Villapark, Maastricht
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Blekerij sits in the green, stately Villapark neighbourhood of Maastricht. At €485,000 it is the cheapest of the six homes currently for sale in the area and 16% below the average asking price of €578,000, a keen entry point for this sought-after corner of the city. For context, apartments in Maastricht vary widely, but this one stands out for its value.
Villapark is a calm, leafy neighbourhood with wide avenues and pre-war villas. Two-thirds of homes are single-family houses, and three-quarters are owner-occupied. The population is older, nearly 30% are 65-plus, and many households are singles or couples without children. One resident says: "It's quiet and green, with lovely old trees. You can walk to the river and the centre in twenty minutes." Another notes: "The neighbours are friendly but keep to themselves. It feels safe and well-maintained." The neighbourhood Villapark has a strong sense of community, though it is not a bustling family hub.
For your morning bread, the Coop is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. Three primary schools are within a ten-minute stroll, including the Catholic St Pieter school and the Openbare Binnenstad school. A GP and a park are both on your doorstep. The city centre and the river Maas are a pleasant walk away, and the train station is a ten-minute cycle. The municipality Maastricht offers a rich cultural scene, but Villapark itself is a quiet retreat.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Tim Vastgoed. The energy label is D, which means heating costs will be higher than in better-rated homes, something to factor in.

About Blekerij 96C, Maastricht
Yes, it is the cheapest of the six homes currently for sale in Villapark and 16% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €578,000. However, the floor area of 71 m² is 39% smaller than the average of 116 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is actually in line with the market.
The energy label is D. In Villapark, all current listings have label B or C, so this home is less efficient. You can expect higher energy bills compared to a modern or better-insulated apartment. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices.
Villapark has a relatively small share of households with children (about 23%), and the population is older. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but secondary schools are further away (3 km). The area is quiet and safe, with parks nearby, but it is not a typical family neighbourhood with many playgrounds or youth activities.
The Coop supermarket is just around the corner (622 m), and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk (760 m). A GP and a park are both within 500 m. For restaurants, you have options within 300 m. The city centre with its full range of shops and cultural venues is a pleasant 15-minute walk.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a 10-minute cycle or a 30-minute walk. The city centre is walkable, so for local trips you may not need public transport.
In the most recent year, 122 crimes were recorded in the neighbourhood. With a population of 3,190, that is a rate of about 38 per 1,000 residents, which is moderate. The area is generally considered safe, and residents describe it as quiet and well-maintained.
