I live here so I think it's a nice place. There are many children and you can easily entertain your child at the playground of the Zonnebloemschool or in the woods; the Bosjes van Pex. There you have the riding school De Wildhoef, HBS, Quick and many more clubs and sports associations. It's a nice neighbourhood, there are many animals, lots of greenery and it's a sporty neighbourhood. You know almost everyone here and it's a nice community. Both child and parent enjoy themselves in de bloemenbuurt!
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood with a lovely forest and shopping centre nearby; if I want to quickly get something to eat, I can easily arrange that within 10 minutes. Also, despite living next to the trams, you hardly notice them. It's a clean neighbourhood.

The energy label is E, which is less efficient than most homes for sale in the neighbourhood, all other listed properties have label B. An E label means you can expect higher heating costs compared to a more modern home. The home was built in 1926, so it may need some energy improvements.
The nearest train station is 5.7 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus or car to reach it. The neighbourhood does have tram lines nearby, as one resident noted that you hardly notice the trams despite living next to them.
