It's not the worst neighbourhood, but certainly not the best either. It's easily accessible thanks to the bus stop and there is a primary school. The area doesn't feel very safe, but things are regularly organised in the neighbourhood. It's also quite green because of the surrounding forests, including the Brunssummerheide. The housing is good, but it depends on which part of the neighbourhood you're in. It's a fairly dirty neighbourhood, not much attention is paid to hygiene. It's not very safe either, but it's not unsafe either; furthermore, it has all the facilities you need: clothing shops, supermarket, hairdresser, etc.

About Reestraat 31, Heerlen
The asking price of €159,000 is 24% below the neighbourhood average of €207,955, which makes it a keen price. However, the house is smaller than average (96 m² vs 140 m²) and was built in 1927, so it may need some updating. The energy label D means moderate efficiency. Compared to other homes for sale in Heksenberg (ranging from €139,000 to €295,000), this is at the lower end.
Heksenberg has a mixed reputation. One resident describes it as "not the worst neighbourhood, but certainly not the best either." It's easily accessible by bus, has a primary school, and is quite green thanks to nearby forests like the Brunssummerheide. However, the same resident notes it doesn't feel very safe and is fairly dirty. The neighbourhood has a moderate urban density and a mix of families and singles.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away, which is about a 10-minute drive or a 20-minute bike ride. This makes commuting by train less convenient than in more central locations, but bus stops are nearby for local connections.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: RK Bs Gerardus Majella (400 m), Rooms Katholieke Basisschool De Schakel (900 m), and RK BS De Ganzerik (1.3 km). For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.4 km away, so a bike or bus is needed.
The energy label is D, which is average for a house of this age. It means the home has moderate insulation and heating efficiency. You can expect higher energy costs compared to a modern home, but it's not the worst. In Heksenberg, 45.5% of homes have label D or lower, so this is typical for the area.
The exact size and layout of the garden are not specified, but it offers outdoor space for a terraced house in this price range.
