In the heart of Maastricht
This rental apartment on Vijfharingenstraat sits right in the historic centre. The listing did not state an energy label, so the home's efficiency was unknown. At €1,978 per month, the rent was 18% above the neighbourhood average of €1,675, partly because the 53 m² floor area was 30% smaller than the typical 76 m² in Binnenstad. For context, apartments in Maastricht vary widely in price and size. This home has not been online since 2 October 2026.
