Centrum, Oost Gelre
NeighbourhoodThis 182 m² apartment on Molendijk sits right in the centre of Lichtenvoorde, a town with a lively market square and a friendly, village feel. The building dates from 1956 and has an E energy label, so heating costs are something to budget for. At €398,000, the price is on the high side compared to other apartments in Oost Gelre, but the generous floor area is a clear plus.
The neighbourhood Centrum is compact and home to about 940 people. It's a place where many live alone, 325 one-person households, and the average household size is just 1.6. The age profile is skewed towards 65-plus, who make up 425 of the residents. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture comes from the data alone.
Daily errands couldn't be easier: Lidl and Aldi are both just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. For families, Basisschool De Leeuw is a five-minute walk, and secondary school Marianum is about the same distance. A park or public garden is also just around the corner, so there's green space nearby. The municipality Oost Gelre covers a wider area with plenty of countryside to explore.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Gierkink Makelaars and also appears on Pararius, so it's available through several channels.

About Molendijk 10, Lichtenvoorde
At 182 m², the price per square metre is around €2,187. That's on the high side compared to other apartments in Oost Gelre, but the size is well above average for the area. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the central location.
An E label means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a modern, well-insulated home. The building is from 1956, so improvements like double glazing or better insulation could help, but that would be an investment.
The nearest train station is 4.1 km away. That's about a ten-minute drive or a 50-minute walk. For daily commuting by train, you'd likely need a car or bike to get to the station.
Lidl and Aldi are both just 86 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Albert Heijn and Jumbo are about 300 metres away, so you have four supermarkets within a five-minute walk. That's very convenient for daily shopping.
The CBS recorded 56 total crimes in the Centrum neighbourhood. That's a moderate number for a town centre.
Basisschool De Leeuw is 427 metres away (about a five-minute walk), and secondary school Marianum is 518 metres away. There are also several special education schools within a kilometre. So families with school-age children have good options nearby.
