The WOZ value in the neighbourhood is €180,000, which is clearly lower than the average for the district Kerkrade-Noord (€213,000) and also below the municipal average of €199,000.

Living in Chevremont, Kerkrade

Chevremont is a neighbourhood best described as quiet, green and village-like in character, even though it formally lies within the municipality of Kerkrade. It is a place where people still know and greet each other on the street. The buildings largely consist of post-war terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1960s and 1970s, built during the heyday of the mining industry. Among these, you will also find newer homes and the occasional apartment complex.

The neighbourhood takes its name from the famous pilgrimage chapel on the Schaesberg, which sits on the hill above the district. That green hill is immediately characteristic of the area: Chevremont lies on the edge of the Limburg hill country, with walking and cycling paths that lead you straight into nature. Resident Erdina summed it up aptly in her review: "I live in a beautiful area in beautiful Limburg." She emphasises the nature, the peace and the pleasant living. On the neighbourhood page of Chevremont you can read more about her experience and the ratings per category.

In terms of amenities, Chevremont is not an island. There is a primary school in the neighbourhood, and for daily shopping you can go to supermarkets in nearby Eygelshoven-Kom, which is a few minutes away by bike. For more extensive shopping, you go to the centre of Kerkrade or to Heerlen. Sports clubs and a swimming pool are available in the immediate vicinity.

Accessibility scores highly with residents, and rightly so. Station Eygelshoven Markt is within walking distance and takes you by train towards Heerlen and Maastricht. By car, via the Buitenring Parkstad, you quickly reach the A76 towards Heerlen, Geleen or the German border. Aachen is about a 15-minute drive away. Bus lines connect the neighbourhood with the rest of Kerkrade and surrounding villages.

Compared to neighbourhoods like Hopel and Haanrade, Chevremont is slightly more urbanised, but it retains a village feel. Within the district Kerkrade-Noord, it is noticeable that purchase prices here are lower than average, while resident satisfaction is high. This makes it an interesting option for those looking for a home to buy in Kerkrade-Noord without paying top dollar. To be fair: the average income (€27,900) is below the municipal average and the labour participation rate of 54% is on the low side. This colours the street scene and the dynamics of the neighbourhood.
