Tuinzigt, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis 2020 apartment on Mgr. Horsthuisstraat feels fresh and efficient, with energy label A keeping running costs low. At €425,000, the price sits above the neighbourhood average of €392,755, but you're paying for a newer home in an area where half the housing stock dates from before 1945. For context, apartments in Breda vary widely, and this one is keenly priced given its age and efficiency.
Tuinzigt is a mixed bag, according to residents. One calls it a "working-class neighbourhood" and says "I myself quite like living here", while another describes it as "the worst place I have ever been in my life" after an incident. A third says "I wouldn't buy a house in Tuinzigt myself." Based on four reviews, opinions are split. The area is densely built (3,411 addresses per km²) and very urban, with many single-person households and a young population. The neighbourhood Tuinzigt has a lively, sometimes challenging character.
For daily shopping, Jumbo and Lidl are both just around the corner, and Ekoplaza is a couple of streets away. Primary school Kbs De Weerijs is a five-minute walk, and secondary school Curio prinsentuin van cooth is even closer. The municipality Breda offers plenty of amenities within easy reach, including a park and a restaurant nearby.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via KIN Makelaars Breda and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

I myself quite like living here
Auto-translated to English by AIThe worst place I have ever been in my life was yesterday when a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene. Eventually someone says I can't call the police and that they will fix the car for you. I wish I could leave this neighbourhood.,,,

About Mgr. Horsthuisstraat 9, Breda
The asking price of €425,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €392,755 and the median of €375,000. However, this is a recent new-build (2020) with energy label A, while half of Tuinzigt's homes date from before 1945. The price per m² (€5,120) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €4,617, reflecting the modern finish and efficiency.
The apartment has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. In Tuinzigt, about 54% of homes have label A or better, so this one is well above average in terms of energy performance.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. Breda's central station offers connections to major cities.
Residents have mixed views. One describes Tuinzigt as a "working-class neighbourhood" and says they like living there. Another had a very negative experience with crime. The area has many young adults and single-person households, giving it a dynamic but sometimes challenging atmosphere.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. As an apartment, it likely has no private outdoor space, but there is a park 0.6 km away for recreation.
With 83 m², it could have two or three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
