Wisselaar, Breda
NeighbourhoodThis spacious end-of-terrace house on Wisselslag feels light and airy, with a generous 148 m² of living space spread over three floors. Built in 2018, it has an A energy label, so heating costs are low. The asking price of €565,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but you are getting a much larger home than typical for the area. For context, terraced houses in Breda vary widely, and this one stands out for its modern finish and size.
Wisselaar is a diverse and cosy neighbourhood, according to the one resident review available. They say: "It is a cosy neighbourhood with a lot of diversity... everyone, regardless of their situation, gets along well." The area has a mix of ages, with many families and single-person households. Most homes are owner-occupied, and the streets are tidy with trees and small canals. The neighbourhood Wisselaar is seen by some as a deprived area, but residents who have lived here long have a very different, positive view.
For daily shopping, you have an Aldi just around the corner and a Jumbo a couple of streets away. Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Kindcentrum De Wisselaar is just a few minutes away, and Basisschool het Noorderlicht is about a ten-minute walk. For secondary education, Newmancollege is a bit further. The municipality Breda offers good amenities, and the neighbourhood has several large playgrounds with swings and zip lines.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including MB Makelaars, Pararius, and Funda.

I am currently doing an internship in Hart voor Breda Noord, where we deal with many residents and issues in the neighbourhood. The neighbourhood is very pleasant to live in, though not always safe as there are many incidents. This could of course be better; deploying a lot of police would not be a good idea, as it only scares the residents! Furthermore, more camera surveillance and weekly patrols would sometimes be nice. A neighbourhood officer who is social and open to the neighbourhood and residents could help a lot with this. In terms of location, residents, accessibility, and social cohesion, it is a good neighbourhood. Our neighbourhood is seen as a deprived area, which actually carries a negative connotation, while if you have lived here for 20 years, you have a very different view than people from outside the neighbourhood. It is a cosy neighbourhood with a lot of diversity, which you might think would not promote social cohesion, but that is certainly the case. We are interested in each other's culture and way of life, and this actually brings everyone closer together! Our differences also make us special compared to others. Not everyone knows each other in the neighbourhood, but from what I have experienced, everyone, regardless of their situation, gets along well. We also take good care of the neighbourhood itself; streets are mostly always tidy, filled with trees and small canals, very beautiful. And then we have the various large diverse playgrounds, from swings to zip lines, found in almost every corner! Very nice for both children and the whole family :).
