Schorsmolen, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis two-room apartment on Nijverheidssingel sits right in the thick of things. At 47 m² it's compact, but the price of €275,000 is 22% below the neighbourhood average of €354,000, a keen entry point for a buyer who wants to live centrally. For context, the average apartments in Breda tends to be larger, so this one is priced accordingly.
The neighbourhood Schorsmolen is densely urban, over 4,000 addresses per km², and home to mostly single-person households. Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident calls it a "junkenhol" and says: "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." Another counters: "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." A third, who has lived here six years, says: "I have never had any unpleasant experiences."
For groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and an Aldi is a couple of streets away. There's a special school (De Singel SO) on your doorstep, and primary school Kbs De Weerijs is a five-minute walk. The municipality Breda has plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance, and the train station is a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing the home is listed via KIN Makelaars Breda and also appears on Funda.

About Nijverheidssingel 193, Breda
The asking price is 22% below the average asking price in Schorsmolen (€354,000), but the flat is also 35% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 72 m². On a per-square-metre basis, the price is in line with the market. Given the compact size, it's a reasonable entry-level price for the location.
The energy label is C. That's a decent score for a flat from 1982, it means the home is reasonably efficient, though not as good as modern A-rated homes. You can expect moderate energy costs, but nothing extreme.
Residents have mixed views. One review mentions drug addicts and a messy front door, while two others say it's safe and they've had no unpleasant experiences. The neighbourhood has a total of 412 reported crimes, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. It's worth visiting at different times to get your own feel.
You have an Albert Heijn 345 metres away and an Aldi 392 metres away, both within a five-minute walk. There's also a restaurant just 200 metres away, and a park 700 metres away. The train station is 1.4 km, about a 15-minute walk.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms, but with 47 m² it is likely a one-bedroom or compact two-room apartment. You would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The price is below the neighbourhood average, and the location is central with good amenities. However, the flat is small and the neighbourhood has some reported issues. It could be a good starter home if you're comfortable with the urban environment.
