About Buurmansweg 46, Nijmegen
The asking price of €535,000 is 15% below the average asking price in Brakkenstein (€629,455) and matches the median price exactly. Given that the floor area is 28% smaller than the neighbourhood average (96 m² vs 134 m²), the price per m² works out to about €5,573, slightly above the neighbourhood average of €4,755 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but the smaller size means you're paying a premium per square metre.
The home has energy label D. This is a mid-range label; you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 27.3% of homes have label A, while 54.5% have label D or lower. So this home is on the less efficient side compared to the most efficient homes, but not unusual for a 1924 property.
