Mariaberg, Maastricht
NeighbourhoodThis 1900 townhouse on Hertogsingel in Maastricht is a real character home. With 242 m² of living space, it's far larger than most homes in the area. The energy label is E, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €599,000, the asking price is 60% above the neighbourhood average of €373,833, but you're paying for exceptional space. For context, terraced houses in Maastricht vary widely in size and price.
Mariaberg is a lively, old-fashioned working-class neighbourhood with a mix of ages and a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as 'cosy', with 'high social control and safe for children thanks to the small streets and little traffic'. Another notes that 'people who don't know you will be curious' and mentions some nuisance from young people, but also friendly elderly neighbours. Based on two reviews, it's a place where people are polite if you greet them. The neighbourhood Mariaberg has a high population density typical of a very strongly urban area.
Daily errands are easy: an Aldi is on your doorstep, and an Albert Heijn is just around the corner. For a bigger shop, the Jumbo is a couple of streets away. Families have two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Basisschool St Oda and Basisschool Sint Aloysius. A secondary school is about a ten-minute walk away. The municipality Maastricht offers plenty of restaurants and a park within easy reach.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Marinus - Exclusief Vastgoed and also appears on Funda.

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 Hertogsingel 8, Maastricht
The asking price is 60% above the neighbourhood average of €373,833, but this home is exceptional in size: 242 m² versus the average 102 m². The price per m² works out to about €2,475, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,036 per m². So while the total price is high, you're getting a lot of space for your money.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 62.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Mariaberg is described as safe for children thanks to small streets and little traffic. There are two primary schools within a five-minute walk and a secondary school about ten minutes away. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many young adults and families.
An Aldi is just 96 metres away, so literally on your doorstep. An Albert Heijn is about 500 metres away, and a Jumbo is around 770 metres. There's also a small shopping centre nearby with an Action and Trekpleister.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, which is about a 35-minute walk or a short bus ride.
