Nice neighbourhood for young and old

In this neighbourhood there are a number of bungalow houses that are easily liveable for the elderly, but there are also about 7 playgrounds for children. As a result, the neighbourhood is filled with all ages. There is also a primary school in the area with a retirement home opposite. Truly a liveable place for everyone.

You can seek out cosiness, but you can also go your own way completely

Nice neighbours! Unfortunately the village has no soul, but it does have all the shops you need. Public transport and main roads nearby!
