Heuvel 3

The asking price is well above the neighbourhood average of €289,000, but this apartment is also much larger (115 m² vs 84 m² average) and has an exceptional energy label A+++. The price per square metre works out at about €5,087, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,440 per m². Given the size and efficiency, the price is on the high side but reflects the home's unique qualities.

West 1 scores an 8.05 out of 10 from three resident reviews. People describe it as quiet, cosy and safe, with neighbours looking out for each other. The population is mixed: about a quarter are over 65, a quarter are 45-65, and there are many families with children. The area has a moderate urban density (1,467 addresses per km²) and is considered moderately urbanised.

The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating costs. In the neighbourhood, none of the current for-sale homes have label A+ or better, so this apartment stands out. The year of construction is 1899, so the label indicates that significant modernisation has been carried out.

The nearest train station is 7.3 km away. That makes it less convenient for daily commuting by rail, but the area is well served by other amenities within walking distance.

There are several primary schools within a short walk: Basisschool Westerkim (654 m), J.J. Anspachschool (682 m) and Basisschool De Vlinderboom (886 m). For secondary education, Cambreur College is 1.4 km away. All are within a ten-minute walk or short cycle.

Homes in West 1 sell on average in 11 days, which is fast. This suggests demand is healthy. However, this particular apartment is priced above the typical range, so its time on the market may differ.
