About Maasboulevard 10B, Maastricht
The rent is 64% above the neighbourhood average of €1,740, and also above the average per m² (€22.71 vs €27.40 for this home). However, this is a large apartment (104 m²) in a prime riverside location, so the premium reflects the size and setting. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value space and a view.
Boschstraatkwartier is a very urban, densely populated area with a young population. Most residents live alone, and there are few families. It is lively and central, but also has a higher crime rate than quieter suburbs. The area is well served by shops and public transport.
SPAR is just 109 metres away, so you can pop out for milk in a minute. Jumbo is 465 metres (a five-minute walk), and Albert Heijn is 617 metres (about eight minutes).
The energy label is C, which is average for a building from 1997. You can expect moderate heating costs, but not as low as a modern A-label home. The exact costs depend on your usage.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 104 m², it is likely a two- or three-bedroom apartment, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The listing does not mention any outdoor space. Given the apartment is on the Maasboulevard, a balcony is possible but not confirmed. You would need to ask the agent.
The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, about a 17-minute walk or a short bus ride.
