Hengelosestraat 98-8

A spacious apartment on the edge of the city centre

This apartment on Hengelosestraat feels bright and modern, with a generous 124 m² of living space. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €3,000 per month, the rent is well above the neighbourhood average of €1,150, but the floor area is 82% larger than the typical 68 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is in line with the market. For context, this is one of the apartments in Enschede currently available.

Boddenkamp: a lively, central neighbourhood

Boddenkamp sits just inside the city ring, with a very high address density of 3,064 addresses per km², so it feels truly urban. The population is mixed: many young adults (25-45) and a fair number of students, with smaller households (average 1.9 people). There are few families with children, and most homes are apartments. The neighbourhood has a high turnover: homes here are rented out in an average of 7 days, indicating a fast-moving market. For more on the area, see the Boddenkamp neighbourhood.

The train station is a five-minute walk, making commutes easy. The neighbourhood also has a GP practice and a park within a few hundred metres.
