A neighbourhood where you live pleasantly and quietly

A neighbourhood where old and young live together. It is a quiet neighbourhood with many amenities in a well-accessible location, both public transport and shops which are a bit further away. The school is in the district. A district with lots of greenery. All in all, a beautiful and pleasant district to live in.

Nice neighbourhood to live in, quite quiet in the area and everything is within walking distance, really ideal! Small shopping centre around the corner and you can reach the village in a 10-minute walk.
