Overakkerstraat 107B1, Breda
Very good · 2 residents
I've been living in the neighbourhood for about twelve years now and have experienced many changes. In the early years when I came to live here, it was mainly older people living here. This has since changed, and more and more young people are coming. The neighbourhood is very suitable for pets because of two large parks and enough grass squares. The area has a large but safe street that has good connections to motorways. There is also a street that connects village life (Bavel) with city life (Centre).

About Overakkerstraat 107B1, Breda
The asking price is 16% below the average asking price in Overakker (€579,462), and also slightly below the median of €495,000. Given that the apartment is 86 m², smaller than the neighbourhood average of 122 m², the price per m² works out at about €5,640, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,800. So it's priced keenly for its size, but you're paying for the modern build and energy efficiency.
The apartment has energy label A, which is very efficient. This means you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. In Overakker, only about 23% of homes have label A or better, so this is a strong point.
Very convenient. The nearest supermarket (Lidl) is just 468 metres away, and Albert Heijn is 487 metres, both a five-minute walk. There are also several primary schools within a ten-minute walk, and a secondary school at 595 metres. A park is just 300 metres away, so green space is on your doorstep.
The nearest train station is 4.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area has a high density of addresses (2,257 per km²), which typically means good bus connections nearby.
The neighbourhood recorded 100 total crimes in the latest data, which for a population of 3,285 works out at about 30 per 1,000 residents. That's moderate, and residents describe it as quiet and friendly.
The apartment has 86 m², which is suitable for a small family or a couple. The neighbourhood has many families with children (435 households) and good schools nearby. However, there is no garden mentioned in the listing, so outdoor space would be limited to the nearby parks.
