Spacious Apartment with Private Parking in Central Tilburg
Key Features
Upsides
- Prime central location in the Bomenbuurt neighborhood within walking distance of the city center, Central Station, supermarkets, and the Spoorpark.
- Private parking space included in the underground garage, which is a significant advantage in a central urban location.
- Energy label A rating with comprehensive insulation including double glazing, HR glass, wall insulation, and floor insulation, ensuring low energy costs.
- South facing covered balcony of 8 square meters providing excellent outdoor living space with optimal sunlight throughout the day.
- Quiet living environment despite the central location, with no direct roads along the building and an exclusive gated inner courtyard for residents.
Downsides
- The monthly VvE contribution of 254.30 euros is relatively high and adds significantly to the monthly housing costs.
- The central heating boiler dates from 2007, meaning it is approximately 17 years old and may require replacement in the near future.
- The price per square meter of 4531 euros is quite high for the Tilburg market, particularly for an apartment from 2007.
- Only two bedrooms are available, which may be limiting for families or those needing a home office space.
- Both bedrooms are located at the front of the apartment, which could potentially be less quiet than rear facing rooms.
