Nice, very quiet neighbourhood with nice houses
Auto-translated to English by AIRight from the start, men were busy using drugs. The municipality of Kerkrade did little with the police, and it hasn't helped at all; drug dealers are still active. Luckily, we are now in a safe place where you can go for a walk without worry. The municipality of Kerkrade is driving families away from Kerkrade and prefers Ukrainian people over their own Dutch people. It would be good if Russia dropped a bomb on the town hall of Kerkrade; then maybe something good would come back in its place.

About Kokelekant 6, Kerkrade
The asking price of €225,000 is 25% below the average asking price in Bleijerheide (€301,495) and also below the median of €289,000. The floor area of 125 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 215 m², which partly explains the lower price. Given the energy label E and the 1930 construction, the price appears competitive for the size and location.
The home has energy label E. This means it is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 42.1% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. You may want to consider potential improvements, but the listing does not specify any recent upgrades.
Resident reviews are mixed. One review mentions drug activity and dissatisfaction with the municipality, while another says it is "never really busy" with only occasional arguments. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 209, but without a per-capita comparison, it is hard to judge.
The nearest primary school, Basisschool Bleijerheide, is about 560 metres away, a five-minute walk. Openbare Basisschool de Schatkist is 886 metres away, and Basisschool De Diabolo is 1.4 km. For secondary education, Het Martin Buber is 1.8 km and Beroepscollege Parkstad Limburg is 1.9 km. All are within walking or cycling distance.
The nearest train station is 2 km from the home. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. The listing does not specify which station, but it provides a connection to the regional rail network.
The nearest supermarkets are a PLUS and an Aldi, both about 1.1 km away, a ten-minute walk. A Jumbo is 1.6 km, and an Albert Heijn is 2.2 km. For daily shopping, the PLUS and Aldi are the most convenient options.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not stated, so it is unclear if there is any private outdoor space.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms or bedrooms. With 125 m² of floor area, it is likely to have at least two or three bedrooms, but this is not confirmed. Contact the agent for the exact layout.
