Princenhage, Breda
This end-of-terrace house on Kaardenstekerstraat in Princenhage, Breda, feels like a proper family home from the moment you step in. With 117 m² of living space and a plot of 171 m², there is room to spread out and make it your own. The rent of €1,700 a month sits 17% below the neighbourhood average of €2,040, so it is keenly priced for what you get. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Breda typically command a premium, making this one stand out.
Princenhage is a neighbourhood with a strong sense of community, and the single review we have backs that up. One resident says: "Beautiful, we help each other with a joint barbecue and a neighbourhood chat. It's great here. A chat is part of it every now and then." That sums up the spirit nicely. The area is home to a mix of ages, with a good number of families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied. It feels settled and welcoming, the kind of place where neighbours know each other. The Princenhage neighbourhood has a lot going for it.
Mornings start easily here. The nearest primary school, Kbs De Eerste Rith, is just around the corner, and Kbs Sinte Maerte is a couple of streets away, so the school run is a doddle. For groceries, both Jumbo and Albert Heijn are within a five-minute walk, which makes popping out for bread or a pint of milk very convenient. When you want a change of scenery, the park is just around the corner, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby for a relaxed evening out. The municipality of Breda offers all the amenities you could need.

About Kaardenstekerstraat 1, Breda
The rent of €1,700 is 17% below the neighbourhood average of €2,040, which makes it keenly priced. The average price per square metre in the area is €14, so for 117 m² you might expect around €1,638, but the actual rent is slightly higher. Given the size and the end-of-terrace layout, it is in line with what you would expect for a family home in Princenhage.
The energy label is B. This is an official registration from EP-Online, indicating the home's energy performance. A B label is quite efficient, so you can expect reasonable energy costs compared to less efficient homes. However, the label does not tell you about the condition of the insulation or heating system, so it is just one factor to consider.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away. That is a bit of a distance, so you would likely drive or cycle there. The station connects you to the wider region, but for daily commuting you might prefer to check the bus options or plan your route accordingly.
Based on one review, the neighbours are friendly and community-minded. The resident mentions joint barbecues and neighbourhood chats, describing it as a great place to live. The area has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied, which often adds to a stable, neighbourly feel.
Yes, there are several schools within easy reach. The nearest primary school, Kbs De Eerste Rith, is just 252 metres away, and Kbs Sinte Maerte is 421 metres. For secondary education, Curio prinsentuin van cooth is about 1.5 km away. So whether you have young children or teenagers, there are options close by.
You have two supermarkets within a short walk: Jumbo at 640 metres and Albert Heijn at 659 metres. That makes daily shopping very convenient. If you need more variety, there are additional options like Lidl and another Jumbo about 1.6 km away, so you are well covered for groceries.

How residents experience their district
Safety is good. Hygiene is good, slightly less in some places because there is a McDonald's where some people don't clean up their rubbish. I don't have any trouble with this, and occasionally someone from McDonald's comes to clean it up. So I gave it a passing grade. Housing is also good. Everything is spacious. Accessibility for cars and cyclists is good. There is also a station reasonably close by. There is no school in the neighbourhood, so no education. You have to cycle a bit for that. About the community: it's fine. There is a neighbourhood party every year, but nothing more. I don't feel the need for that either. The neighbourhood is also reasonably green because the houses are spaced out. Many people have greenery in their own gardens. Just as there is no school, there are also no facilities. You have to cycle a bit for that again. Conclusion: I live well here. The neighbourhood is especially suitable for people who want to live spaciously and quietly. For elderly people who have difficulty walking, this neighbourhood is not suitable.

Auto-translated to English by AINice cosy neighbourhood but has a problem with mice
Auto-translated to English by AIThe worst place I have ever been in my life was yesterday when a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene. Eventually someone says I can't call the police and that they will fix the car for you. I wish I could leave this neighbourhood.,,,

Very dangerous my neighbourhood. I work as a volunteer for the last 32 years, but the situation is very very dangerous. Police don't listen. There is no gathering of the neighbourhood in the last two years. I always clean my street. Geeren Zuid Park. I have worked with Werk aan de wijk. I made art workshops. Municipality Breda didn't give 400 euros for material costs, only gave 200, so I asked my family for 1000 US dollars so I could buy materials. I'm sorry, but senior people get no respect here in Breda. (I was racially abused by a security guard in ALDI supermarket as I was giving my trolley to an old lady.) It hurts a lot as I worked for United Nations Goodwill Ambassadors for the last 50 long years, UNICEF, UNESCO, SAVE THE CHILDREN, NCIV Mr Pronk, Voices Of The Earth, for enlightenment in the visions of tomorrow. Pass the torch on to others. Hold on to the memories of yesterday. Even a small memory goes a long, long way and fulfils its purpose in eternity. Quote by M. Bugi.

Auto-translated to English by AIGreat!! Everyone knows each other. (except the Dutch residents who have recently moved in) If these people also make an effort to get to know the Moluccan residents, it will only get better. After the renovation, quite a few owner-occupied houses with Dutch residents have been added. If both parties make some effort to adapt, we will become a beautiful residential area.

Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in Kroeten my whole life, and have always lived positively here. It is a nice, tidy neighbourhood with various amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't been living here very long, about six months I think, but I immediately felt at home. The Mastbos is literally around the corner for a lovely walk, as is the Ginniken square for nice restaurants and cafés. The Albert Heijn is a 5-minute bike ride or a 15-minute walk. The station is a 15-20 minute bike ride. There are many large, beautiful houses to admire here, the atmosphere feels very village-like, and it's all very lovely. It also feels safe.
