I came to live here 17 years ago, but I haven't been able to connect because I'm an outsider and I find that very upsetting, which makes me very lonely here. Grandkids went to school here. Everything I've mentioned here could do with a change.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is, in a word, great. Shops, town hall and medical centre are within walking distance, the rent is very reasonable and the people are all friendly.
Auto-translated to English by AIOud Nieuwehagen is a beautiful neighbourhood to live in. The people (neighbours) here still do things for each other. Here we look out for one another and if something is up, we are there for each other. This is a neighbourhood where many families with young children live. There are also plenty of primary schools and secondary schools. The shops are accessible for young and old alike. Personally, I find it a very pleasant neighbourhood and I'm glad I live here.

About Irenestraat 4, Landgraaf
The asking price of €250,000 is 25% below the average asking price in Oud Nieuwenhagen (€334,563). However, the floor area of 130 m² is 34% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 197 m². So the price per square metre is actually higher than average, but the total price is lower because the home is smaller. Whether it's fair depends on how you value size versus price.
The home has energy label D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not as well insulated as newer homes. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not the lowest bills. In the neighbourhood, about 35% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Oud Nieuwenhagen has many families with young children, according to residents. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and secondary schools are also nearby. One resident notes that neighbours look out for each other, which can be reassuring for families. However, another resident felt isolated as an outsider, so the community may be more welcoming to those who already have local ties.
The PLUS supermarket is just around the corner (about 700 m), and Jumbo and Lidl are also within a five-minute walk. A GP practice is 500 m away, and there are restaurants within 400 m. For daily needs, you won't have to go far. The train station is 2.2 km away, so a short bike ride or drive.
The house was built in 1948, so it's a pre-war property. The energy label D suggests it has some modernisation, but older homes often require maintenance. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it's worth considering that some updates may be needed. The plot of 238 m² gives you outdoor space, but the garden is not described in detail.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood has a moderate urbanity level, so car ownership is common.
In the past year, 43 homes were sold in Oud Nieuwenhagen at an average price of €309,229, with an average selling time of 69 days. The asking price of €250,000 is below that average, but the home is also smaller than average. The market here is not exceptionally fast, so you may have some time to decide.
