Oostburg, Sluis
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Burgemeester H.A. Callenfelsstraat sits in a part of Oostburg that feels calm and residential. With 160 m² of living space on a 418 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The asking price of €385,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €340,959, but for a detached property in detached houses in Sluis that is not unusual.
Oostburg has 4,310 residents, with a high proportion of older people (31% are 65+). The neighbourhood has a mix of opinions. One resident describes it as "a dead-end street with far too many cars" and mentions tensions with neighbours. Another says it's "impoverished" and "starting to look like a rough area now." A third notes it went "from beautiful to ugly" and that "most people want to leave here." These are based on nine reviews, so they reflect some experiences but not all. The municipality Sluis covers a wider area with more variation.
For groceries, you have a Jumbo and Lidl just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Basisschool de Berenburcht and Sint Bavo. For secondary education, the Zwin College is on your doorstep. A park or public garden is just around the corner, and a restaurant is also a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Versluijs Makelaardij, Funda, Pararius, and Vastgoed Nederland.

New residents, sneaky, accuse me of a rat infestation, I get the housing association on my back. There is no rat infestation. Harassing, they want to get rid of me, that's clear, but I'm not leaving a house where I've lived since 2003. Those PMD bags are put out at times when they're not collected, that attracts vermin. Everyone is very much to themselves, I don't mind because I am too. Dogs bark, one sits locked in a cage all day, never goes outside, maybe gets walked once every 6 months. Next to me they have guinea pigs outside in a hutch, food scraps everywhere, and then I'm accused of a rat infestation? I don't even have a pet, I regularly have a gardener come because I can't do it myself anymore. Mould in the bathroom, airing doesn't help. Kitchen installed, a complete farce, but a woman can't read drawings *cough* and then they come a year ago asking if I want a different kitchen, I'm not going to sit in the noise and mess for another whole week, and there's nothing wrong with that kitchen.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe had a beautiful neighbourhood. Neat streets everywhere tidy. It's starting to look like a rough area now. Sloppy dirty.

Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally good, I have no contact with 1 neighbour; quarrel is a strong word but several people have had difficulties with this neighbour. It is a fairly quiet neighbourhood and I have good contact with some people, the neighbours across the street are friends. But it's not like it used to be, the social cohesion has decreased. The cohesion that exists takes place between small and thus separate groups on the street. But overall, it's good living, fairly quiet.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe poor road surface was supposed to be replaced ten years ago, along with the sewer system. A few neighbours are sociable towards various people. Many people on the street have little contact with each other. The municipality of Sluis is only concerned with increasing the burden on citizens every year, as well as the water board, etc. You don't see them and you don't hear from them!

About Burgemeester H.A. Callenfelsstraat 37, Oostburg
The asking price is €385,000, which is above the neighbourhood average of €340,959 and the median of €299,000. However, this is a detached house, and the average price per m² in Oostburg is €2,664, so for 160 m² that would come to about €426,000. Given that, the price seems in line with the market for this property type.
The home has energy label E. That means it is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 19.2% of homes have label A, 11.5% label B, 38.5% label C, and 30.8% label D or lower.
The nearest train station is 48.9 km away, so this is not a location for daily commuting by train. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
