De Noork, Hengelo
NeighbourhoodThis 1927 semi-detached house on Oude Postweg sits in a part of Hengelo where the streets have character and the gardens are compact. With 97 m² of living space and a 200 m² plot, it's a home that feels solidly built but needs some modernisation, the E label tells you heating costs will be noticeable. At €300,000, the asking price is in line with the three other homes currently for sale in De Noork, where the average is €304,833. For context, semi-detached houses in Hengelo typically sell for around that figure.
De Noork is a neighbourhood where opinions vary. One resident calls it a 'decent neighbourhood' but points out that 'the closer to the railway, the worse it gets' and mentions 'waste nuisance around the Aldi' and 'speeding on the Mozartlaan, Paganinistraat, Oude Postweg, Jozef Haydnlaan'. Another says it's 'safe but boring', with people keeping to themselves but still friendly, and notes 'a lot of fireworks set off in the evenings/nights' and rubbish dumped by the plastic containers. A third review sums it up as 'plenty within reach and calming'. Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 6.53 out of 10. The area is densely built (2,710 addresses per km²) and has a mix of single-family homes (49%) and apartments, with 34% owner-occupied. For more on the area, see neighbourhood De Noork.
For your morning bread, the Aldi is just around the corner, and the Jumbo is a five-minute walk away. There's also an Albert Heijn about a ten-minute walk. Schools are a bit further: the nearest primary, KBS de Wheele, is a couple of streets away, and the closest secondary, Het Twickel College Borne, is about a ten-minute walk. The train station is a five-minute walk, and a park or garden is just around the corner. For more on the wider area, see municipality Hengelo.

normal neighbourhood but very dependent on exactly where you are. the closer to the railway, the worse it gets. waste nuisance around the Aldi is excessive and really needs attention. speeding on the Mozartlaan, Paganinistraat, Oude Postweg, Jozef Haydnlaan is also significant. speeding is too easy and it's unclear what the maximum speed is. small gardens and green strips also need attention. where the streets are swept regularly (plus point), the gardens are maintained once a year. I feel safe enough, although it's not always great, loud foreign voices, groups of men and overdue maintenance on sometimes entire blocks.
Auto-translated to English by AIPeople keep to themselves, but aren't distant. They can still have a chat here and there. There are many dog owners in the neighbourhood whose dogs play together a lot, which sometimes creates a cosy atmosphere. A downside is that there's a lot of fireworks set off in the evenings/nights. Also, a lot of rubbish is dumped by the plastic/paper containers, or entire households' furniture is thrown away.

About Oude Postweg 97, Hengelo
The asking price of €300,000 is slightly below the average of €304,833 for homes currently for sale in De Noork, and well below the median of €350,000. Recently sold homes in the neighbourhood went for an average of €325,636, so the price seems reasonable for a semi-detached house that needs some updating.
The home has an energy label E, which means it's not very efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In De Noork, 80% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Residents describe it as a decent but mixed area. Positives include feeling safe, shops nearby, and a calming atmosphere. Negatives are speeding on some streets, waste dumping, and fireworks at night. The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses and a mix of families and singles.
The Aldi is just around the corner (342 m), and the Jumbo is a five-minute walk (779 m). The nearest primary school is KBS de Wheele, about 4 km away, and the closest secondary is Het Twickel College Borne, also about 4 km. There are several other schools within 5 km.
The train station is 0.6 km away, which is about a five-minute walk. This makes commuting by train quite convenient.
The plot is 200 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden. The neighbourhood reviews mention small gardens, so it's likely the outdoor space is modest.
