Centrum, Oosterhout
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Leeuwenstraat sits in the heart of Oosterhout, with a classic 1936 facade and a generous 155 m² of living space. The 270 m² plot gives you room to breathe, while the energy label D means heating costs are something to keep an eye on. At €575,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €508,156, but you are getting a larger-than-average home. For context, detached houses in Oosterhout tend to command a premium.
Centrum is the bustling core of Oosterhout, with a very high density of addresses (2,571 per km²) and a strong urban feel. The population is diverse: a large share of over-65s (2,190) alongside a solid group of 25-to-45-year-olds (1,200). Many households are single-person (1,710), and only 540 have children. One resident sums it up: "Don't know", but the area clearly offers a mix of ages and lifestyles. The neighbourhood Centrum is compact and walkable, with most daily needs within a few minutes' walk.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Aldi a couple of streets away and Jumbo a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out: Basisschool St. Jan is a ten-minute walk, and Kindcentrum de Achthoek is a bit further. The municipality Oosterhout provides all the usual municipal services, and the city centre with its restaurants and shops is on your doorstep.

About Leeuwenstraat 28, Oosterhout
The asking price is about 13% above the average sale price in Centrum (€508,156) and significantly above the median of €419,000. However, this home is 155 m², which is 27% larger than the neighbourhood average of 122 m². Detached homes are rare in this area, so the premium reflects both the size and the property type.
The energy label is D. In Centrum, most homes for sale have a better label: only 17.7% are D or lower. Label D means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a modern home. It may be worth considering improvements like insulation or double glazing.
Centrum is very urban and lively, with a high density of shops, restaurants and services. The nearest supermarket (Albert Heijn) is just around the corner, and there are several other supermarkets within a five-minute walk. The area has a large elderly population but also many working-age residents. Public transport is limited, the nearest train station is 9.7 km away.
In the most recent data, there were 352 total crimes reported in the neighbourhood. That is a relatively high number for a residential area, but Centrum is the city centre, so some level of activity is expected. It is always a good idea to check recent trends and feel the area yourself.
Homes that sold recently in Centrum took an average of 41 days to sell. That is a fairly typical timeframe, not extremely fast, but not slow either. It suggests a balanced market where buyers have time to consider their options.
The nearest primary school is Basisschool St. Jan, about a ten-minute walk away. Other options within a short distance include Kindcentrum de Achthoek and Basisschool De Vlinderboom. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.2 km away.
