About Schubertstraat 4, Elst
The asking price of €530,000 is slightly below the average sale price of €580,833 for similar homes sold recently in de Helster. However, those sales took an average of 124 days to sell, suggesting the market here is not overly fast. Given the energy label F and the need for potential upgrades, the price seems in line with what you might expect for a home that needs some modernisation.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have higher heating costs and may require significant insulation improvements, such as double glazing, cavity wall insulation, or a more efficient heating system. You should budget for these upgrades if you want to improve the energy performance.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km from the house, which is about a 15-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to Arnhem, Nijmegen, or other cities in the region.
There are several supermarkets within walking distance: Aldi at 741 m, Jumbo at 822 m, and Albert Heijn at 830 m. All are about a ten-minute walk, so daily shopping is easy without a car.
The nearest primary school is Katholieke Basisschool de Laarakker at 2.6 km, followed by De Expeditie at 2.8 km and Daltonschool Confetti at 2.8 km. These are a bit further away, so you may need to cycle or drive for school runs.
De Helster has a low crime rate, with only 31 total offences recorded in the latest data. The neighbourhood feels quiet and safe, with a mature population and many owner-occupied homes.
