Tuinzigt, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis 2021-built terraced house on Haagweg brings a fresh, energy-efficient feel to a neighbourhood where older homes dominate. With an A+++ label, it's exceptionally efficient. At €535,000, the asking price is 29% above the neighbourhood average of €414,379, so it's on the high side, but you're paying for a nearly new home with top-tier insulation. For context, only 8% of homes for sale in the area have an A+ label or better. This is one of the terraced houses in Breda that stands out for its modern specs.
Tuinzigt is a mixed urban area with a high density (3,411 addresses per km²). Based on four reviews, opinions vary. One resident calls it a "working-class neighbourhood" and says "I myself quite like living here." Another is far more critical, describing an incident where "a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene." A third says "I wouldn't buy a house in Tuinzigt myself." So it's a neighbourhood with contrasts, some appreciate it, others find it challenging. The area has many single-person households (2,735) and a relatively young population, with 2,760 residents aged 25-45. For more context, see the Tuinzigt neighbourhood.
Daily shopping is easy: a Jumbo and a Lidl are just around the corner, and an Ekoplaza is a ten-minute walk away. For school runs, primary school Kbs De Weerijs is a couple of streets away, and secondary school Curio prinsentuin van cooth is on your doorstep. A GP is also just around the corner. The train station is 2.1 km away, so you'd cycle or take a bus. The neighbourhood falls under the municipality of Breda, which offers further amenities.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Van der Sande Makelaars.

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 Haagweg 234, Breda
The asking price is 29% above the average asking price in Tuinzigt (€414,379). However, this is a nearly new (2021) terraced house with an A+++ energy label, while much of the neighbourhood's housing stock is older. The average price per m² in the area is €4,523, and this home has 119 m², so the price per m² here is about €4,496, slightly below the neighbourhood average. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value modern efficiency and low energy costs.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. It's a recent build (2021), so it likely has excellent insulation, triple glazing, and a heat pump. In Tuinzigt, only 7.7% of homes for sale have an A+ label, so this is a standout feature.
Resident reviews are mixed. One review describes a serious incident of violence and vandalism, calling it "the worst place I have ever been." Another resident says they "quite like living here." The neighbourhood recorded 509 total crimes (latest CBS data), which is relatively high for a neighbourhood of 7,850 residents. It's worth visiting at different times to get your own feel.
Primary school Kbs De Weerijs is 701 m away, and secondary school Curio prinsentuin van cooth is just 188 m from the house. There are also several other schools within walking distance, including special education options. The area has 65 schools within 5 km, so there's plenty of choice.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km from the house. That's about a 25-minute walk or a 10-minute cycle.
The plot is 134 m². The listing does not explicitly mention a garden, so it's not stated whether there is one. The house is a terraced property, so outdoor space may be limited to a small backyard or courtyard. You would need to check the listing details or visit to confirm.
The floor area is 119 m², which typically accommodates 3-4 bedrooms, but this is not confirmed. The layout is not provided, so you would need to inquire with the agent for exact room counts.
