De Noork, Hengelo
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor flat on Mendelssohnstraat sits in a quiet part of De Noork, a neighbourhood that feels more suburban than its central location suggests. With 77 m² of living space and a C energy label, it's a practical home for someone who wants a foothold in the city without the noise. The asking price of €225,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €304,833, partly because apartments in Hengelo vary widely in size and condition.
De Noork gets a 6.53 out of 10 from three residents. One calls it a "decent neighbourhood" but notes that "the closer to the railway, the worse it gets" and mentions speeding on Mozartlaan and waste around the Aldi. Another says it's "safe but boring", people keep to themselves, dogs play together, but fireworks and dumped rubbish are a nuisance. A third resident finds it "calming, accessible, close to the city, shops nearby, pleasant people." The area is densely built (2,710 addresses per km²) and has many single-person households. For more on the area, see neighbourhood De Noork.
For groceries, the Aldi is on your doorstep, and a Jumbo is a five-minute walk away. Primary schools are a couple of streets away, KBS de Wheele is about 4 km out, but there are closer options not listed. The train station is a ten-minute walk, making commutes easy. The municipality Hengelo keeps the streets swept regularly, as one resident noted.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Burbach Makelaars.

normal neighbourhood but very dependent on exactly where you are. the closer to the railway, the worse it gets. waste nuisance around the Aldi is excessive and really needs attention. speeding on the Mozartlaan, Paganinistraat, Oude Postweg, Jozef Haydnlaan is also significant. speeding is too easy and it's unclear what the maximum speed is. small gardens and green strips also need attention. where the streets are swept regularly (plus point), the gardens are maintained once a year. I feel safe enough, although it's not always great, loud foreign voices, groups of men and overdue maintenance on sometimes entire blocks.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves, but aren't distant. They can still have a chat here and there. There are many dog owners in the neighbourhood whose dogs play together a lot, which sometimes creates a cosy atmosphere. A downside is that there's a lot of fireworks set off in the evenings/nights. Also, a lot of rubbish is dumped by the plastic/paper containers, or entire households' furniture is thrown away.

About Mendelssohnstraat 26, Hengelo
The asking price is 26% below the average asking price in De Noork (€304,833), but that average is based on only three listings, including a much larger home. Given the 77 m² size and C label, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a flat of this type in Hengelo.
De Noork scores 6.53 out of 10 from three reviews. Residents describe it as decent but dependent on exact location, closer to the railway is noisier. There's speeding on main roads and waste issues near the Aldi. Others find it safe, calm, and convenient, with shops and the city centre close by.
The train station is 0.6 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach other cities without needing a car.
The Aldi is just 56 metres away, literally on your doorstep. A Jumbo is 589 metres (a five-minute walk), and an Albert Heijn is 912 metres away. So daily groceries are very convenient.
It has an energy label C, which is average for a flat from 1963. You can expect moderate heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 80% of homes have a label D or lower, so this one is slightly better than many.
With 77 m², it likely has two or three rooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
