About Vijlenberg 18, Vijlen
For a 65 m² end-of-terrace house with a 338 m² plot in Vijlen, the price is in line with the market. The energy label D and the 1900 build year are factors to consider, but the large garden and village setting add value. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced for the area.
Energy label D is average for a pre-war home. It means the house has some insulation but not the latest standards. You can expect moderate heating costs, but improvements like double glazing or cavity wall insulation could bring it up to C or B. The exact costs depend on usage and the current heating system.
The closest supermarket is Albert Heijn, about 4.2 km away, roughly a ten-minute drive. There are also Lidl, Aldi and PLUS within 5 km, so you have several options for groceries. For daily shopping, a car is almost essential.
The nearest primary school is Basisschool Op de Top, just 339 metres away, a short walk. There are six other primary schools within 5 km, including Basisschool Witheim and De Kleine Wereld. For secondary education, the closest school is about 7 km away, so a bus or car journey is needed.
Yes, Vijlen is very quiet. With an urbanity score of 5 (the lowest) and only 193 addresses per km², it's a rural village. The population is around 1,270, with many older residents and few young families. Crime is low, just 28 incidents in the area, so it's a safe place to live.
The plot is 338 m², which is large for a terraced house. It's a rare find in a village setting, offering plenty of outdoor space for gardening or relaxing.
