NeighbourhoodA modern apartment in Geleen-Noord
This is a recently built apartment on Toscane in Geleen-Noord, a part of town where new construction meets established streets. With an A++++ energy label, it is about as efficient as homes get, which keeps running costs pleasantly low. The 60 m² floor area is compact, and at €1,253 per month the rent sits in line with the local market. For context, that is 47% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 113 m², so it is a snug footprint. Compared with other apartments in Sittard-Geleen, the price per square metre is reasonable for what is a very new build.
The Geleen-Noord neighbourhood
Geleen-Noord comes across as a mixed, lived-in area. One resident describes it as "a nice neighbourhood to live in," feeling safe with friendly people, though they note the greenery and pavements look tired and could do with renewal. Another calls it a "nice quiet neighbourhood" with plenty of amenities and green spaces. A third, who has lived there since childhood, says "you have everything nearby: supermarkets, drugstores, GP, dentist," and feels at ease, though they mention some evening safety concerns around the car park. Based on four reviews, the overall score is 7.67, and the picture is of a place people know well and mostly appreciate. The population skews towards singles and older residents, with a quarter over 65, giving the Geleen-Noord neighbourhood a calm, settled rhythm.
Life on the street
Daily errands are straightforward from here. The Jumbo is just around the corner, with an Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk away and a Lidl not much further. For school runs, Basisschool de Driesprong is a couple of streets away, and there is a special primary school within walking distance too. Secondary options like DaCapo-College are about a ten-minute walk or short cycle. The park or public garden is on your doorstep, and the train station is under a kilometre away, which helps if you commute. The municipality of Sittard-Geleen keeps the wider area connected, with Geleen's centre and its shops within easy reach.

Frequently asked questions
About Toscane 3, Geleen
Is €1,253 per month a fair rent for this apartment?
At €1,253, this apartment sits just above the neighbourhood average rent of €1,203 and the median of €1,193. The range for rentals in Geleen-Noord runs from €965 to €1,450, so this is comfortably within the middle. Given the 60 m² floor area and the very new build with an A++++ label, the price is in line with what similar homes go for here.
What does the A++++ energy label mean for my bills?
An A++++ label is the highest efficiency rating available, so this apartment is exceptionally energy-efficient. That means heating and electricity costs should be minimal compared with older homes. The label is an official registration, and with a build year of 2022, the home is designed to modern standards, so you can expect low monthly energy outgoings.
How does the 60 m² floor area compare with other rentals nearby?
At 60 m², this apartment is 47% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 113 m² for rentals. It is a compact living space, well suited to a single person or a couple. The trade-off is that you get a very new, efficient home, and the price per square metre reflects the modern build rather than sheer size.
What is it like to live in Geleen-Noord?
Residents give the neighbourhood a 7.67 out of 10 across four reviews. One says it is "a nice neighbourhood to live in" where they feel safe, while another calls it "nice and quiet" with everything nearby. There are some notes of caution: one resident mentions outdated pavements and greenery, and another flags occasional evening disturbances near the car park. Overall, it is a settled area with a strong sense of familiarity.
How far is the train station from this apartment?
The train station is 0.9 km away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. That makes commuting by rail quite practical from this location. The park or public garden is even closer at 300 metres, so green space is genuinely on your doorstep.
What amenities are within easy reach?
Daily shopping is well covered: the Jumbo is 870 metres away, Albert Heijn at 1,165 metres, and Lidl at 1,314 metres. For families, Basisschool de Driesprong is 648 metres away, and there is a secondary school at 1,204 metres. A GP practice is 0.7 km away, and the pharmacy is a bit further, as one resident notes. The park is just 300 metres from the door.
Experiences from Geleen-Noord
How residents experience their neighbourhood
It's a nice neighbourhood to live in. I feel safe and most people are friendly. However, we do think the greenery is really in need of renewal, and the pavements and roads also give a somewhat outdated and neglected impression. The neighbourhood could do with a makeover and more colour. The playground in the Dassenkuil has just been newly laid out, but it's really only for a certain age group. The older children have nothing. Too bad!

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here as a child, a bit further down from where I live now, and I know this neighbourhood like the back of my hand. I find it reasonably quiet, because it's a care flat where I've been living for 13 months now. I feel safe, as long as I don't have to go out in the evening. You have everything nearby: supermarkets, drugstores, GP, dentist. Only the pharmacy is a bit further away. I feel at ease and quite safe in the neighbourhood, and I'm glad I got this flat for medical reasons. In the evening it's less safe because of drug dealers who sometimes hang around the car park, but that hasn't disturbed my living pleasure so far. And because I lived a bit further down this street as a child, I feel at home in this neighbourhood, and it brings back fond memories when I walk or ride my mobility scooter through the area.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a year now. Quiet neighbourhood and quick to have a chat with people. Pleasant and welcoming neighbourhood.

Auto-translated to English by AII really enjoy living here. Residents treat each other with respect and are never too busy to help one another. I feel very much at home.

Auto-translated to English by AII've been living in Sittard-Geleen for just over half a year. I'm originally from Hoensbroek/Heerlen, and although that's not the tidiest place, I do feel safe there. At Zuidhof there are ALWAYS homeless people, junkies, alcoholics and many foreigners. Drugs and crime are too prevalent here in my opinion. I also find it totally unpleasant to live here without a driving licence or other means of transport. Every flat has rubbish that the municipality barely cleans up or does nothing about. Noise nuisance is probably one of the things that bothers me most here... think extremely loud music on a weekday at half past one in the morning... this happens daily and also at weekends. Nothing is done about it despite the complaints... In short, I think it's a really shitty place to live!!!

Auto-translated to English by AIThere is little negative to say about Einighausen. People interact well and kindly with each other. You can reach Einighausen easily from 3 sides. It is clean, although I would suggest a few more rubbish bins for that last bit of cleanliness. It is a rural municipality, hence lots of greenery. Sufficient traffic measures have been taken to make it safe. I myself would create a few more resting spots (benches) around the village.
Auto-translated to English by AICosy, quiet, only few bins, which means there is a lot of litter in some places, and few benches where you can sit to rest or enjoy nature.
Auto-translated to English by AIHere in our neighbourhood we are not all neighbourly, having coffee at each other's or visiting, but we look out for each other well, there is always someone who helps where needed.
