About Eleonoraweg 7, Nijmegen
At 285 m² on a 755 m² plot, the price works out to about €5,175 per m². That's on the high side for a detached house in Nijmegen, but the large plot and quiet location in Kwakkenberg justify a premium. There are no recent sales in the immediate area to compare directly, so it's worth checking how similar properties have sold in the wider neighbourhood.
Energy label D means the house is moderately efficient. Built in 1977, it likely has some insulation but not to modern standards. Heating costs will be higher than in a newer home, but you can improve the label over time with measures like cavity-wall insulation or double glazing. The exact energy consumption depends on usage and the current heating system.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's a reasonable distance for commuting, though you'll need a bike or car to get there quickly. Bus connections in the area are not detailed in the listing.
