The neighbourhood Eygelshoven-Kom has a mixed character. Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "It's a nice, cosy, quiet neighbourhood! There is no nuisance from young people, which makes living here much more pleasant! Access to nice eateries, supermarket, public transport. There are plenty of places to walk the dog in the woods or let the dog off the lead in a park. Every Saturday there is a large market where you can eat all sorts of things." Another resident notes: "In reports there is mention of theft from cars. At weekends sometimes fireworks from LHC. The municipality does a lot of maintenance on greenery, truly fantastic." The neighbourhood has a moderate urban density, with a mix of families and older residents.
For daily shopping, the Jumbo is just around the corner. There are also several other supermarkets within a short drive. Basisschool de Veldhof is a couple of streets away, making the school run easy. For secondary education, you would need to travel a bit further, but the area has good public transport links. The municipality Kerkrade maintains the greenery well, as residents note.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via A New Home Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt was once a nice neighbourhood but not anymore. Nothing is being fixed in the apartment, it's draughty everywhere and damp, nothing is done about it, yet paying almost 800 euros. At the front, rats are running around, people have had rats on their balcony, the weeds are very high, almost up to the balcony.
