Geenhoven, Valkenswaard
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Carolusdreef sits in a calm residential area of Geenhoven, with trees lining the streets and a relaxed feel. At 70 m² it's a compact two-bedroom home, built in 1978 and carrying an energy label B, so heating costs should be manageable. The asking price of €312,500 is in line with what other apartments in Valkenswaard go for.
Geenhoven is a neighbourhood where older residents and families live side by side. One resident describes it as a "nice, fun neighbourhood" and adds: "The neighbourhood is close to the centre, so you're quickly at the market etc. It's a nice neighbourhood, but I do miss something for young people. There's nothing now where young people are allowed in or anything." That sums up the character: peaceful and convenient, but not buzzing with youth activities. The neighbourhood Geenhoven has a mix of single-person households and families, and most homes are owner-occupied.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn and Lidl are both just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, Basisschool de Dorenhagen and Basisschool De Windroos, are within a five-minute walk, so school runs are easy. The municipality Valkenswaard has all the basics covered, with a GP practice and a park both a short stroll from the flat.
At the time of writing the home is listed via W. Heeren Makelaardij B.V. and also appears on Funda, so you can view it through several channels.

About Carolusdreef 2, Valkenswaard
The price is in line with what other apartments in Valkenswaard sell for. Without specific neighbourhood averages to compare against, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but given the size, energy label and location, it seems reasonable.
Geenhoven has a mix of households, including families with children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the area is quiet and green. One resident noted it's a nice neighbourhood but lacks facilities for young people.
The nearest train station is 10.6 km away, so this is not a home for daily train commuters. You would need a car or bus for longer journeys.
Albert Heijn and Lidl are both within 300 metres, and Jumbo is about 700 metres away. For daily groceries you can walk to the supermarket in a few minutes.
The apartment has an energy label B, which is good. You can expect relatively low heating costs compared to older homes with lower labels.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms, but at 70 m² it is likely a two-bedroom apartment.
