About Nieuwe Plein 7, Arnhem
The asking price of €475,000 is 39% above the average asking price in Stationsplein (€341,625) and is the highest of the eight homes currently for sale. However, the apartment is also exceptionally large at 661 m², 696% larger than the neighbourhood average of 83 m². On a price-per-m² basis, it works out to about €719/m², which is well below the neighbourhood average of €4,210/m². So while the total price is high, you are getting a lot of space for your money.
The neighbourhood is named after the station, and Arnhem's main train station is just 300 metres away, a five-minute walk. From there, you can reach other Dutch cities easily. The central location means most amenities are within walking distance.
The apartment has an energy label A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely modern heating systems. Your energy bills will be very low compared to older homes. In the neighbourhood, only 22.2% of homes have label A or better, so this is a standout feature.
Stationsplein has a total of 645 recorded crimes, which is relatively high for a city-centre area. This is typical for busy urban neighbourhoods with a lot of foot traffic and nightlife. However, the presence of the station and many shops means it is also well-lit and busy at most hours. As with any city centre, it pays to be aware of your surroundings.
The building was constructed in 1900, making it over a century old. However, the energy label A++ suggests it has been thoroughly modernised with top-tier insulation and heating. The exact condition of the interior is not detailed in the listing, but the combination of age and high energy efficiency indicates a careful renovation.
Yes, the nearest park or public garden is 500 metres away, about a ten-minute walk. Given the dense urban setting, green space is limited but accessible. The city centre also has several squares and the nearby Sonsbeek park is a bit further but worth the walk for a larger green area.
Primary schools within walking distance include Montessorischool De Binnenstad (818 m) and Jenaplan basisschool de Sterrenkring (999 m). For secondary education, Montessori College Arnhem is 983 metres away. There is also a special education school, De Opmaat, at 281 metres. The neighbourhood has a relatively low number of children, so schools are not overcrowded.
