For Sale: Stylish City Retreat in the Heart of Maastricht – Capucijnengang 23A
Looking for a charming and atmospheric place right in the city center, with all amenities within easy reach? Then this studio at Capucijnengang 23A might be exactly what you're looking for. A unique opportunity to live in the historic heart of Maastricht.
This compact home of approx. 37 m² is located on the ground floor of a characteristic building dating back to 1859. The property is part of the former southern wing of the Capuchin Monastery. In the early 1990s, the monastery complex was carefully and thoughtfully redeveloped into residential units—a transformation that earned the prestigious Victor de Stuers Prize. Here, you’re living in a piece of Maastricht’s history, surrounded by both serenity and vibrant city life.
City Living at Its Best
The studio is tucked away in a quiet inner courtyard, accessible via the picturesque Capucijnengang. Once inside this beautifully landscaped courtyard—known as “the Cour”—you'll find a peaceful oasis, right in the lively city center.
Within minutes, you can reach the Vrijthof, stroll past charming boutiques, or enjoy one of the many nearby cafés and restaurants. Supermarkets, the train station, the university, cultural hotspots, and the Hoge Fronten walking area are all within walking or biking distance.
