Living in Kantonnier, Best
Kantonnier is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood in the south of Best. The buildings mainly consist of single-family homes, mostly terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s. The streets are clear, there is little through traffic, and the atmosphere is that of an average Brabant family neighbourhood: not spectacular, but pleasant and stable. The largest age group consists of 45- to 65-year-olds, and the proportion of families with children is strikingly high at 225 households. This is also reflected in the neighbourhood itself: playground equipment in the streets, bicycles at the front door, and a social cohesion that residents describe as warm but not intrusive.
Marian Damen, who has lived in the neighbourhood from the start, describes it as follows: "It is a nice neighbourhood with school, shops, woods and station!" She emphasises that it is a social neighbourhood where many residents know each other. At the same time, she points out a specific issue: parking. The parking facilities are no longer adequate for the current number of cars, which regularly causes frustration. This is something to consider if you are considering a home on a street without its own driveway.
In terms of amenities, Kantonnier does well. The shopping centre of Best is within cycling distance and offers daily groceries, a pharmacy and various services. Primary schools are located in the immediate vicinity, making the neighbourhood attractive for young families. Sports facilities and green spaces are also well represented: the woods around Best, which Marian also mentions, are quickly accessible on foot or by bike and give the neighbourhood a green character that you miss in more urban environments.
Accessibility is a strong point of Kantonnier. Resident J.M. explicitly mentions it: "The accessibility via the motorway is also a big plus." Best station is a short distance away and offers a direct train connection to Eindhoven and 's-Hertogenbosch. By car, the A2 is quickly accessible, making commuting to Eindhoven or the surrounding area very feasible. Cyclists are well off: the centre of Best and the immediate amenities can be reached by bike without difficulty.
Compared to neighbouring areas such as Centrum or Hoge Akker, Kantonnier has a somewhat quieter and more residential character. For more background on the neighbourhood, the full resident reviews and all district data, visit the neighbourhood page of Kantonnier.
Does a home for sale in Kantonnier suit you as a buyer?
Kantonnier mainly attracts families and home-movers looking for a quiet, well-connected neighbourhood with sufficient space. The homes are predominantly single-family homes with a reasonable surface area, which makes it more difficult for first-time buyers with a limited budget given the realised sale prices above five hundred thousand. Seniors looking to downsize will find less specific supply here. If you are considering buying, keep in mind that supply is limited: only a few homes are sold per year, which means you need to be alert and able to act quickly. If you need more time or want to get to know the neighbourhood better first, then perhaps take a look at the rental homes in Kantonnier as a temporary step.
