There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS figures show a high proportion of older homes and a compact, walkable layout. This is the Oude Binnenstad neighbourhood in a nutshell.

About Lepelstraat 12, Vlissingen
The asking price is 21% below the average asking price in the Oude Binnenstad (€388,877) and also below the median of €350,000. Given the 101 m² floor area and the historic character, it is priced keenly compared to other homes in the neighbourhood.
The energy label is F, which is on the lower end of the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs. Many homes in the neighbourhood (46.7%) have labels D or lower, so this is not unusual for a 1901 building.
The train station is 4.3 km from the apartment. That's about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride.
Two primary schools are just around the corner: Archipelschool Frans Naerebout and Ichtusschool, both at 288 m. Archipelschool De Branding is a couple of streets away at 602 m. For secondary education, the nearest school is 3.5 km away.
Albert Heijn and Aldi are both within a five-minute walk (369 m and 395 m). For a larger supermarket, Jumbo and Lidl are about 1.4 km away. Restaurants are very close at 0.2 km, and a library is 0.8 km away.
There are currently 53 homes for sale in the Oude Binnenstad, with prices ranging from €149,500 to €1,095,000. The average price per m² is €3,469, so this apartment at €3,059 per m² is below the neighbourhood average.
The neighbourhood has many single-person households and few families with children, so it may be more suited to couples or individuals.
The CBS data records 375 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure or context, it's hard to judge. The area is urban and lively, which can come with some street-level incidents.
