City, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis 121 m² apartment on Karrestraat sits in the heart of Breda, where the streets hum with cafés and boutiques. Built in 1900 but carrying an energy label A, it blends old character with modern efficiency. At €525,000, the asking price is 15% below the neighbourhood average of €614,262, making it a keen entry into the City area. For context, apartments in Breda typically command higher prices per square metre.
City is Breda's dense core, with 4,363 addresses per km², very strongly urban. Most households are single-person (1,445 out of 1,585 homes), and the average household size is just 1.3. One resident sums it up: "Plus point everything in the neighbourhood and downside no parking in front of the door." That captures the trade-off: you're steps from restaurants, shops, and the park, but parking is tight. The neighbourhood City is popular with young professionals and students, given the high share of 25-45 year olds.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a second Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Kbs De Weerijs, is a ten-minute walk, while the Stedelijk Gymnasium Breda is about the same distance. The park or garden is a five-minute walk away, and the train station is a ten-minute walk, handy for commuters. The municipality Breda keeps the city centre well-maintained, with restaurants and a library within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Steverink makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.
