The asking price of €575,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €523,300 and the median of €537,000. However, this house is larger than average (120 m² vs 109 m²), so the price per m² (€4,792) is actually in line with the neighbourhood average of €4,830. Given that similar homes in Haagpoort sold for an average of €528,929, the price is on the higher side but reflects the extra space.
Haagpoort is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses. It's a mix of pre-war homes and modern amenities. The area has a young population, with many residents between 25 and 45. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, and the train station is 2.4 km away. The neighbourhood has a lively, city-centre feel.
The home has an energy label C, which is average for a house built in 1938. In the neighbourhood, 22.2% of homes have label C, while 44.4% have a lower label (D or worse). Label C means reasonable insulation, but you can expect moderate energy costs. Upgrading to a higher label could improve efficiency.
There are several schools within walking distance. Brederocollege HAVO is just around the corner (278 m), and Kbs De Weerijs primary school is a five-minute walk (500 m). Kbs Petrus & Paulus primary school is also close (612 m). For secondary education, Het Brederocollege VMBO is 444 m away.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km from the house, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. Breda's central station offers connections to major cities.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size of 135 m² suggests there is outdoor space. However, the exact layout and whether it includes a garden is not stated.

How residents experience their district
Safety is good. Hygiene is good, slightly less in some places because there is a McDonald's where some people don't clean up their rubbish. I don't have any trouble with this, and occasionally someone from McDonald's comes to clean it up. So I gave it a passing grade. Housing is also good. Everything is spacious. Accessibility for cars and cyclists is good. There is also a station reasonably close by. There is no school in the neighbourhood, so no education. You have to cycle a bit for that. About the community: it's fine. There is a neighbourhood party every year, but nothing more. I don't feel the need for that either. The neighbourhood is also reasonably green because the houses are spaced out. Many people have greenery in their own gardens. Just as there is no school, there are also no facilities. You have to cycle a bit for that again. Conclusion: I live well here. The neighbourhood is especially suitable for people who want to live spaciously and quietly. For elderly people who have difficulty walking, this neighbourhood is not suitable.
Auto-translated to English by AIBeautiful, we help each other with a joint barbecue and a neighbourhood chat. It's great here. A chat is part of it every now and then.
Auto-translated to English by AII myself quite like living here
Auto-translated to English by AInice and pleasant but too few amenities
Auto-translated to English by AINice cosy neighbourhood but has a problem with mice
Auto-translated to English by AIThe worst place I have ever been in my life was yesterday when a group of young men beat him up and smashed my car mirrors while people watched and were afraid to intervene. Eventually someone says I can't call the police and that they will fix the car for you. I wish I could leave this neighbourhood.,,,

How residents experience their municipality
Very dangerous my neighbourhood. I work as a volunteer for the last 32 years, but the situation is very very dangerous. Police don't listen. There is no gathering of the neighbourhood in the last two years. I always clean my street. Geeren Zuid Park. I have worked with Werk aan de wijk. I made art workshops. Municipality Breda didn't give 400 euros for material costs, only gave 200, so I asked my family for 1000 US dollars so I could buy materials. I'm sorry, but senior people get no respect here in Breda. (I was racially abused by a security guard in ALDI supermarket as I was giving my trolley to an old lady.) It hurts a lot as I worked for United Nations Goodwill Ambassadors for the last 50 long years, UNICEF, UNESCO, SAVE THE CHILDREN, NCIV Mr Pronk, Voices Of The Earth, for enlightenment in the visions of tomorrow. Pass the torch on to others. Hold on to the memories of yesterday. Even a small memory goes a long, long way and fulfils its purpose in eternity. Quote by M. Bugi.

Auto-translated to English by AIGreat!! Everyone knows each other. (except the Dutch residents who have recently moved in) If these people also make an effort to get to know the Moluccan residents, it will only get better. After the renovation, quite a few owner-occupied houses with Dutch residents have been added. If both parties make some effort to adapt, we will become a beautiful residential area.

Auto-translated to English by AII have lived in Kroeten my whole life, and have always lived positively here. It is a nice, tidy neighbourhood with various amenities nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't been living here very long, about six months I think, but I immediately felt at home. The Mastbos is literally around the corner for a lovely walk, as is the Ginniken square for nice restaurants and cafés. The Albert Heijn is a 5-minute bike ride or a 15-minute walk. The station is a 15-20 minute bike ride. There are many large, beautiful houses to admire here, the atmosphere feels very village-like, and it's all very lovely. It also feels safe.
