It's a nice neighbourhood to live in. I feel safe and most people are friendly. However, we do think the greenery is really in need of renewal, and the pavements and roads also give a somewhat outdated and neglected impression. The neighbourhood could do with a makeover and more colour. The playground in the Dassenkuil has just been newly laid out, but it's really only for a certain age group. The older children have nothing. Too bad!

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here as a child, a bit further down from where I live now, and I know this neighbourhood like the back of my hand. I find it reasonably quiet, because it's a care flat where I've been living for 13 months now. I feel safe, as long as I don't have to go out in the evening. You have everything nearby: supermarkets, drugstores, GP, dentist. Only the pharmacy is a bit further away. I feel at ease and quite safe in the neighbourhood, and I'm glad I got this flat for medical reasons. In the evening it's less safe because of drug dealers who sometimes hang around the car park, but that hasn't disturbed my living pleasure so far. And because I lived a bit further down this street as a child, I feel at home in this neighbourhood, and it brings back fond memories when I walk or ride my mobility scooter through the area.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a year now. Quiet neighbourhood and quick to have a chat with people. Pleasant and welcoming neighbourhood.

About Fortunapark 8, Geleen
The asking price is 28% above the neighbourhood average of €352,571, but the house sits on a 342 m² plot, which is much larger than typical for Geleen-Noord. The floor area of 84 m² is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 136 m². So the price reflects the land more than the house itself. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the garden.
The home has energy label B, which is efficient. In the neighbourhood, about 27% of homes have label A and 9% label B, so this is above average. You can expect relatively low energy costs compared to older homes with lower labels.
Residents generally feel safe during the day, but one review mentions that in the evening it can feel less safe due to drug dealers around the car park. Overall, the neighbourhood scores 7.7 out of 10 for satisfaction, and most people describe it as quiet and friendly.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool de Driesprong (638 m) and OBS de Duizendpoot (945 m). For secondary education, DaCapo-College is about 1.2 km away. The neighbourhood has a good range of schools for different ages.
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This gives you direct connections to Sittard and beyond.
The plot is 342 m², which is generous for a semi-detached house in this area. The garden is not described in detail in the listing, but the size suggests plenty of outdoor space for gardening, play, or relaxation.
