Kommelkwartier, Maastricht
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Jekerstraat 8B sits in the Kommelkwartier, a lively part of Maastricht's city centre. Built in 1799, it's a piece of history with a modern twist. At €319,000 for 62 m², the price per square metre is €5,145, which is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,879. The asking price is 48% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€619,208), but that's because this home is much smaller than the typical 137 m². For context, there are currently 18 apartments for sale in the area, and you can see how they compare among apartments in Maastricht.
The agent hasn't provided any details about the layout, number of rooms, or outdoor space. What we do know: it's an apartment from 1799 with an energy label D. That label D means heating costs will be moderate, not the most efficient, but not the worst either. Without more info from the listing, it's hard to picture the interior, but the year of construction hints at character features like high ceilings or original details.

As for address risks: road traffic noise is above the norm at 51 dB Lden, while rail, air, and industrial noise are within limits.

How residents experience their municipality
everything perfect lovely people and many amenities
Auto-translated to English by AIBorn here, many homes are poor, damp and drafty and too expensive
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople who don't know you will be curious; people have often peered into my house, and I mean really pressing their face against the window to peep. For "fun", young people have tried to kick my door in, which I think is going too far. Furthermore, there are curious, quiet, and friendly elderly people in the neighbourhood. Every kid here has a fatbike, of course. Lack of parking. Jumbo, Action, and Trekpleister in the area, plus a decent-sized shopping centre nearby. Generally, people are polite if you greet them. Rubbish could be collected more often, but that might be a Maastricht thing.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is little greenery, few amenities, and the houses are extremely poorly insulated.
Auto-translated to English by AISafety has improved slightly in recent years. However, there is still nuisance, especially from September onwards, from illegal heavy fireworks Category 4/5 in the evening hours. At New Year's Eve, we ourselves call it a war zone here, you can no longer go outside safely and that for 48 hours. With dogs, it's a lot of stress for us. Something should be done about this, you have to flee your home, living enjoyment is legally required.

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is little to do for young people
Auto-translated to English by AII have beautiful and less beautiful experiences. Too many outsiders are placed, sorry but it doesn't give a safe feeling. The little park is nice and pleasant for walking, but it's also an escape route. Install more cameras.
