A classic end-of-terrace home in Kluis
Tucked away on the Mezenstraat, this end-of-terrace house from 1950 sits in the Kluis neighbourhood of Geleen, a residential area where most homes were built between 1945 and 1970. With an asking price of €225,000, the home is priced 43% below the average asking price of €392,778 for homes in the neighbourhood, which makes it a keen entry point into the local market. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Sittard-Geleen typically command a different price point, but this one stands out for its affordability.
The home itself
According to the agent, this end-of-terrace house offers 70 m² of living space across two floors, with four rooms in total, including three bedrooms and one bathroom. The BAG registration, however, lists the living area as 83 m², so there is a discrepancy between the two sources. The plot measures 467 m², and the home comes with both a front and a back garden. It has roof insulation, partial double glazing and wall insulation, and is heated by a central heating boiler. The property is in full ownership, and the energy label is C, which means it is neither the most nor the least efficient, but you can expect moderate energy costs.
