Bleijerheide, Kerkrade
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s terraced house on Vroenstraat sits in a leafy part of Kerkrade, with a large 254 m² floor area and a 240 m² plot. The energy label C means it's reasonably efficient, though the pre-war construction may need some upkeep.

The area has a mix of families and singles, with many pre-war homes. For more context, see the neighbourhood Bleijerheide page.

Nice, very quiet neighbourhood with nice houses
Auto-translated to English by AIRight from the start, men were busy using drugs. The municipality of Kerkrade did little with the police, and it hasn't helped at all; drug dealers are still active. Luckily, we are now in a safe place where you can go for a walk without worry. The municipality of Kerkrade is driving families away from Kerkrade and prefers Ukrainian people over their own Dutch people. It would be good if Russia dropped a bomb on the town hall of Kerkrade; then maybe something good would come back in its place.

About Vroenstraat 9, Kerkrade
The asking price of €325,000 is slightly above the average sold price in Bleijerheide (€268,686) and the current average listing price (€301,495). However, this house is larger than average (254 m² vs 215 m²) and sits on a 240 m² plot, which justifies the premium. Comparable homes in the area have sold for around €1,618 per m², so the price per m² here is about €1,280, which is actually below that average.
Bleijerheide is a quiet residential area with a mix of pre-war and post-war homes. Residents' opinions vary: some praise the peace and proximity to Germany, while others mention issues like litter and occasional disturbances. The neighbourhood has a moderate urban density and a diverse population, with many singles and families. The overall review score is 5.38 out of 10 based on three reviews.
The house has an energy label C, which is average for a 1930s home. It means the property is reasonably insulated but not as efficient as modern builds. You can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about 21% of homes have label C, while 42% have a lower label (D or worse), so this house is slightly better than many older homes in the area.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool Bleijerheide is just around the corner (197 m), Openbare Basisschool de Schatkist is a couple of streets away (432 m), and Basisschool De Diabolo is about a ten-minute walk (662 m). For secondary education, Het Martin Buber is about 1 km away, and there are other options within a few kilometres.
The nearest train station is 2.0 km from the house, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though you'd likely want a bike or car for the trip.
PLUS and Aldi are both just around the corner (367 m), so daily shopping is very convenient. Jumbo is about a ten-minute walk (905 m), and Albert Heijn is a bit further at 1.5 km. You have several options within easy reach.
With 254 m² of living space and a 240 m² plot, this terraced house offers plenty of room for a family. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and singles, and there are several primary schools nearby. However, the house was built in 1930, so you may need to consider potential maintenance and modernisation.
