Zuid, Den Bosch
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Philippus de Montestraat sits in a leafy part of Zuid, a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the city bustle. With 85 m² of living space, it is larger than many apartments in the area, though the energy label F means heating costs will be something to factor in. At €375,000, the asking price is 44% below the neighbourhood average of €671,609, making it a keen entry point into Den Bosch's housing market. For context, apartments in Den Bosch vary widely in price and size.
Zuid is a calm, residential area with a strong sense of community. Two residents describe it as "beautiful" and "nice, cosy, beautiful", while another says it is a "nice neighbourhood to grow up in" with "many nice people, cats and peace". The only downside mentioned is the nearby motorway, which creates a constant background hum, but one resident notes it is "actually a nice background noise so it's not so bad". The neighbourhood has a high proportion of older residents (37% are 65+), and most homes are apartments (63%). Average incomes are in line with the city average.

For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including KC Het IJzeren Kind and OBS De Koningslinde, both about a five-minute walk. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, perfect for a quick stroll. The municipality Den Bosch offers a range of amenities, with restaurants and a GP practice also close by.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including vb&t Makelaars. The asking price of €375,000 is well below the neighbourhood average, reflecting the smaller floor area and the energy label.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt has always been very pleasant here with many nice people, cats and peace. And everything is nearby. A downside is that the motorway is close by so you always hear cars in the distance, but that is actually a nice background noise so it's not so bad.

About Philippus de Montestraat 76, 'S-Hertogenbosch
The asking price of €375,000 is 44% below the average asking price in Zuid (€671,609) and also below the median of €475,000. However, the apartment is smaller than average (85 m² vs 127 m²) and has an energy label F, which means higher energy costs. Given these factors, the price is on the keen side for the neighbourhood.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have higher heating and electricity costs compared to a more modern or better-insulated property. In Zuid, only about 13% of homes have label A or better, while 35% have label D or lower, so an F label is not uncommon in this area.
Zuid is a quiet, green neighbourhood with a mix of ages. A Jumbo supermarket is just around the corner, and there are several primary schools within a five-minute walk. A park is on your doorstep, and restaurants and a GP are also close by. The train station is 2.6 km away, so you would need a bike or bus for a direct connection.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km from the home, which is about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses (1975 per km²), indicating good urban amenities.
Currently, 23 homes are for sale in Zuid. Over the past period, 104 homes were sold, with an average selling time of 43 days. The average sold price was €493,423, which is close to the median asking price. This suggests a balanced market without extreme pressure.
