Quiet and village-like environment, nice people and also helpful. There's just not much here in the village. The plus, chip shop, kapsalon, a couple of cafes, nothing more.
Auto-translated to English by AILiving in Bocholtz for almost 30 years, but with each passing year, the village is declining. The municipality of Simpelveld always prioritises Simpelveld, despite Bocholtz being larger. Few to no new houses, 0 facilities apart from a neglected supermarket and some takeaway joints, greenery is poorly maintained and nothing is done about the decay of some neighbourhoods.

About Julianastraat 28, Bocholtz
The asking price of €489,000 is 54% above the neighbourhood average of €318,000. However, this home is also 31% larger than the typical home in the area (200 m² vs 153 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €2,445, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €2,279 per m². Given the size and the detached nature, the price is on the high side but reflects the property's specifications.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In the neighbourhood, 20% of homes have label A or better, 40% have label C, and 20% have label D or lower. An F label means heating costs will be high, and the home will need significant improvements to become energy-efficient. You should budget for potential upgrades.
The plot is 801 m², which is generous. The listing does not explicitly mention a garden, but the plot size suggests there is outdoor space. The home is detached, so it likely has private grounds.
