A grand apartment on the Oude Markt
This apartment sits right on the Oude Markt, the historic heart of Sittard, where the square buzzes with cafés and the day starts with the market stalls being set up.

At 122 m², this is a generous floor plan, and the rent of €1,375 is 35% above the neighbourhood average of €1,015, which puts it on the high side for the area. For context, apartments in Sittard-Geleen typically go for around €1,015, so you are paying a premium for the size and the setting.
