About Kerkstraat 24W, Gilze
Yes, €854 is very competitive compared to the neighbourhood median of €2,950. However, this is a social-rental property (from a housing corporation), so the price is set below market level. The apartment is 76 m², which is smaller than the average of 146 m² in the area, but the rent per m² (€11.24) is still low.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home built in 2010. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as an A-label, but far better than an old G-label. The exact bills depend on usage, but label C is generally considered reasonably efficient.
The nearest train station is 6.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike or car to reach it. The area is not well connected by rail, but bus services may be available, check local routes.
Two primary schools are within a short walk: Kindcentrum Pinokkio & De Bolster and Openbare basisschool De Wildschut, both 216 m away. For secondary education, the nearest school is 6.8 km away, so older children would need to travel further.
The neighbourhood recorded 18 total crimes in the latest data, which is low for a village of this size. The area has a calm, residential character with many older residents, so it feels safe. No specific crime breakdown is available, but the figure suggests a quiet environment.
