Altrade, Nijmegen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Van Somerenstraat sits in lively Altrade, a stone's throw from Nijmegen's centre. At 56 m² it's compact, but the high ceilings and classic 1903 bones give it character. The asking price of €365,000 is noticeably below the neighbourhood average, partly because the home is smaller than many in the area. For context, apartments in Nijmegen vary widely in size and price.
Altrade is a busy but cosy neighbourhood, according to residents. One says: "Nice neighbourhood, close to the city centre. Lots of amenities, variety of residents." Another describes it as "quiet and safe" with "very nice neighbours who often have a friendly chat." The area scores an 8.6 out of 10 across four reviews. It's densely populated, mostly one-person households, and very urban, with everything you need within walking distance. The neighbourhood Altrade is popular with students and young professionals.
Your daily bread comes from Albert Heijn, just around the corner, or PLUS a couple of streets away. For school runs, Montessorischool Nijmegen-Oost is a five-minute walk, and Karel de Grote College is similarly close. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the city centre is even closer. The municipality Nijmegen keeps the area well-maintained, though residents note some litter now and then.
