Centrum-West, Oss
NeighbourhoodThis is a substantial detached house on Kromstraat, right in the heart of Oss. With 289 m² of living space and a 901 m² plot, it's a rare find in the city centre. The home dates from 1933 and has an energy label C. At €985,000, the price is on the high side compared to the detached houses in Oss market, but you're paying for space and character.
Centrum-West is the historic core of Oss, with a mix of shops, restaurants and older housing. It's densely built-up and very urban (over 2,900 addresses per km²). Residents give it a mixed review: one says "Not really safe" and mentions "many people with knives on fatbikes", while another calls it "a good experience, there's not really anything bad". A third describes it as "Standard", a nice neighbourhood with friendly people, but with many older residents and less nature than they'd like. The neighbourhood Centrum-West has a high proportion of one-person households and a large share of residents aged 65 and over.
For daily shopping, Zapolski is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and PLUS are a couple of streets away. There are several schools within walking distance: Het Hooghuis locatie De Singel (secondary) is on your doorstep, and Hertogin Johanna V (primary) is a five-minute walk. The municipality Oss provides all the usual city amenities, with a train station a ten-minute walk away and the city park a couple of streets off.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Van der Krabben makelaardij Oss and also appears on another channel.

This neighbourhood has many people with knives on fatbikes and is really not safe. The houses could be renovated.
Auto-translated to English by AIit's a good experience, there's not really anything bad
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice neighbourhood, but there are many older people living here, which is a shame for the youth. There are no loitering youths, so that's very nice. The people are friendly and allow a lot. There is less nature; I would like to see more nature in my area. Thank you in advance for your time. Kind regards, Bas van Dinther

About Kromstraat 34, Oss
The asking price is €985,000, which is significantly above the neighbourhood average of €375,000. However, this home is much larger than typical properties in Centrum-West: 289 m² versus an average of 87 m². The price per m² works out at about €3,408, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,353 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting a lot of space for your money.
The home has energy label C. That's a decent rating for a house built in 1933, it means the property is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about a third of homes have label C, a third have label B, and a third have label A.
Residents have mixed feelings about safety. One review says the neighbourhood is "not really safe" and mentions people with knives on fatbikes. Another says it's "a good experience, there's not really anything bad". The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 181, but without context it's hard to judge. It's best to visit the area yourself to get a feel for it.
There are several schools within walking distance. Het Hooghuis locatie De Singel (secondary school) is just 174 m away. Hertogin Johanna V (primary school) is 331 m away, and Het Maaslandcollege (secondary) is 399 m away. There are also two special education schools nearby.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km from the home, which is about a 15-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to Nijmegen, Den Bosch or further afield.
The closest supermarket is Zapolski at 606 m, followed by Ekoplaza at 693 m and PLUS at 781 m. Jumbo and Albert Heijn are both within a 10-minute walk. So you have plenty of options for daily groceries.
The plot size is 901 m², which is very generous for a city-centre property. While the listing doesn't explicitly mention a garden, the large plot suggests there is outdoor space.
