Centrum, Bergen op Zoom
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Franciscusberg sits in the heart of Bergen op Zoom, where the streets buzz with cafés and shops. At 53 m² it's compact but well laid out, with an energy label D, something to factor in for running costs. The asking price of €249,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because the home is smaller than typical for the area. For context, apartments in Bergen op Zoom vary widely in size and price.
The neighbourhood Centrum is a dense, lively area with over 4,000 residents, mostly single-person households. It's a very urban setting, think busy streets and everything within walking distance. Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed: one resident calls it a "Nice and cosy neighbourhood" with friendly people, while another notes "Very many so-called confused people in the neighbourhood under the influence of something." A third says "There is something to do here and there" with plenty of city activities. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of older homes, and the average income is around the national median.
Daily errands are easy: Jumbo is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Albert Heijn are a couple of streets away. For families, RK Basisschool Sancta Maria is on your doorstep, and Basisschool De Krabbenkooi is a short walk. The municipality Bergen op Zoom offers a compact city centre with restaurants, a library and a park all within a ten-minute walk. The train station is a ten-minute walk, handy for trips to Roosendaal or Antwerp.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Baas Makelaars and appears on several channels including Pararius and Funda.

Very many so-called confused people in the neighbourhood under the influence of something. I think they should look at how to keep these kinds of people out of the neighbourhood as much as possible.

About Franciscusberg 7, Bergen Op Zoom
The asking price is 35% below the neighbourhood average of €381,381, but the apartment is also 57% smaller than the typical home in Centrum (123 m²). At €4,698 per m², it's above the average m² price of €3,586 in the area. So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium per square metre for a compact home in a central location.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, about 25% of homes have label D or lower, while 39% have A or better. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating and electricity costs will be higher than in a modern home. It's worth checking the exact energy performance certificate for details.
Centrum is very urban with a high density of addresses. You have supermarkets, schools, restaurants and a library all within walking distance. The area has a mix of residents, including many singles and students. Some residents appreciate the cosy atmosphere and friendly people, while others mention nuisance from people under the influence. Overall it's a lively, central spot.
The train station is 1.6 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short bus ride. Bus stops are within a few hundred metres, connecting to the rest of Bergen op Zoom and surrounding towns.
The floor area is 53 m², which typically accommodates a living room, one bedroom and a kitchen, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's unclear if there is any private outdoor space.
