Jan Vermeerstraat 289

The asking price of €265,000 is 29% below the neighbourhood average of €372,531, which makes it a relatively affordable option in Withuis. However, the apartment is also 27% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 119 m², so the price per square metre is in line with the local market. The energy label G may also affect running costs.

Withuis is a densely built area with a mix of singles and couples. Most homes date from 1945 to 1970, and the area has a practical, no-nonsense feel. One resident describes it as a place where 'everyone is kind' and there are no problems. The neighbourhood has good access to shops and schools.

The train station is 2.1 km from the apartment, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. Bus connections are available in the area.

The nearest supermarket is Jumbo at 417 m, just around the corner. AH XL is 742 m away (a ten-minute walk), and there are also Jumbo, Lidl and Aldi within about a kilometre.

Primary schools De Meule (303 m) and Nova Montessori (348 m) are both a couple of streets away. Talentencampus Venlo Bao is 802 m away, and there are several other primary and special education schools within walking distance.

Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. Heating and electricity costs are likely to be higher than in a home with a better label. The apartment was built in 1971, so insulation may be limited.

There are currently 16 apartments for sale in Withuis, with prices ranging from €198,500 to €849,000. The median price is €312,250, so this apartment is below the median.
