Schorsmolen, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Middellaan sits right in the thick of things in Breda. At 57 m² it's compact but well laid out, with an energy label B that keeps running costs manageable. The asking price of €275,000 is noticeably keen, 22% below the neighbourhood average of €354,000, which makes it one of the more affordable apartments in Breda.
Schorsmolen is the neighbourhood that wraps around the station and the city centre, so it's dense and busy. Three residents have shared their experiences. One says: "My neighbourhood is safe and close to all shops, sometimes I get bothered by bicycles during a festival or special events, but overall it's fine to live here." Another, who has lived here six years, calls it a "quiet neighbourhood" and says they've never had unpleasant experiences. A third review is less positive, mentioning "lots of drug addicts and homeless people hanging around here" and a front door that "looks like a rubbish dump." The neighbourhood has a very high address density (over 4,000 addresses per km²) and is mostly made up of single-person households. For more context, see the Schorsmolen neighbourhood.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with another Albert Heijn and an Aldi a couple of streets away. A primary school, Kbs De Weerijs, is a ten-minute walk, and there's a special school, De Singel SO, practically on your doorstep. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the city-centre restaurants are just a couple of streets away. All this falls within the municipality of Breda, which keeps the city's amenities close.
The apartment is listed through several channels, including vb&t Makelaars. At the time of writing, the asking price is €275,000.

Lots of drug addicts and homeless people hanging around here. The front door looks like a rubbish dump, nobody cleans it up, the council does nothing about it.
