A compact flat in the heart of Breda
This two-room apartment on Meerten Verhoffstraat sits right in the thick of things, with the station and city centre just a couple of streets away. At 50 m² it was compact, but the A+ energy label kept running costs low. The last known asking price of €325,000 was 44% below the neighbourhood average for apartments in Breda, which made it a keen entry point into the market. This home has not been online since 16 September 2026.
Station neighbourhood
The neighbourhood Station is a dense, urban area with a very high address density. It's a young crowd: most residents are between 25 and 45, and many live alone. One resident sums it up: "Not enough bicycle parking. Often theft, 6 bikes stolen within a year. Often there is (bulky) waste around the containers. Lots of noise at night, especially during holidays and festivals. The house shakes when a train passes by. 3 floors and no lift." Despite the gripes, they gave the neighbourhood an 8 out of 10.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, a SPAR is on your doorstep, and an AH to go is just around the corner. A larger Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. For school runs, Kbs St. Joseph is a five-minute walk, and the Stedelijk Gymnasium Breda is about the same distance. The municipality Breda has plenty of parks and restaurants within walking distance too.
