About Cronjéstraat 56, Nijmegen
The asking price of €300,000 is 36% below the neighbourhood average of €466,333. However, the apartment is also 58% smaller than the average home in Heseveld (52 m² vs 124 m²). On a per-square-metre basis, the price of roughly €5,769 is above the neighbourhood average of €3,900, so you're paying a premium for the compact size. Given the limited supply, only three apartments for sale in the neighbourhood, the price is in line with what's available.
The apartment has an energy label D. This is a common rating for a home built in 1953, and it means heating costs will be moderate but not excessive. In the neighbourhood, two-thirds of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical for the area. You can expect reasonable energy bills, but it's worth noting that no homes in Heseveld have an A or B label.
