Binnenstad, Oldenzaal
NeighbourhoodThis 198 m² apartment on Hofstraat sits right in the lively centre of Oldenzaal. Built in 1927 and with energy label B, it combines character with decent efficiency. The asking price of €575,000 is 15% above the neighbourhood average of €501,361, but you get 55% more floor space than the typical home in the area, so it's on the high side, but the extra square metres explain it. For context, apartments in Oldenzaal vary widely in size and price.
Binnenstad is a compact, mixed neighbourhood with 2,555 residents. One resident describes it as a "multicultural working-class neighbourhood, room for special people too:)" and adds: "Still go to the neighbour across the street for an egg you're short of when cooking? A beer on the doorstep? A weekend camping together? Or a nice neighbourhood BBQ? It's all possible in our little village in the city centre!" That sums up the friendly, community spirit. The area has a high proportion of older residents (41% aged 65+) and many single-person households, so it's not a typical family neighbourhood. The municipality Oldenzaal is a small city with a historic core.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Lidl and Aldi are a couple of streets away. The Nutsschool voor Basisonderwijs is a five-minute walk, and the Twents Carmel College is within walking distance for secondary school. A park or public garden is a ten-minute walk away, and the train station is about the same distance. So most daily errands are on foot.
At the time of writing the home is listed via KockvanBenthem Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.
