Muzenlaan 276
’t Loon, Heerlen
NeighbourhoodA spacious apartment in a quiet part of Heerlen
This apartment on Muzenlaan sits in a peaceful pocket of Heerlen, with a large 102 m² floor plan that gives you room to spread out. The building dates from 1962 and has energy label D, the least efficient label among current listings in the neighbourhood, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €165,000 it is the cheapest of the 16 homes for sale in 't Loon right now, and 34% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €248,563. That makes it a keen entry point compared with other apartments in Heerlen.

Frequently asked questions
About Muzenlaan 276, Heerlen
Is €165,000 a fair price for this apartment?
At €165,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in 't Loon and sits 34% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €248,563. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €2,471, so for 102 m² that would come to roughly €252,000, well above this asking price. Given the energy label D and the 1962 build year, the price reflects the home's position in the market rather than being a bargain in need of work.
What does energy label D mean for this home?
Energy label D is a mid-range label, it means the home is registered as having moderate energy efficiency. In 't Loon, most homes for sale have better labels: 29% have A+++, 6% have A, and 35% have B. Only about 12% of current listings have label D or lower. You can expect higher energy costs compared to a more efficient home, but the label itself doesn't tell you exactly what needs attention, it could be the heating system or ventilation rather than the building fabric.
How is the public transport in 't Loon?
The train station is 1.2 km away, about a ten-minute walk. For daily commuting, the station gives you direct access to regional rail connections.
What is the neighbourhood like for older residents?
Nearly half of 't Loon's residents are 65 or older (350 out of 755), and the average household size is just 1.5 people, with many single-person households. The area has a GP practice 0.9 km away and a pharmacy likely nearby. The quiet, residential character and the presence of a park just 0.2 km away make it a suitable setting for older residents.
Are there schools nearby?
Yes, Basisschool Eikenderveld is 214 m away, just around the corner. For secondary education, there are several schools within about 800 m to 1 km, including a school for practical education and a special secondary school. The neighbourhood has good school coverage within walking distance.
How does the price compare to recently sold homes in the neighbourhood?
In the past period, 57 homes were sold in 't Loon at an average price of €249,711, with an average time on market of 75 days. The current asking price of €165,000 is well below that average, but it's also the cheapest listing available now. Sold prices reflect a mix of property types and conditions, so direct comparison is limited.

Experiences from Heerlen-Centrum
How residents experience their district
Very nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIPersonally, I think it's a safe neighbourhood, but that's because I know where I can go and what I'm allowed to do. If I were new here, I wouldn't feel so safe. You can encounter strange people here and experience situations that don't happen just like that outside this area. There is a lot of crime, from young to old, and if you pay close attention, you can see a lot of it. On top of that, there is simply a lot of poverty here. I see more people on benefits than working, and with each year, more and more homeless people. I see that they are trying their best to modernise the city. They are doing quite well at that, but... take the Aurora flats, for example. They've painted them all nice colours now, but that doesn't mean you've removed the ghetto. The same junkies and dealers still live in the flats as before. And I still wouldn't recommend walking alone in the dark. I think Heerlen is becoming more modern every year, but it remains my crack neighbourhood. Accessibility is fine, but we still don't have things like e-scooters or e-steps. Tram or metro. I can understand the tram and metro, but we are really lagging behind when it comes to e-scooters, etc. A few years ago, we only got those bikes you can rent... and then they basically showed that we can't handle that responsibility at all here. We destroy everything here that has any money in it or doesn't belong to us.

Experiences from Heerlen
How residents experience their municipality
In the neighbourhood there are many cultured people, very cosy! The only downside is that there are also antisocial people living here.. and they don't give a damn about anything or anyone.. there is little parking space right in front of my door, which is really not pleasant, the neighbourhood itself is quite close-knit and everyone enjoys chatting with each other during New Year's or a summer day. There is hardly any greenery here and there, some bushes here and there but that's about it.. luckily they are busy renovating and greening the part where we live, so that's something I consider a plus point for the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, it's often the case that houses have overdue maintenance due to landlords or people who simply don't care about what their house looks like.
Auto-translated to English by AIWell, the paving stones could be laid properly and the gardens maintained, and those pesky oak trees could be removed and replaced with nice shrubs.
Auto-translated to English by AIThey meddle in arguments that are none of their business
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIBad unfriendly not safe
Auto-translated to English by AIIf you like nature and peace and quiet, you're in the right place here. The neighbourhood is super clean and spacious with lots of trees and parks. You can easily walk into the countryside. Ideal for the dog or an evening stroll!
Auto-translated to English by AIVery occasionally people greet you, but that's it
Auto-translated to English by AIToo many steps at our front door. Otherwise it might be fine.
