In the neighbourhood, 28.6% of homes have label A and another 28.6% have label B, so this apartment is in line with the better-performing homes. You can expect reasonable energy costs, though not as low as a modern A++++ property.
Cobbeek en Centrum is a mixed urban neighbourhood with about 4,040 residents. It has a fairly high density (2,389 addresses per km²). Residents appreciate the organisation and friendliness, but some mention issues with cyclists and loitering youths in the centre.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
It's wonderful living here. Everything is well organised, but the only problem is the cyclists and loitering youths in the centre.
Auto-translated to English by AIFine, really. Everyone is nice and friendly. Just sometimes a few strange things.
Auto-translated to English by AIHaving a mentally disturbed person living below me, I don't enjoy living here. I am constantly harassed over every little thing and she keeps ringing my doorbell. The housing association, police, and municipality know about her but do nothing. First there have to be victims before they intervene. I am already working on a house swap; I will jump for joy when I am out of here.

How residents experience their district
Apart from the fact that I have unpleasant neighbours on both sides and that one of them (a couple) causes a lot of nuisance, when they are quiet it is lovely to live in such a senior home. The house is very dilapidated and has quite a few defects. The housing association does nothing about it.
Auto-translated to English by AINice, after my divorce in 2015, I was well taken care of, because Zeelst has many cafés, I know some owners and they kept an eye out for living space. Eventually through them I got a converted office. They kept an eye on me, neighbours are pleasant... eventually through urgency I got a home, again in this neighbourhood... I live here very pleasantly and feel quite safe. Strips of green are well maintained and I'm close to a park

Auto-translated to English by AII appreciate how accessible everything is in my neighbourhood, but I do think it's a bit outdated; many shops are closing and no (for me) interesting shops are replacing them.

Auto-translated to English by AISafe, fairly clean, nice. In terms of education, the Sondervick is not a good school… but that is really the school's fault/problem, they have bad teachers, poor guidance,
