A historic apartment in the Jekerkwartier
This rental apartment on Tongersestraat sits in the heart of Maastricht's Jekerkwartier, a neighbourhood where the streets hum with students and the river Jeker runs alongside. The listing does not state an energy label, so the rest of this page focuses on the street and the neighbourhood rather than the home's efficiency. At €870 per month, the rent sits 58% below the neighbourhood average of €2,092, which makes it a keen option compared with other apartments in Maastricht.
The Jekerkwartier neighbourhood
The Jekerkwartier is a compact, lively area with a strong student presence, and the figures back that up: three-quarters of households are single people and over a third of residents are between 15 and 25. It is a place where you are more likely to bump into a neighbour on the way to the bakery than to find a quiet suburban street. The mix of historic buildings, small shops and cafes gives it a distinct character, and the river adds a touch of calm. With just over 1,600 residents, it feels intimate despite being in the centre. For a fuller picture of what life here is like, the Jekerkwartier neighbourhood page has more detail.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy from here. The Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with the Coop and Aldi a couple of streets away, so picking up bread or groceries is a short walk. For families, Basisschool Sint Aloysius is a five-minute walk, and Openbare Basisschool Binnenstad is a ten-minute walk in the other direction. The train station is a ten-minute walk, which makes getting out of the city straightforward. The area is well served by the municipality of Maastricht's amenities, from the historic centre to the parks along the river.
