At 81 m² and €229,000, the price is 41% below the neighbourhood average of €388,877, partly because the floor area is 34% smaller than the typical 123 m².

The Oude Binnenstad neighbourhood is a dense, historic area with 3,860 residents, many of whom live alone (1,550 single-person households). It's a place where 47% of homes were built before 1945, and the streets are lively: the address density is 2,222 per km², making it strongly urban. No resident reviews are available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from CBS data: a mix of ages, with a notable share of residents aged 65 and over (1,485).
Daily life here is compact and convenient. For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within a ten-minute walk: Archipelschool Frans Naerebout and Ichtusschool, both. The nearest train station is 4.3 km away, so you'll rely on a bike or car for longer journeys. The municipality of Vlissingen offers a range of amenities, with a restaurant just 0.2 km from your front door.

About Paardenstraat 10, Vlissingen
Yes, it's keenly priced. The asking price is 41% below the neighbourhood average of €388,877, though the apartment is 34% smaller than the typical home in the area. Given the historic character and A energy label, it represents good value for a compact city-centre home.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This is remarkable for a home built in 1717, meaning it has been well modernised. You can expect low heating costs compared to older properties in the area, where 47% have labels D or lower.
The building dates from 1717, making it over 300 years old. However, the A energy label suggests significant modernisation has taken place. The exact condition of the interior is not detailed in the listing, but the combination of age and efficiency is unusual.
The Oude Binnenstad is a dense, historic area with many singles and older residents. It's very urban, with shops and restaurants within walking distance. Albert Heijn and Aldi are both under a kilometre away, and there are several primary schools nearby.
The nearest train station is 4.3 km from the apartment. That's about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. The listing does not specify bus connections, but the station provides links to the wider region.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not provided, so it's best to assume there is no private outdoor space, which is common for apartments in a historic city centre.
With 81 m², it could have two or three rooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
