Hopel, Kerkrade
AreaA spacious end-of-terrace home in Hopel
Tucked away in the Hopel neighbourhood of Eygelshoven, this end-of-terrace house from 1999 offers a rare amount of space. With a price of €495,000, the asking price sits well above the average for the area, which is something to weigh up. The home is one of the [end-of-terrace houses in Kerkrade]( /koopwoningen/kerkrade/hoekwoningen/) currently on the market, and its size sets it apart from much of the local stock.
Inside the home
The agent lists a living area of 275 m², while the BAG registration records 369 m². The plot measures 256 m² according to both sources. Inside, there are seven rooms, six bedrooms, three bathrooms, and three floors, with a volume of 900 m³. The energy label is B, which is an efficient label, so heating costs should be relatively manageable.
