Living in Hoogbraak, Baarle-Nassau
Hoogbraak is a quiet, green residential neighbourhood on the edge of the village of Baarle-Nassau. Its character is village-like but not remote: you live there with some privacy, yet the centre of Baarle-Nassau is within cycling distance. The neighbourhood consists mainly of larger single-family homes and detached houses, many built in the 1980s and 1990s. The streets are wide, there is greenery in the neighbourhood, and the buildings are not too close together. You can also see this from the average sold area of 177 m²: these are not small terraced houses.
In the middle of the neighbourhood lies a park, which enhances the green appearance. Resident Jort describes it as follows: "Nice neighbourhood to live in with plenty of privacy. In the neighbourhood I always feel safe, it is close to the facilities in the village. There are beautiful houses in the neighbourhood. In the middle of the neighbourhood there is a large park. There is also a gym and sports club (football and hockey) within walking distance." That combination of peace, space, and yet proximity to facilities is precisely what characterises Hoogbraak.
For daily groceries and shops, you rely on the centre of Baarle-Nassau itself, which is a short bike ride away. Baarle-Nassau has a special position as a border municipality with Baarle-Hertog (Belgium), giving the village centre its own character with a mix of Dutch and Belgian shops and catering establishments. Primary schools are available in the village. The resident score for education is on the low side at 5.0, which may be related to the limited supply of secondary education in the immediate vicinity. For secondary education, students depend on surrounding places such as Turnhout (Belgium) or Tilburg.
In terms of accessibility, Hoogbraak scores an 8.0 from residents. Baarle-Nassau does not have a train station, but via the N260 and the connection towards the A58 (via Breda) or the A67 (via Tilburg), you can be on the motorway within 30 to 40 minutes. By car it is fine, but public transport is limited: there are bus lines towards Breda and Tilburg, but the frequency is low. For people who commute daily by public transport, this is a point of attention.
Compared to Centrumgebied Baarle-Nassau, Hoogbraak is quieter and greener, but slightly further from the shops. Dorp Noord has a similar living character. Those looking for more space outside the built-up area can also look at Buitengebied Baarle-Nassau.
