Cobbeek en Centrum, Veldhoven
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Braak sits right in the middle of Veldhoven, where the streets are lively and everything you need is close by. With 87 m² of living space, it's a comfortable size for a couple or a small family. The energy label C means the home is reasonably efficient, though not the most modern. At €375,000, the asking price is a bit below the average for apartments in Veldhoven, which makes it a keen option in the current market.
The neighbourhood Cobbeek en Centrum is a dense, urban area with a mix of ages and household types. About half the homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are busy with a high address density. Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "It's wonderful living here. Everything is well organised, but the only problem is the cyclists and loitering youths in the centre." Another calls it a "decent neighbourhood" where "everyone is nice and friendly. Just sometimes a few strange things." A third review is more negative, describing issues with a neighbour. So it's a place with upsides and downsides, like many central areas.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Protestantse Basisschool De Rank and Rooms-Katholieke Basisschool De Meerhoef. The municipality Veldhoven has all the basics covered, with a GP practice and a park both a short stroll from home.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Henri Kox Makelaardij.

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.
