NeighbourhoodThis end-of-terrace house on Smirnoffstraat sits in a neighbourhood that feels a bit rough around the edges. One resident describes it as a 'dangerous environment', a stark warning that life here isn't for everyone. Priced at €365,000, it's slightly below the neighbourhood average of €367,769, which makes sense given the area's reputation. For context, terraced houses in Helmond typically sell for a range of prices, and this one is on the lower end.
Straakven is a densely populated neighbourhood with 2,875 residents and a mix of families and singles. About 41% of homes are owner-occupied, and 64% are single-family houses. The area has a high density of addresses (2,124 per km²), so it's definitely urban. But the single review on paints a troubling picture: 'Some residents are extremely dangerous. Threatening with death, I could write a book about it!!!!!', that's the only feedback from a resident, so it's worth taking seriously. The neighbourhood Straakven has its challenges, but it's also close to amenities.
For groceries, you've got a Lidl just around the corner and a Jumbo a ten-minute walk away. Schools are nearby too: De Goede Herder primary school is a couple of streets away, and the Dr. Knippenbergcollege secondary school is about a five-minute walk. The municipality Helmond offers a range of services, but the neighbourhood itself feels a bit isolated from the town centre.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including De Huizenbemiddelaar c.s. Helmond, Funda, and Pararius. The agent has provided full details on the property, so you can get a clear picture of what's on offer.
