I think it's a very cosy neighbourhood with very nice neighbours. It's also close to the city, which is nice, and there are schools here (the secondary school is a bit 'ghetto') and lots of nice playgrounds for the children. Apart from that, it's always a bit exciting to walk through Stedenwijk in the evening. I am very satisfied with this neighbourhood and certainly won't be leaving for the time being.

However, this apartment has an A+ energy label, which is rare in Stedenwijk (only 40% of homes have A+ or better). The 83 m² floor area is slightly below the average of 95 m², but the energy efficiency and good condition likely justify the premium.
