NeighbourhoodThis studio sits above the shopping centre in Houten, right in the middle of things. At 29 m² it's compact, but with energy label A it's efficient to run. The asking price of €271,500 is on the high side for a studio in Houten, compared to other studios in Houten.
Centrum Oost is a busy, central neighbourhood with a mix of residents. One resident says: "I have lived here for 24 years and love the cosiness. Too bad I experience a lot of nuisance from the fair and some events; besides the noise and the rubbish left behind, it is a magnet for rioting youths who fight full-scale battles among themselves and with the police." Another calls it "a nice place to live and with everything nearby." The neighbourhood Centrum Oost has many single-person households and a young population.
For groceries, the Jumbo is on your doorstep, the Albert Heijn just around the corner, and the Lidl a couple of streets away. Primary school Het Mozaïek is a five-minute walk, and secondary school College de Heemlanden is also within walking distance. The municipality Houten offers plenty of amenities nearby.

I have lived here for 24 years and love the cosiness. Too bad I experience a lot of nuisance from the fair and some events; besides the noise and the rubbish left behind, it is a magnet for rioting youths who fight full-scale battles among themselves and with the police. Nowadays, camera surveillance and a large police force are needed to make it somewhat normal, with varying success.

About Onderdoor 5-209, Houten
At 29 m², the price per square metre is high compared to other studios in Houten. The home has a good energy label and a central location, which partly explains the premium. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value living right above the shops.
Centrum Oost is a lively, central area with many singles and young people. Residents appreciate the convenience but some mention noise from events and occasional antisocial behaviour. The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses and is very urban.
The train station is 2.4 km away, about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle.
The Jumbo is just 41 metres away, the Albert Heijn 95 metres, and the Lidl 193 metres. All daily groceries are within a couple of minutes' walk.
The listing does not mention a garden or any private outdoor space. The home is a studio above a shopping centre, so it's unlikely to have a garden.
