A room in the heart of Breda
This listing on Leuvenaarstraat 2A was for a room in the centre of Breda, a spot that put you right in the middle of the city's energy. This listing did not state a postcode, 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 room itself. At €662 per month, the rent sat 51% below the neighbourhood average of €1,342, which was a keen price for the area. For context, you can compare it with other [rooms in Breda]. This home has not been online since 5 November 2026.
The Schorsmolen neighbourhood
Schorsmolen is a compact, central neighbourhood where most households are single people, and the age profile skews young, with a large share of residents between 25 and 45. The reviews here are mixed, based on three reviews. One resident describes it as a "junkenhol", noting "lots of drug addicts and homeless people hanging around here. The front door looks like a rubbish dump, nobody cleans it up, the council does nothing about it." Another says: "My neighbourhood is safe and close to all shops, sometimes I get bothered by bicycles during a festival or special events, but overall it's fine to live here." A third resident, who has lived here for six years, calls it a "quiet neighbourhood" and says they have "never had any unpleasant experiences." It is a place with a real mix of experiences, so it helps to know what you are stepping into. For more on the area, see [the Schorsmolen neighbourhood].
Life on the street
Daily life here is easy because the essentials are close. For groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with an Ekoplaza a couple of streets away, and another Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. For school runs, De Singel SO and Kbs De Weerijs are both a short stroll away, while the Michaël college is about a ten-minute walk for secondary education. The train station is roughly a 20-minute walk, which makes getting out of the city straightforward. The municipality of Breda keeps the wider area connected, and you can read more about [the municipality of Breda] for the bigger picture.

Frequently asked questions
About Leuvenaarstraat 2A, Breda
Why was the rent so much lower than the neighbourhood average?
The rent for this room was €662 per month, which was 51% below the average rent in Schorsmolen of €1,342. That average covers all rental properties in the neighbourhood, including larger homes and apartments, so a single room naturally sits at the lower end. The listing did not state a floor area, so it was not possible to compare the price per square metre with other rentals.
What is the neighbourhood like to live in?
Schorsmolen is a central neighbourhood with a young, mostly single population. Resident reviews are mixed: one person mentions drug addicts and homeless people and a neglected front door, while another says it is safe and close to shops, and a third, who has lived there for six years, calls it quiet with no unpleasant experiences. It is a lively, urban area where experiences clearly vary.
How far is the train station from this room?
The train station is 1.6 kilometres from the street, which is roughly a 20-minute walk. That makes it feasible to reach the station on foot, though you could also cycle in a few minutes. The listing did not mention any bus connections, so the station was the main option for longer trips.
What shops and schools are nearby?
An Albert Heijn is 214 metres away, with an Ekoplaza at 231 metres and another Albert Heijn at 491 metres, so daily groceries are within easy reach. For schools, De Singel SO is 360 metres away and Kbs De Weerijs is 389 metres, both a short walk. Secondary options like the Michaël college are about 1.1 kilometres away.

had published only the street and price for this room. As a result, the page focuses on the street and neighbourhood rather than the property itself.
Is this room part of social housing?
Yes, the listing marks this room as social housing. That meant the rent was set at a level intended to be affordable, and there might be income requirements or waiting listed that apply. The listing did not state any specific eligibility criteria, so those details were not available here.
