Boxtel-Centrum, Boxtel
NeighbourhoodThis 99 m² apartment on Breukelsestraat sits right in the centre of Boxtel, where the daytime buzz gives way to quieter evenings. With an energy label C and a 1949 build, it has character and a solid footprint. At €439,000, the asking price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €416,900, but it reflects the larger-than-average floor area. For context, apartments in Boxtel typically sell for around €5,297 per m².
Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood Boxtel-Centrum gets a 7.04 out of 10. One resident says: "Living in the centre is cosy during the day. In the evening, poorly lit streets and shady characters on the street." Another notes: "It's a quiet neighbourhood with friendly people, but you do notice that some things are missing, too little greenery and limited amenities." A third review calls it "quiet and safe" with easy access to Molenwijk Park. The neighbourhood is home to a mix of ages, with many one-person households and a fair share of families.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Lidl is just around the corner. Two chip shops on the street add a local flavour. Schools are a couple of streets away: Basisschool St Petrus and Angelaschool are both within a five-minute walk, while Jacob-Roelandslyceum is a ten-minute stroll. The municipality Boxtel offers a compact, walkable centre with a train station a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Van der Ven Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

Living in the centre is cosy during the day. In the evening, poorly lit streets and shady characters on the street. Lots of litter scattered along the Dommel where young people hang out, which attracts rats. Bins are full, they could be emptied more often, especially in the summer.
Auto-translated to English by AIOverall, I enjoy living here. The atmosphere is nice and the people are friendly; you feel a certain sense of community. It feels safe enough to take a walk in the evening, and the houses are well-maintained. However, I do notice that there is too little greenery — there are hardly any trees or parks in the area, which makes it a bit drab. I also miss some amenities like nice cafés, shops, or sports facilities; for that you quickly have to go to another neighbourhood. And public transport isn't great, so without a car it can be a hassle to get anywhere. Explanation of the satisfactory aspects (safety, community, hygiene, housing, education): The neighbourhood generally feels safe, residents keep a good eye out. People know each other a bit and say hello, which makes it pleasant. The streets are kept reasonably clean and rubbish is collected properly. The houses are in good condition, and there are plenty of schools in the area that do fine — not exceptional, but just okay. Explanation of the unsatisfactory aspects (greenery, amenities, accessibility): There is really too little greenery: hardly any trees, no playgrounds or small parks where you can relax. In terms of amenities, the offering is limited, especially if you're looking for something fun to do in the neighbourhood. And accessibility could be better: the bus doesn't run often and the station is far away, which makes it difficult if you don't have a car.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood with plenty of greenery nearby, such as Molenwijk Park. Several supermarkets are easily accessible (5 minutes by bike) and there are 2 chip shops on the street. There is a mix of owner-occupied homes and social housing, which ensures a diverse group of people. It's actually always clean and I have never experienced any nuisance.

About Breukelsestraat 12A, Boxtel
The asking price of €439,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €416,900 and the median of €300,000. However, this apartment is larger than the typical 90 m² in the area, and the price per m² (€4,434) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €5,297. So while the total price is on the high side, you get more space for your money.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 1949. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as a modern A-label, but not as high as an old G-label. The neighbourhood has no other C-label homes in the current sales data, so this one stands out.
Residents give mixed reviews. Some feel safe enough to walk in the evening and say streets are reasonably clean, while others mention poorly lit streets and litter along the Dommel.
