About Scheelenstraat 35, Simpelveld
Yes, €743 is very reasonable for a 65 m² apartment in Simpelveld. Because it is a social-rent property, the rent is capped and well below what you would pay on the private market. The price is in line with what housing corporations charge for similar homes in the area.
The energy label is D. That is average for a home built in 1966, not the most efficient, but not the worst either. You can expect moderate heating costs, though they will be higher than for a modern A-label home.
Simpelveld is a quiet village with all the basics within walking distance. There is an Aldi and a PLUS supermarket nearby, a primary school just down the street, and a restaurant and park a short walk away. The nearest train station is 7.5 km away, so a car or bus is needed for longer journeys.
With two bedrooms and 65 m², it is more suited to a couple or a single person. The neighbourhood has many older residents and few families with children, so it is a calm environment rather than a family-oriented one.
