A rental on the Houtmarkt
This rental home on the Houtmarkt sits in the heart of Breda, where the streets are always busy and the shops are close by. This listing does not state a house number, postcode, property type, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €1,900 per month, the rent sits just above the average for rental homes in Breda, which is in line with what you would expect for a central spot like this.
The City neighbourhood
The City neighbourhood is compact and lively, with a mix of young professionals and students. Most households are single people, and the streets are full of energy. One resident, who gave the area 8.38 out of 10, says: "Plus point everything in the neighbourhood and downside no parking in front of the door." That sums up the trade-off of living here: everything is on your doorstep, but a car is not always easy to park. The review count is small, so it is just one perspective, but it matches the feel of a central urban area.
Life on the street
Daily life here is about convenience. For groceries, the Coop is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away, with a SPAR not far either. For school runs, there are several options within a ten-minute walk, including a primary school and a secondary school. The train station is about a ten-minute walk, which makes getting out of the city straightforward. This is a street where you can leave the car behind for most of the week, and the municipality of Breda has plenty to offer beyond the immediate area.
