About Merkelbeekerstraat 6, Schinveld
The asking price of €239,000 is 49% below the average asking price in Schinveld (€473,114) and also below the median of €389,500. However, the home is 136 m², which is smaller than the neighbourhood average of 204 m², and it has an energy label G, meaning high energy costs. Given these factors, the price is on the keen side for a buyer willing to invest in upgrades.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, indicating poor insulation and high energy consumption. You can expect significant heating bills, especially in winter. The neighbourhood has 38.9% of homes with label D or lower, so this is not uncommon for older properties in the area.
The house was built in 1840, making it one of the older homes in Schinveld, where 36.4% of properties date from before 1945. An older home often means character features like high ceilings or original details, but also potential maintenance needs and lower energy efficiency.
Schinveld is a village with a quiet, rural atmosphere and plenty of nature nearby. One resident says it has a "fairly free feeling" with nature around the corner, though they note that maintenance has declined in recent years. The area has a mix of ages, with many families and older residents.
The PLUS supermarket is just 381 metres away, so you can walk there in about five minutes. The SPAR express is 509 metres away, also within easy walking distance. For a wider choice, Albert Heijn is about 2.5 km away.
Basisschool Schinveld is 433 metres away, a short walk for primary school children. For secondary education, the nearest school is 4.4 km away, so you would need to drive or take a bus.
The nearest train station is 9.3 km away, so Schinveld is not well connected by rail. A car is recommended for commuting.
The average price per m² in Schinveld is €2,373, while this home works out at about €1,757 per m². That is below average, but the home is older and has a poor energy label. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood averaged €405,611, so this is a lower-priced option.
