About Dinkelstraat 18, Hengelo
The asking price of €485,000 is in line with what other twee-onder-een-kapwoningen in Hengelo sell for. The house has 164 m² of living space and a 263 m² plot, which is generous for the price. Given the quiet neighbourhood and the fact that most homes here are owner-occupied, it represents a solid market-rate offer.
The home has energy label C. That means it is reasonably efficient, you can expect moderate energy bills, but not as low as with an A or B label. The house was built in 1971, so some improvements like better insulation or double glazing may have been made over the years, but the label C suggests there is still room for upgrades.
The nearest train station is about 1 km away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. That makes commuting by rail quite convenient from this address.
