Seislaan is a small, calm neighbourhood with 565 residents, many of whom are 65 or older. One resident describes it as a place where "I never thought I'd be living among the elderly and very elderly," adding that "especially three old men do a lot of gossiping and decide whether I could smoke in my own house, whether I could have cats, and there is a lot of nagging and backbiting." The neighbourhood Seislaan has a high proportion of single-person households and few families with children, giving it a quiet, somewhat insular feel.
For groceries, the Jumbo is just around the corner, and the Aldi is a couple of streets away. The Herman Faukeliusschool primary school is a five-minute walk, and the CSW Toorop Talentcollege secondary school is also within walking distance. The municipality Middelburg offers further amenities like a GP practice and a park within a ten-minute walk.

Especially three old men do a lot of gossiping and decide whether I could smoke in my own house, whether I could have cats, and there is a lot of nagging and backbiting. I was also more or less bullied away. When I first moved here as a "youngster," I volunteered for others, but when I had a severe stroke 6 months ago, they literally stood by and watched. Since then, I have lost trust in the fellow residents here.

About Noordweg 111, Middelburg
The asking price of €375,000 is in line with the market for terraced houses in Middelburg. The home has 90 m² of living space and a 215 m² plot, which is a decent size for a pre-war house. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar listings.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the house is not energy-efficient and will have high heating costs. The home dates from 1929 and likely has poor insulation, single glazing, and an old heating system. You should expect significant energy bills and may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing.
Seislaan is a quiet neighbourhood with a high proportion of elderly residents. One resident gave it a 7 out of 10 but mentioned issues with gossiping and a lack of community support. The area has few families with children and many single-person households. It's not a lively neighbourhood, but it's peaceful and close to amenities.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Herman Faukeliusschool primary school is about 219 metres away, and De Aquamarijn primary school is 274 metres away.
