Boxtel-Centrum, Boxtel
NeighbourhoodThis 1914 semi-detached house on Ridder van Cuijkstraat sits right in the centre of Boxtel, where the streets are lively by day and quieter at night. With 86 m² of living space and a 275 m² plot, it's a compact home with a generous garden. The asking price of €615,000 is 48% above the neighbourhood average of €416,900, so it's on the high side, partly because it's one of only five homes currently for sale in the area. For context, semi-detached houses in Boxtel typically sell for around €502,500.
Boxtel-Centrum has a mixed reputation, based on three resident reviews. One resident says: "Living in the centre is cosy during the day. In the evening, poorly lit streets and shady characters on the street. Lots of litter scattered along the Dommel where young people hang out, which attracts rats." Another describes it as "a quiet neighbourhood with friendly people, but you do notice that some things are missing", specifically greenery, amenities and public transport. A third review calls it "quiet and safe" with plenty of greenery nearby. The neighbourhood has over 8,000 residents, mostly singles and couples without children, and a mix of owner-occupied and social housing. You can read more about the neighbourhood Boxtel-Centrum.
For your morning bread, PLUS is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are two chip shops on the street itself. The Angela School (primary) is a five-minute walk, and the Baanderherencollege vmbo (secondary) is just beyond that. A park or public garden is a couple of streets away, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. For a restaurant, you're on your doorstep. The municipality Boxtel offers a compact, walkable centre.

Living in the centre is cosy during the day. In the evening, poorly lit streets and shady characters on the street. Lots of litter scattered along the Dommel where young people hang out, which attracts rats. Bins are full, they could be emptied more often, especially in the summer.
Auto-translated to English by AIOverall, I enjoy living here. The atmosphere is nice and the people are friendly; you feel a certain sense of community. It feels safe enough to take a walk in the evening, and the houses are well-maintained. However, I do notice that there is too little greenery — there are hardly any trees or parks in the area, which makes it a bit drab. I also miss some amenities like nice cafés, shops, or sports facilities; for that you quickly have to go to another neighbourhood. And public transport isn't great, so without a car it can be a hassle to get anywhere. Explanation of the satisfactory aspects (safety, community, hygiene, housing, education): The neighbourhood generally feels safe, residents keep a good eye out. People know each other a bit and say hello, which makes it pleasant. The streets are kept reasonably clean and rubbish is collected properly. The houses are in good condition, and there are plenty of schools in the area that do fine — not exceptional, but just okay. Explanation of the unsatisfactory aspects (greenery, amenities, accessibility): There is really too little greenery: hardly any trees, no playgrounds or small parks where you can relax. In terms of amenities, the offering is limited, especially if you're looking for something fun to do in the neighbourhood. And accessibility could be better: the bus doesn't run often and the station is far away, which makes it difficult if you don't have a car.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a quiet neighbourhood with plenty of greenery nearby, such as Molenwijk Park. Several supermarkets are easily accessible (5 minutes by bike) and there are 2 chip shops on the street. There is a mix of owner-occupied homes and social housing, which ensures a diverse group of people. It's actually always clean and I have never experienced any nuisance.

About Ridder van Cuijkstraat 52, Boxtel
The asking price of €615,000 is 48% above the average asking price in Boxtel-Centrum (€416,900) and also above the average sold price of €502,538 for similar homes. However, it's one of only five homes currently for sale, and the property includes a 275 m² plot. The price is on the high side, but the market in this neighbourhood is thin, so it's hard to compare directly.
The home has energy label D. That's less efficient than the current market average in the neighbourhood, where all other homes for sale have label A or better. With label D you can expect higher energy costs, especially for heating, compared to a more modern home.
Residents have mixed views. One says it feels safe enough to walk in the evening, another mentions poorly lit streets and 'shady characters' at night. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 399, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to judge. Overall, the sense of community is described as good, with neighbours keeping an eye out.
PLUS and Albert Heijn supermarkets are within a five-minute walk. There are two chip shops on the street. Primary and secondary schools are within walking distance (Angelaschool and Baanderherencollege). A park is a couple of streets away, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. Restaurants are on your doorstep.
The train station is 1 km away, about a ten-minute walk. Residents note that bus services are infrequent, so a car is handy for getting around. The neighbourhood has an address density of 1,706 per km², which is fairly urban but not as connected as a big city.
The plot is 275 m², which is generous for a semi-detached home in the centre. One resident mentions that some parts of the neighbourhood lack greenery, but this home's plot offers private outdoor room.
