Schrijversbuurt, Oosterhout
NeighbourhoodThis mid-terrace house on Jacob Catslaan sits in a neighbourhood that's very much in transition. With 97 m² of living space and a 150 m² plot, it's a solid family home from 1966, but with an A energy label it's already well-insulated. The asking price of €335,000 is in line with the market, similar homes in the area sell for around €336,250, so it's fairly priced. For context, terraced houses in Oosterhout give you a good idea of what's available.
Schrijversbuurt is a mixed area with about 1,735 residents, mostly families and couples. It's fairly urban (density 1,613 addresses per km²), but with parks like Bos Landgoed Oosterheide and Floraliapark nearby, there's green space to enjoy. Residents have mixed feelings: one says "the neighbourhood is deteriorating significantly in terms of crime and safety" but adds that renovations "can only become more beautiful and pleasant." Another notes "lots of foreign people, but they are friendly so no issues with that" and appreciates the shops and buses nearby. Based on two reviews, it's a place with potential but some current challenges. The neighbourhood Schrijversbuurt page has more details.
For your daily shopping, Lidl is just around the corner, Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away, and Jumbo is also within a five-minute walk. There are several primary schools nearby, including Kbs Helder Camara and Nutsbasisschool Teteringen, both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Oosterhout offers plenty of amenities, with a GP practice, restaurants, and a library all within easy reach.

The neighbourhood is deteriorating significantly in terms of crime and safety. They are now renovating the neighbourhood, which may take a while, but where they are working there is of course some nuisance, but afterwards it can only become more beautiful and pleasant. Bos Landgoed Oosterheide and Floraliapark are nearby, where you can enjoy walking and many activities are organised for young and old! "De Bunthoef" now on the Beneluxweg, a centre where a lot is organised, but where you can also go for serious matters, which I find very pleasant in this area. The hygiene in and around the houses could be better. Which is also partly due to the residents themselves. Better control. Perhaps more frequent rubbish collection instead of once a month, twice... Bulky waste collection again at fixed times, so that people without transport or much money can still dispose of their waste. So that it doesn't remain everywhere in the neighbourhood, where rats and other vermin take over. Currently, people have been on a waiting list for a house for years but get nothing, while those houses are rented out to "refugees"; that should be looked into more carefully. I am not against genuine refugees who are not safe in their own country, but many are men and leave their families behind in that "unsafe" country. Perhaps it's time to sort out what and who really have a right to a house. Better flow-through... e.g. people in a large house where only one person lives should move to a smaller house.
Auto-translated to English by AINo problems, lots of foreign people, but they are friendly so no issues with that. Shops nearby, buses nearby etc. A lot of renovation and construction for housing is currently going on. The municipality is doing their best to make something of it.
