NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Jan van den Domstraat feels generous from the moment you step inside. With 150 m² of floor space, it is 47% larger than the neighbourhood average of 102 m², a real bonus for a home of this type. The asking price of €375,000 is keen compared to the median of €399,000 in the area, making it an interesting proposition.

Well, I think it's going downhill. I've lived here for 26 years. Everything is mixed together and that sometimes clashes. I don't have any trouble with anyone, I don't meddle with anyone either, I greet everyone and go back inside. Recently they kicked in the gates and the sheds because I live downstairs and they looked in mine, but there was only junk. I think they were looking for electric bikes. Well, I don't have a scooter, so tough luck. No, the neighbourhood is going downhill. It's a shame because I like living here, but there's no cosiness anymore. At 6 o'clock you don't see a soul outside. I sit in my garden and I just don't see anyone walking on the galleries, because that's what I look out onto. I was born in a working-class neighbourhood, everything was different there. We were there for each other and at the time we'd have coffee together and have a good gossip hahahahah. That's not the case here, which I think is a shame. Groendijplein is also difficult to reach for deliveries, that's also rubbish. You have to go to a pickup point. I don't have a car, so you have to bother people again to give me a lift. Really annoying. This used to be a 55-plus flat, now it's not anymore. Everything mixed together.
