Over het Lange Water, Arnhem
NeighbourhoodThis 102 m² apartment on Wildenborglaan in Arnhem's Over het Lange Water neighbourhood is a solid canvas for someone who wants to put their own stamp on a home. Built in 1969, it has generous proportions that are hard to find at this price point. The energy label G means heating costs will be a real factor, and most other apartments for sale in the neighbourhood have a better label. At €279,000, the price is in line with the market, comparable to the median of €275,000 for the area. For context, that's a market-rate price per m² compared to other apartments in Arnhem.
Over het Lange Water is a post-war neighbourhood with a mix of low-rise flats and family homes. It's green, a park is just a couple of streets away, and daily essentials are close by. But the area has its downsides: based on one resident review, the park feels unsafe in the evening, and there's occasional vandalism and dealing in the car park. The same resident notes that shops are plentiful and public transport is easy. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of single-person households (around a third) and a relatively young population. It's a practical, no-frills area with a strong sense of community among those who live here. For more on the area, see the Over het Lange Water neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, the SPAR express is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn and Aldi are a ten-minute walk away. Primary schools are within easy reach: Ibn-i Sina and De Parkschool are both a five-minute walk. For secondary education, Mariëndael and Briant College are a short stroll further. The park is on your doorstep, ideal for a quick walk or letting the kids run around. The train station is a twenty-minute walk, and the city centre is a short bus ride away. All in all, it's a convenient spot for daily life. The municipality of Arnhem offers plenty of cultural and recreational options too.
At the time of writing, the home is available through several channels, including Spitman Makelaars | Qualis and Funda. The agent has published full details, so you can get a clear picture of what's on offer.

There's not much to do except a park that's unsafe in the evening. Sometimes cars are vandalised and there's dealing in the car park, but there are plenty of shops, everything is close by and it's easy to reach by bus or train.

About Wildenborglaan 8-1, Arnhem
The asking price of €279,000 is close to the median of €275,000 for homes sold recently in Over het Lange Water. Given the 102 m² floor area, the price per m² is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,496, which makes it a reasonable asking price. However, the energy label G means higher running costs, which could be a negotiating point.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the apartment is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. Most other homes for sale in the neighbourhood have a better label, over 78% are label C or higher. You should expect significant energy bills, especially in winter.
