About Park de Kotten 188, Enschede
The asking price of €239,000 is about 49% below the average asking price in Bolhaar (€465,545). However, this apartment is also smaller than the neighbourhood average (82 m² vs 130 m²) and has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs. Compared to other apartments in Enschede, it's priced keenly, but the low energy label is a factor to weigh up.
Bolhaar is a quiet, residential area with a mix of families and older residents. Most homes were built between 1945 and 1970. The only resident review gives it a 9.13 out of 10, describing it as 'good, nothing more, safe house.' It's a calm pocket of Enschede, with parks nearby.
The train station is 2.1 km from the apartment, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride. That gives you direct connections to the rest of the Netherlands.
Lidl is 790 m away (a ten-minute walk), Jumbo is 862 m, and Albert Heijn and Dirk are both about 989 m. So daily shopping is easily done on foot.
There's a primary school (Ariënsschool) just 156 m away, and secondary schools like Het Stedelijk Kottenpark (274 m) and Kentalis Maatman College (296 m) are also very close. So school runs are short.
The apartment was built in 1964, and the energy label G indicates poor insulation and high energy consumption. This is common for homes of that era that haven't been upgraded. The asking price reflects this, but heating costs will be higher than in a more efficient home.
At 82 m², this apartment is 37% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 130 m². That's partly why the price is lower, smaller homes typically cost less per square metre too.
