Marktstraat 2
Echt Centrum, Echt-Susteren
AreaA home with history in the heart of Echt
This 1940 semi-detached house sits on Marktstraat, right in the centre of Echt, in a sheltered spot that still puts you in the middle of things. The listing does not state the energy label, so that information is missing. With a living area of 157 m² according to the agent, the asking price of €375,000 works out at €2,389 per m², which is 15% below the average asking price of €438,950 for semi-detached houses in Echt-Susteren. That puts this home on the sharp side of the market.

The agent describes this as a family home with five rooms spread over two floors, with a volume of 648 m³. There is a rear garden and a side garden, both reachable from the back, facing southeast. The property is freehold, has mostly double glazing and is heated by a central heating boiler. The BAG registration gives a living area of 148 m², while the agent lists 157 m².
