Brandenburg, De Bilt
NeighbourhoodThis pre-war terraced house on Pluvierenlaan has a solid 99 m² of living space and an energy label B, which is better than most homes of its era. The 163 m² plot gives you a bit of breathing room. At €650,000, the asking price is 22% above the neighbourhood average of €533,727, so it's on the high side, but then, this is a well-maintained family home in a leafy part of town. For context, terraced houses in De Bilt vary widely in price.
Brandenburg is a sizeable area with over 5,700 residents, mostly families and singles. The two reviews on are strikingly negative. One resident describes it as "Ghetto life", saying: "Given the alarming increase in housing of non-Dutch people, our living environment has deteriorated from a peaceful, leafy residential community to a visibly depopulated ghetto of cultures that do not want to assimilate with the native Dutch residents." Another simply says: "It's swarming with Muslims." These are the only two reviews, so they don't represent a broad consensus, but they do paint a picture of tension. The neighbourhood Brandenburg has a mix of housing, with 39% single-family homes and 37% owner-occupied.
For your morning bread, Hoogvliet and Aldi are both just around the corner, and PLUS is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within walking distance: Wereldwijs is on your doorstep, and De Rietakker is a ten-minute walk. For secondary school, Het Nieuwe Lyceum is about a fifteen-minute walk. The municipality De Bilt offers plenty of green space, with a park or public garden a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Jos van der Linden Makelaardij & Taxaties, Funda and Pararius.

Given the alarming increase in housing of non-Dutch people, our living environment has deteriorated from a peaceful, leafy residential community to a visibly depopulated ghetto of cultures that do not want to assimilate with the native Dutch residents. The area is becoming polluted, and in the evenings it is dangerous to go out for a walk. Children are rude to criminal, making the area unsafe with fatbikes.
