Mariaberg, Maastricht
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Proosdijweg sits in a lively, old-fashioned working-class neighbourhood where life spills onto the street. At 43 m² it's compact, but the price, €185,000, is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because studios in Maastricht tend to be smaller and more affordable. The home dates from 1940 and has energy label C, so it's reasonably efficient without being top-tier.
Mariaberg is a dense, urban area with a mix of ages and a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as "cosy" and notes the high social control and safety for children thanks to small streets and little traffic. Another says: "People who don't know you will be curious; people have often peered into my house." The same review mentions occasional nuisance from young people trying to kick doors in, but also friendly elderly neighbours. Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood scores 6.62 out of 10. Most homes are pre-war, and the area has a high proportion of single-person households. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Mariaberg.
For groceries, you have an Aldi just around the corner and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. A Jumbo is a ten-minute walk. Three primary schools are within a five- to ten-minute walk: Basisschool St Oda, Emile Wesly Basisschool, and Basisschool Sint Aloysius. The Bonnefanten College for secondary education is also within walking distance. A park or public garden is just around the corner, and a restaurant is on your doorstep. The municipality Maastricht offers a compact city centre with cultural amenities a short distance away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Huispedia and Zekerheuts Makelaardij | Maastricht, so it's available through several channels.

People who don't know you will be curious; people have often peered into my house, and I mean really pressing their face against the window to peep. For "fun", young people have tried to kick my door in, which I think is going too far. Furthermore, there are curious, quiet, and friendly elderly people in the neighbourhood. Every kid here has a fatbike, of course. Lack of parking. Jumbo, Action, and Trekpleister in the area, plus a decent-sized shopping centre nearby. Generally, people are polite if you greet them. Rubbish could be collected more often, but that might be a Maastricht thing.

About Proosdijweg 60A04, Maastricht
The asking price of €185,000 is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €373,833, but that average is based on larger homes (average 102 m²). This studio is 43 m², so the price per m² works out to about €4,302, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,036 per m². Given the compact size and energy label C, the price is in line with the market for a studio in this area.
The home has energy label C, which means it's reasonably efficient. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label A, 12.5% label B, and 62.5% have label D or lower, so this home is above average for the area.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, which is about a 35-minute walk or a short bus ride. Maastricht's main station is within cycling distance.
