This is my own house. I don't quite understand that there is 65m of living space while it is 140m.
Auto-translated to English by AIWe live in an apartment that is completely our thing, surrounded by beautiful houses of all classes. The neighbourhood is green and below us there is a large daycare centre. You can also enjoy lovely walks and you are quickly in the Dordtse Biesbos, which is great for cycling. There is still a lack of a food market shop, but the Sterrenburg shopping centre is nearby. The neighbourhood is well maintained and looks tidy. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood has only one through road, but they are thinking about a second access.
