Jekerkwartier, Maastricht
NeighbourhoodThis spacious apartment on Prins Bisschopsingel sits in the historic Jekerkwartier, a stone's throw from the river and the city's lively squares. With 183 m² of living space, it offers generous proportions typical of a pre-war building. The asking price of €895,000 is on the high side compared to other apartments in Maastricht, reflecting its size and central location.
The Jekerkwartier is one of Maastricht's oldest neighbourhoods, with narrow streets, monumental buildings and a mix of students, professionals and older residents. It's a very densely populated area (4,448 addresses per km²), so life here is anything but quiet. Most homes date from before 1945, and the neighbourhood has a high proportion of single-person households. There are no resident reviews available for this area, but the atmosphere is unmistakably that of a historic city centre.
For your morning bread, the Coop is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. Two primary schools are within easy reach: Openbare Basisschool Binnenstad is a couple of streets away, and Rooms Katholieke Basisschool St Pieter is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Maastricht offers a wide range of cultural amenities, with a restaurant just around the corner and a park or garden a couple of streets away.

About Prins Bisschopsingel 2-02, Maastricht
The asking price is 24% above the average neighbourhood asking price of €720,533. However, this apartment is larger than average (183 m² vs 155 m²) and in a prime historic location. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the Jekerkwartier setting.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war building. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not the highest efficiency. Most homes in the neighbourhood have a label D or lower (72.7%), so this one is slightly better than many.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride. Maastricht's main station is within easy reach for connections to other cities.
The closest primary school is Openbare Basisschool Binnenstad at 256 m, followed by Rooms Katholieke Basisschool St Pieter at 719 m. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.6 km away, so a bike or bus is handy for older children.
The neighbourhood recorded 239 total crimes, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to judge. As a historic city centre, it's generally busy and well-lit, but like any urban area, it pays to be aware of your surroundings.
There are currently 15 apartments for sale in the Jekerkwartier, with prices ranging from €275,000 to €1,750,000. This one is at the higher end due to its size and location.
