A quiet corner of Assen
This apartment on Mr. P.J. Troelstralaan sits in De Lariks Oost, a calm part of Assen with a mix of ages. The home was part of the social housing stock, so the rent was set at €709 per month. With an energy label A, the running costs should stay modest. The asking rent was in line with what similar homes in the area go for, and the supply of rental properties here was limited. For a sense of what else is available, you can compare with other apartments in Assen. This home has not been online since 27 October 2026.
De Lariks Oost
De Lariks Oost is a neighbourhood where older residents make up a large share of the population, and many households are single people. The one review on is not glowing: the resident calls the area "boring" and says "there's nothing in this neighbourhood. Everything is gone. Have to go to other districts for activities, etc." The same reviewer, who uses an electric wheelchair, adds that this makes getting around harder. It is a quiet area, but you would need to look beyond it for shops and entertainment. This is based on a single review, so it is one person's view of the De Lariks Oost neighbourhood.
Daily life on the street
For everyday errands, the essentials are close by. A primary school is just around the corner, and a couple of streets away you will find a Jumbo, an AH XL and a Dirk for groceries. A GP practice and a secondary school are also within a short walk. The train station is about two kilometres away, which is a manageable distance for a commute. The area is well served for basic needs, though the resident review suggests you will head to other parts of Assen for a wider range of activities. This part of the city is part of the municipality of Assen, which has its own amenities and services.
