About Paul Krugerstraat 43, Hengelo
The asking price of €1,250,000 is 126% above the average asking price in Binnenstad-Oost (€553,900) and is the highest of the ten homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood. However, this house is also 36% larger than the average (159 m² vs 117 m²) and sits on a very large plot of 1093 m². Detached houses of this size are rare in the area, so the price reflects its uniqueness.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient and heating costs are likely to be high. The house was built in 1919, so it may lack modern insulation.
