About Newtonstraat 91, Nijmegen
The asking price is 26% below the average asking price in Grootstal (€502,531) and also under the median of €409,250. Given the 97 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,809 per m², while the neighbourhood average is €4,481 per m². So it is priced on the low side compared to other homes currently for sale. However, the energy label D may mean higher running costs than a more efficient home.
The energy label is D. That is below the average for homes for sale in Grootstal, where over 50% have label A or better. A D label means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a modern, well-insulated home. It may be worth budgeting for future improvements.
The nearest train station is 3.0 km away. That is about a 10-minute cycle or a short bus ride. The station connects to the rest of Nijmegen and beyond.
There are several schools within walking distance. Basisschool De Kleine Wereld is just 168 m away, and Hidaya (Islamic primary) is 709 m. For secondary education, Kandinsky College is 465 m away, and Yuverta vmbo is about 1 km. So children can walk or cycle to school easily.
Jumbo is the closest supermarket, at 407 m, a five-minute walk. Aldi is 889 m away, and Lidl is 1.2 km. So daily grocery shopping is convenient on foot or by bike.
