About Ruisdaelstraat 52, Nijmegen
The asking price of €500,000 is very close to the average sale price in Altrade (€504,625) and slightly above the median of €435,000. Given that this apartment is 35% larger than the neighbourhood average (155 m² vs 115 m²), the price per square metre (€3,226) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €4,911 per m². So it's priced competitively for its size.
The apartment has energy label E. This means it's not very energy-efficient, you can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In Altrade, 52% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. The home was built in 1926, so it likely has single glazing and less insulation than newer builds.
