Homes for sale in Sterrenberg, Roermond

House prices and market figures for Sterrenberg, Roermond

The owner-occupied market in Sterrenberg is relatively small. Only 25% of the more than 900 homes in this neighbourhood are owner-occupied, the rest are rental properties, the vast majority of which are owned by housing associations. This makes the supply of owner-occupied homes scarce and the market therefore quite specific. Over the past twelve months, 8 homes were sold, with an average purchase price of €246,500. Prices ranged from €200,000 to €295,000, with an average living area of 122 m². This works out at a price of approximately €2,020 per m².

The average WOZ value in Sterrenberg is €169,000. That is considerably lower than the average for the surrounding district Donderberg, where the WOZ value is €202,000, and well below the municipal average for Roermond of €289,000. This lower WOZ value reflects the predominantly social character of the neighbourhood, but the realised selling prices are clearly above that. For current asking prices and selling times of homes currently available, it is best to look at the overview at the top of this page.

Living in Sterrenberg, Roermond

Sterrenberg is a quiet residential neighbourhood on the southwest side of Roermond, part of the Donderberg district. The neighbourhood was largely built in the 1970s and 1980s and has a typical 'stempelbuurt' character: many porch flats and terraced houses in a clear street layout. Green spaces are present in the form of small parks and playgrounds between the housing blocks, but it is not a neighbourhood that stands out for its special architecture or distinct identity. To be honest, that is not what Sterrenberg is known for.

What the neighbourhood does have, however, is a certain peace and down-to-earthness. The residents have been there for years, know each other, and the atmosphere is informal. The average income is €21,100, which is significantly lower than the Roermond average of €34,700, and the labour participation rate of 49% confirms that picture. Sterrenberg is not a neighbourhood for those seeking status homes, but for those who want affordable and quiet living in a place that is well connected to the rest of the city.

For daily shopping, you rely on the nearby Donderberg shopping centre, within walking distance. There you will find a supermarket and a few small shops. For a larger range, Roermond city centre is easily accessible, both by bike and by bus. Bus stops in the neighbourhood connect Sterrenberg with the centre and Roermond train station, from where direct connections run towards Venlo, Eindhoven and Maastricht. By car, the A73 is quickly accessible, which also makes the neighbourhood reasonably attractive for commuters.

There are primary schools in the immediate vicinity of the Donderberg district, and for secondary education, residents rely on schools elsewhere in Roermond, which are easily accessible. Sports clubs and recreational facilities can be found in the wider area of the district.

Residents appreciate the affordability and peace of the neighbourhood, although there are also critical comments about the appearance and maintenance of public spaces. On the Sterrenberg neighbourhood page you can read all resident reviews and find neighbourhood scores per category. One resident described the neighbourhood as follows: "It's not a fancy neighbourhood, but it's quiet, you know your neighbours and for the price you live here just fine." That sums up the character of Sterrenberg quite well.

For comparison: the adjacent Componistenbuurt and the Kastelenbuurt have a similar character but sometimes a slightly different housing supply. The Vliegeniersbuurt is also an option if you want to compare within the same district. More information about the broader supply in the district can be found on the page owner-occupied homes in Donderberg.

Who is a home in Sterrenberg interesting for?

Small families or singles who want to live quietly without the hustle and bustle of the centre also fit well in this neighbourhood.
