Frequently asked questions
About Veldhofstraat 51, Eygelshoven
Is the rent of €1,495 reasonable for this apartment?
The rent is 74% above the neighbourhood average of €857, but this apartment is also 109% larger than the typical home in the area, at 157 m² compared to 75 m². So you are paying more, but you are getting considerably more space. Whether that balance works for you depends on how much you value the extra square metres.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is an official registration from EP-Online. It indicates the home's energy performance as registered, but it does not tell you about the condition of the building itself. A label C is a mid-range label, so you can expect moderate energy costs compared to the most efficient homes.
How far is the nearest supermarket?
Jumbo is just 119 metres away, so it is on your doorstep for everyday groceries. There are also several other supermarkets within a few kilometres, including PLUS and Albert Heijn, giving you options for a bigger shop if you want to drive a little further.
What schools are close by?
Basisschool de Veldhof is just 66 metres away, making it a very short walk for younger children. Two other primary schools are within about two kilometres. For secondary education, the nearest option is around 2.5 kilometres away, so older students will need to travel a bit further.
How is the neighbourhood for peace and quiet?
Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood is generally described as quiet and cosy. One resident mentions there is no nuisance from young people, which makes living there more pleasant. Another review notes some issues with theft from cars and occasional fireworks, so it is a mixed picture overall.
