Markt, Middelburg
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Koestraat puts you right in the lively centre, with the Markt square just a couple of streets away. At 58 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the 1989 build means it's more modern than many homes in this historic area. The asking price of €250,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €493,923, partly because of the smaller floor area. For context, apartments in Middelburg typically sell for around €4,113 per m².
The neighbourhood Markt is the beating heart of the city, literally buzzing, as one resident puts it: "The city is always buzzing, always busy and lively. Plenty of choice in terms of shops, cafés and restaurants too. I love it here!!" Another resident simply calls it "Top." Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 9.44 out of 10. It's a very urban area with over 3,000 addresses per km², mostly one-person households (680 out of 1,380 residents), and a youngish population, the largest age group is 25 to 45. The energy labels in the area are mostly D or lower (60%), so this home's D label is typical.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and SPAR is a five-minute walk away. There's also a Jumbo and an Aldi within a ten-minute walk. For schools, ABS Middelburg primary school is about a ten-minute walk, and Sted SGM Nehalennia secondary school is a couple of streets away. The municipality Middelburg keeps the centre clean, as residents note, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Dingemanse makelaars and also appears on Pararius, so it's available through several channels.

About Koestraat 8, Middelburg
The asking price of €250,000 is 49% below the neighbourhood average of €493,923, but the apartment is also 58% smaller than the average home in the area (58 m² vs 139 m²). The price per m² works out at about €4,310, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,113 per m². So it's priced keenly for its size, but not a bargain compared to other small apartments.
The energy label is D. In this neighbourhood, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so it's fairly typical. A D label means moderate energy efficiency, you can expect reasonable heating costs, but not as low as a modern A-rated home. The apartment was built in 1989, so it likely has some insulation but not the latest standards.
The Markt neighbourhood is very central and lively, with all amenities within walking distance. Albert Heijn is 274 m away, SPAR is 335 m, and there are plenty of restaurants and cafés, the nearest restaurant is just 0.2 km. The train station is 0.8 km away, and a GP is 0.4 km. Residents praise the cleanliness and the buzz of the city centre.
The nearest primary school is ABS Middelburg, about 748 m away (a ten-minute walk). For secondary education, Sted SGM Nehalennia is 906 m away, and there are several other options within 1 km, including Het Bolwerk and Calvijn College. The area has 43 schools within 5 km, so plenty of choice.
There are currently 26 homes for sale in the Markt neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €235,000 to €1,300,000. The median price is €374,000, so this apartment at €250,000 is on the lower end. In the past year, 74 homes were sold, with an average selling price of €435,358 and an average time on market of 36 days.
With 58 m² and likely two bedrooms (typical for this size), it's well suited for a single person or a couple. The neighbourhood has many one-person households (680 out of 1,380 residents), so it's a common setup. The compact layout means less maintenance, and being in the centre, everything is on your doorstep.
