About Schoolstraat 7B, Venray
The asking price of €199,000 is 45% below the average asking price in Centrum (€358,673), but the apartment is also smaller than average (54 m² vs 115 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €3,685, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,421 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a bit more per square metre for a compact home in the centre.
The apartment has energy label C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1998). In the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have label A and 20% have A+, so this is not the most efficient, but it's far from the worst. You can expect moderate energy bills, though not as low as a modern A+ property.
Very convenient. Jumbo is just 113 m away, and Albert Heijn is 414 m, so both are within a short walk. There are also several other supermarkets within a kilometre. For daily groceries, you won't need to go far.
There are several schools within walking distance. Petrus' Banden primary school is 521 m away, and Basisschool De Bongerd is 730 m. For secondary education, the nearest school is 1.1 km away. There's also a special education school, Foooocus Venray, just 113 m from the apartment.
The train station is 3.3 km from the apartment. That's about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus journey. It's not on your doorstep, but it's easily reachable.
The neighbourhood has 280 reported crimes, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. The area is a typical city centre with a mix of residential and commercial, so some petty crime is possible. However, residents give the neighbourhood an 8.8 out of 10 overall, suggesting they feel safe and satisfied.
With a price of €199,000, it's below the national average and well under the neighbourhood average. The compact size (54 m²) makes it affordable, and the centre location means you can walk to shops and amenities. It could be a good starter home, though you'd need to check mortgage options based on your income.
