Living in Groenstraat-Zuid, Venlo

Anyone visiting Groenstraat-Zuid for the first time will immediately notice that this is a quiet, mature neighbourhood. No busy through roads, no big-city dynamics, but a residential area that has found its character. The buildings consist mainly of ground-floor homes, terraced houses and semi-detached houses, with the occasional detached property. A large part of the housing stock dates from the 1970s and 1980s, which means buyers must take energy labels into account: the average gas consumption of 1,010 m³ and electricity consumption of 2,920 kWh are at a level typical of older homes that have been partially improved, but where further sustainability measures are a logical investment.

The neighbourhood is located in the district Venlo-Oost-Noord, on the south side of Groenstraat.
