Living in Zaltbommel Binnenstad: fortified town with character
Anyone walking through the city centre of Zaltbommel immediately notices that this is no ordinary residential area. The historic ramparts, the Waterpoort and the Sint-Maartenskerk give the neighbourhood an atmosphere you won't find anywhere else in the Bommelerwaard. The buildings are a mix of monumental properties from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, renovated townhouses and a number of newer apartments. This makes buying a home in Zaltbommel Binnenstad special, but also challenging: many properties have listed status, which brings extra rules and sometimes higher maintenance costs.
In terms of amenities, you are well catered for here. Along the Gamerschestraat and Kerkstraat you will find shops, restaurants and small specialist stores. There is an Albert Heijn within walking distance and a weekly market is regularly held on the Markt. Basisschool De Schilderspoort is nearby, and for secondary education, Cambium College is close by. GPs, pharmacy and dentist are all within the city walls.

Resident Valentijn gives the neighbourhood a 7.8 and writes: "I think it's a beautiful neighbourhood, or at least only the city centre is beautiful. I am very pleased with Zaltbommel."

Striking are the high scores for beauty (9 out of 10) and accessibility (9 out of 10), while housing scores the lowest with a 5.
