I never have to worry about my safety and it's not a busy neighbourhood. Few cars drive through, so it's quite quiet. I think there could be more nature, but that's the only thing. In the neighbourhood there is an Albert Heijn, a bakery, restaurants and a PostNL shop. So everything is nearby.

About Akkerstraat 8B, Eindhoven
At €235,000, this studio is the cheapest home currently for sale in the Schrijversbuurt and 67% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €711,063. However, it's also much smaller than average (36 m² vs 152 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €6,528, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,365 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the compact size.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1935). In the neighbourhood, 46.2% of homes have label C, and 23.1% have label A. A C label means reasonable energy efficiency, but you can expect moderate heating costs. It's not as efficient as a modern home, but better than older properties with labels D or lower.
One resident says: "I never have to worry about my safety and it's not a busy neighbourhood. Few cars drive through, so it's quite quiet."
