About Belgiëlaan 278, Enschede
The asking price of €224,500 is about 33% below the average asking price in Boswinkel-De Braker (€337,143) and also below the median of €287,000. However, the apartment is smaller than the neighbourhood average (69 m² vs 115 m²), so the price per m² is roughly in line with the market. Given the compact size, the price is keen for a buyer looking for an affordable entry into the area.

The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though not on your doorstep.
