Another says it's a "nice neighbourhood to grow up in", quiet enough for children to play in the streets yet close to activities. The area is home to many families and older residents, and most homes are owner-occupied terraced houses.

The asking price is €895,000, which is about 23% below the average asking price of €1.17 million in the Kastanjebuurt. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €962,000, so this listing is priced on the low side compared to the current market.
