I myself quite like living here
Auto-translated to English by AIThe worst place I have ever been in my life was yesterday when a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene. Eventually someone says I can't call the police and that they will fix the car for you. I wish I could leave this neighbourhood.,,,

About Eikstraat 27, Breda
The asking price of €495,000 is 26% above the average asking price in Tuinzigt (€392,755) and also above the median (€375,000). Terraced houses in the neighbourhood sell for an average of €385,234, taking about 43 days to sell. Given the energy label G and the need for modernisation, the price is on the high side compared to other homes in the area.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. Heating costs are likely to be high, and the property will need significant insulation, double glazing or a new heating system to improve the label. In Tuinzigt, most homes for sale have better labels: over 54% are label A or better, and only 22.9% are label D or lower.
Resident reviews are divided. One review mentions a serious incident of violence and vandalism, calling it "the worst place I have ever been in my life." Another resident says they like living there. The neighbourhood recorded 509 total crimes in the latest data, but no breakdown is available. It is best to visit at different times to get your own impression.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle.
Primary school Kbs De Weerijs is 503 m away (a five-minute walk). Secondary schools within walking distance include Michaël college (561 m), Orion Lyceum (562 m) and Markenhage (617 m). There are 66 schools within 5 km, so plenty of choice.
The house was built in 1933, so it is nearly 90 years old. With energy label G, it likely has original single glazing, poor insulation and an old heating system. The listing does not mention any renovations, so expect to invest in modernisation.
