About Grensstraat 10A, Vaals
The asking price of €195,000 is significantly below the neighbourhood average of €393,030 and the median of €369,000. However, the apartment is also smaller than average (80 m² vs 159 m²). Given the price per m² of €2,438 (versus the neighbourhood average of €2,790), it appears priced for its size and energy label C.
The apartment has energy label C. This means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills compared to older homes with labels D or lower. In the neighbourhood, about 31% of homes have label A, 8% label B, and 15% label C, so this home is in the middle range.
Aldi is just 138 metres away, so you can walk there in a couple of minutes. Albert Heijn and Lidl are also close, at about 340 metres. For daily shopping, you have several options within a five-minute walk.
Two primary schools are within a ten-minute walk: Openbare Basisschool De Robbedoes (883 m) and Basisschool de kleine Wereld (934 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 11.4 km away, so older children would need to travel further.
The neighbourhood recorded 210 total crimes in the latest data. With a population of 7,510, that works out to about 28 crimes per 1,000 residents. This is moderate, and residents' reviews mention no problems with safety.
In the past period, 81 homes were sold in the neighbourhood, with an average selling time of 95 days. This suggests a steady market where homes don't fly off the shelf but also don't linger excessively.
