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.

About Braak 86, Veldhoven
The asking price of €350,000 is 18% below the average asking price in Cobbeek en Centrum (€428,000). However, the apartment is also 25% smaller than the neighbourhood average (77 m² vs 103 m²). So the price per square metre is roughly in line with the market, making it a fair deal for a compact home in a central location.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 1978. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label C, while 28.6% have label A and 28.6% have label B. A C label means moderate energy efficiency, so heating costs will be reasonable but not as low as a modern home.
The nearest train station is 6.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus or car to reach it. The neighbourhood is well served by local amenities, but for longer rail journeys you'll need to plan ahead.
Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed. 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 says: "Fine, really. Everyone is nice and friendly. Just sometimes a few strange things." A third review is very negative, citing a difficult neighbour situation. So it's a typical urban mix.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. The floor plan is not provided in the data.
Jumbo is just 169 metres away, so it's on your doorstep. Albert Heijn is 395 metres away, a five-minute walk. Lidl and SPAR are also within a ten-minute walk. So daily groceries are very convenient.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's likely this apartment does not have private outdoor space.
