About Witmakersstraat 15, Maastricht
The asking price of €545,000 is 24% below the average asking price in the Jekerkwartier (€720,533) and also below the median (€699,000). Given that similar homes in the neighbourhood have sold for an average of €731,093, this price appears keen. However, the home is a 1900s terraced house with 141 m², which is slightly smaller than the neighbourhood average of 155 m².
The home has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating for a house built in 1900, indicating moderate energy efficiency. You can expect heating costs to be manageable but not as low as a modern home. In the Jekerkwartier, 27.3% of homes have label C, while 72.7% have a lower rating (D or below).
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride. The neighbourhood is very central, so many amenities are within walking distance.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Openbare Basisschool Binnenstad (236 m), Montessori Basisschool (594 m), and Basisschool Sint Aloysius (665 m). For secondary education, Montessori College Maastricht is 830 m away. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of young adults (600 aged 15-25), partly due to student housing.
The neighbourhood recorded 239 total crimes in the latest data. This is a relatively high number for a small area, but it reflects the very urban, central character of the Jekerkwartier with its many bars, restaurants, and student population. The area is generally considered lively rather than dangerous.
The plot size is 85 m², but the listing does not specify whether this includes a garden, courtyard, or other outdoor space. Given that it's a terraced house in a historic city centre, outdoor space is likely limited.
