Frequently asked questions
About Van Veldekestraat 3, Oosterhout (Nb)
Is €349,000 a fair price for this terraced house?
The asking price of €349,000 is very close to the average sale price in the neighbourhood (€345,929) and the median (€336,250). Recently sold comparable homes went for around €373,333 on average. So it's priced in line with the local market, neither cheap nor expensive.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is the second-best label. It means the home is energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online.
How is the neighbourhood for safety?
One resident review mentions that crime and safety are deteriorating, but also that renovations are underway which should improve things. Another resident says there are no problems. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 58, but without context it's hard to compare.
What schools are nearby?
The nearest primary school is Kbs Helder Camara, about 2.7 km away. Other options include Nutsbasisschool Teteringen (3.1 km) and Openbare Basisschool De Springplank (3.3 km). There are also secondary schools within 1.6 km.

Is there a garden?
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size is 160 m², which typically includes some outdoor space.
What public transport is available?
The nearest train station is 8.6 km away, so it's not within walking distance.
Experiences from Schrijversbuurt
How residents experience their neighbourhood
The neighbourhood is deteriorating significantly in terms of crime and safety. They are now renovating the neighbourhood, which may take a while, but where they are working there is of course some nuisance, but afterwards it can only become more beautiful and pleasant. Bos Landgoed Oosterheide and Floraliapark are nearby, where you can enjoy walking and many activities are organised for young and old! "De Bunthoef" now on the Beneluxweg, a centre where a lot is organised, but where you can also go for serious matters, which I find very pleasant in this area. The hygiene in and around the houses could be better. Which is also partly due to the residents themselves. Better control. Perhaps more frequent rubbish collection instead of once a month, twice... Bulky waste collection again at fixed times, so that people without transport or much money can still dispose of their waste. So that it doesn't remain everywhere in the neighbourhood, where rats and other vermin take over. Currently, people have been on a waiting list for a house for years but get nothing, while those houses are rented out to "refugees"; that should be looked into more carefully. I am not against genuine refugees who are not safe in their own country, but many are men and leave their families behind in that "unsafe" country. Perhaps it's time to sort out what and who really have a right to a house. Better flow-through... e.g. people in a large house where only one person lives should move to a smaller house.
Auto-translated to English by AINo problems, lots of foreign people, but they are friendly so no issues with that. Shops nearby, buses nearby etc. A lot of renovation and construction for housing is currently going on. The municipality is doing their best to make something of it.

Experiences from Oosterheide
How residents experience their district
Nice neighbours. Cosy atmosphere of the area
Auto-translated to English by AIMy experience with the neighbourhood is good, but I miss a water supply such as a public tap and the schools in this neighbourhood are not so good; those just outside the neighbourhood are better. What is good is the wooded surroundings.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is very nice, not many strange things happen. Very accessible and connection to public transport around the corner. Primary school is in the area and there are secondary schools within cycling distance. There is a shopping centre within cycling/walking distance. Many sports facilities and restaurants.
