About Varviksingel 144, Enschede
The asking price of €750,000 is 77% above the average asking price in Getfert (€422,667) and makes it the most expensive home currently for sale in the neighbourhood. However, it is also 44% larger than the average home in the area (171 m² vs 119 m²). Detached houses are rare in this central neighbourhood, so the price reflects both the size and the property type.
Energy label E means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. In Getfert, 42.1% of homes have label A or better, so this house is below the neighbourhood average in terms of efficiency. The exact costs depend on usage and energy prices.
Getfert is a very urban area with many singles and young adults. Only 435 of the 2,270 households have children, so it is not a typical family neighbourhood. However, there are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and the large garden of this house offers outdoor space for children.
The train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it convenient for commuting to other cities.
The nearest supermarket is Jumbo at 358 m, just around the corner. Albert Heijn, Nettorama, Lidl and Aldi are all within 900 m, so daily shopping is very convenient.
Getfert is a densely built urban neighbourhood right next to the city centre, so it is lively rather than quiet. The address density is very high, and there are many restaurants and shops nearby. The house itself is on a street with other homes, but the garden provides a private outdoor space.
The house was built in 1949, so it is over 70 years old. The energy label E suggests that it may need some modernisation to improve efficiency. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should expect some maintenance and updating.
