My neighbourhood is nice. There are kind people around you and you have people from young to old. There are shops nearby that I can quickly get to as a student, and homes that aren't too expensive.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere is a nasty woman who would interrupt you easily because she is obsessive and wants everything to be in accordance with her interests and favourite.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for a while now and it's a nice neighbourhood. It's a cosy part of Nijmegen with a section that has several supermarkets. Only amenities like Lidl or an optician would be nice if they were a bit closer. I also notice, when it comes to housing, that it's incredibly difficult to get another home. I'm a qualified nurse and am starting a master's in September and am looking for an apartment with my best friend; unfortunately, this is very difficult and we've been searching for a long time. Furthermore, it's nice that there are several buses here, you're close to the Waal beach and schools. In short, it's a very nice neighbourhood to live in, and I hope I can continue living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThere are never any unpleasant situations here and it's a friendly neighbourhood where everyone greets each other. Plenty of parking spaces and cats can also walk around peacefully.

About Dommer van Poldersveldtweg 59A, Nijmegen
The asking price is 42% above the neighbourhood average of €423,140, but the apartment is also 106% larger than the typical 87 m² in Hengstdal. Recent sales in the area averaged €482,558, so the price reflects the generous size and pre-war character. It's on the higher side, but not out of line for a property of this scale.
Hengstdal is a cosy, established part of Nijmegen-Oost with a mix of ages and a strong community feel. Residents mention convenience, shops and schools are nearby, and the area has a good bus network. The Waal beach is close, and the neighbourhood has a mix of pre-war and newer homes. It's fairly urban with 2,464 addresses per km².
The train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach the city centre or further destinations without a car.
The nearest supermarket is Coop at 167 m, just around the corner. PLUS is at 316 m, and Albert Heijn is at 550 m, all within a short walk. For a larger shop, there are additional options within a few kilometres.
OBS De Muze primary school is 307 m away, and Canisius College secondary school is 350 m away. Both are within a couple of streets. There are also other primary and secondary schools within walking distance, such as Jenaplanschool de Sterredans at 574 m.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war home. It means the property has some insulation but is not as efficient as modern builds. Heating costs will be moderate, but you can expect to pay more than in a label A home.
The floor area is 179 m², which is very spacious, so it likely has multiple bedrooms and living areas, but the exact layout is not provided by the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it's unclear if there is any private outdoor space.
