Living in Baai 3, Etten-Leur

Baai 3 is a quiet residential neighbourhood in the northern part of Etten-Leur, built around recognisable residential streets with plenty of greenery between the homes. The streetscape is dominated by terraced houses and semi-detached houses, mostly built in the 1980s and 1990s. The neighbourhood has no pronounced urban character, but also no village-like seclusion: it is functional, clear and focused on family life.

With 830 residents and a clear concentration in the 45 to 65 age group, this is a neighbourhood where many people have lived for years. At the same time, there is a sizeable group of 25- to 45-year-olds (215 people) and 155 children under 15, which means the neighbourhood is certainly not ageing. Families with children form the largest household type, which is reflected in the layout: playgrounds in the neighbourhood, wide streets and a scale that feels pleasant for growing children.

For daily shopping, you hardly need to leave Baai 3. The Zwartenberg shopping centre, within cycling distance, offers supermarkets and shops for everyday use. The city centre of Etten-Leur is within ten minutes by bike and has a wider range of shops, catering and the library.

Sports clubs for football, tennis and other sports are well represented in the northern part of the municipality.

In terms of accessibility by car, the location is favourable: the A58 (towards Breda and Bergen op Zoom) is quickly reachable via the Antwerpseweg. Breda is about twelve kilometres away. There are bus connections from Etten-Leur towards Breda and Roosendaal, but in practice, a private car is the norm for most residents. Etten-Leur does not have its own train station; the nearest stations are Roosendaal or Breda.

One resident writes: "It is quiet here and the neighbours know each other. Ideal if you have children and don't want to live in the middle of the hustle and bustle."

Is a home in Baai 3 right for you?

Baai 3 primarily appeals to movers and families looking for a spacious ground-floor home in a quiet environment, without the hustle and bustle of a city centre.

Overbidding is realistic in this segment. Seniors looking to downsize will find fewer single-level or step-free homes in Baai 3.
