About Burgemeester Prinsensingel 83A, Roosendaal
The asking price of €290,000 is 27% below the average asking price in Centrum-Oud (€397,188), but the apartment is also 25% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 132 m². The price per m² works out to about €2,929, which is below the neighbourhood average of €3,379 per m². So it's priced keenly for its size, though the smaller floor area explains part of the difference.

The train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting to Rotterdam, Breda or Antwerp. The bus stops in the centre are even closer.

How residents experience their municipality
Lidl en winkelgalerij Kennedylaan is 5 minuten fietsen, de kinderboerderij op loopafstand. Veel wandelpaden die langs het Molenbeekpad lopen. Er gaat een fietspad richting Nispen wat zich ook goed leent om op hard te lopen.
Auto-translated to English by AIEttingen is a pleasant and quiet residential area where you quickly feel at home. The neighbourhood is green, with plenty of parks and playgrounds for children. It feels safe, with an involved community. Accessibility is good: you can reach the centre of Roosendaal quickly by bike or car, and public transport is also well organised. There are enough schools and amenities in the area, making it attractive for families. The houses are spacious and well-maintained, and there is a nice mix of young and old in the neighbourhood. In short: a nice place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause there is no place for children to play with friends outside and you have to travel far to the city
Auto-translated to English by AIAlthough there is more and more litter, the fellow humans here are quite active in cleaning it up, so it's usually gone quickly again. And despite the me-me-me culture that is spreading like an oil slick across the whole world, I still notice that there are enough people here who have an eye and a helping hand for their (elderly) neighbours. That makes this, despite minor annoyances, a nice neighbourhood to live in.
