A social rental apartment in the heart of Heerenveen
This apartment on Veilingstraat sits in the middle of Heerenveen, a town where daily life unfolds on foot. With a floor area of 69 m², it is considerably more compact than the neighbourhood average, which makes it a practical base rather than a spacious family home. The last known rent of €750 per month sat below the average of €820 for rentals in the area, so it was keenly priced for what was on offer. For context, this was one of the [apartments in Heerenveen]( /huurwoningen/heerenveen/appartementen/ ) at the time available to rent. This home has not been online since 5 September 2026.
