Benedenstad, Nijmegen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment sits on one of Nijmegen's oldest squares, with the lively market just outside your door.

The asking price of €530,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €375,000, but in line with the average price per m² of €5,340.

Benedenstad is the historic heart of Nijmegen, with a very high address density of 3,202 addresses per km², the highest urbanity level. It's a mixed area: lots of singles (1,235 one-person households), few families with children (210), and a fairly even spread across age groups. The housing stock is mostly flats (76%), and only 13% are owner-occupied, so this apartment is part of a small minority of private homes. Crime figures are relatively high at 360 total offences, but the central location brings plenty of life. The Benedenstad neighbourhood has a distinct urban character.
For daily groceries, SPAR is just around the corner, and PLUS is a ten-minute walk away. There's also Ekoplaza and Coop within easy reach. The nearest primary school, Basisschool Petrus Canisius, is on your doorstep, and secondary schools like Stedelijk Gymnasium Nijmegen are a couple of streets away. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. Restaurants are practically next door, and a GP is half a kilometre away. The municipality of Nijmegen offers all urban amenities.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Level2 Makelaars B.V. and Funda.
