’t Wilbert, Hengelo
NeighbourhoodThis 1938 semi-detached house on Van Ostadestraat sits in a lively part of Hengelo. With 102 m² of living space on a 234 m² plot, it's compact but has a garden and plenty of potential. The energy label F means heating costs will be noticeable. Priced at €398,000, it's on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €349,955 for sold homes, but the supply of semi-detached houses in Hengelo is limited.
't Wilbert is a dense urban area with 2,910 residents, mostly families and couples. Reviews are mixed: one resident says "Our street was once a beautiful street. But ruined completely by certain people. And you don't get any help. Such a shame." Another calls it "Just cosy" but notes "there's no doing anything with the neighbours." A third finds it "Cosy" because "living close to the city is within walking distance." Based on three reviews, the average score is 6.92. The neighbourhood 't Wilbert has a high proportion of owner-occupied homes (55%) and mostly pre-war housing.
For groceries, you have Aldi and Albert Heijn both just around the corner. A couple of streets away, there's another Albert Heijn and a Jumbo. Schools are a ten-minute walk away: KBS de Wheele for primary and Het Twickel College Borne for secondary. The municipality Hengelo maintains the area, though residents feel maintenance could be better.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Des Huizes, Funda, and Pararius. The agent is Des Huizes.

Our street was once a beautiful street. But ruined completely by certain people. And you don't get any help. Such a shame. The neighbourhood is also not well maintained by the municipality; nowadays this is only for the better neighbourhoods where people with money live. And the housing association washes its hands of many things. The ordinary person can only get flats anymore. Where has our Hengelo gone, where I always lived so happily! What could be improved is the rubbish situation, that houses are better maintained, overall maintenance of streets, etc. And that there aren't deep trenches next to streets, life-threatening. Even if you call them, they change nothing. Fences around playgrounds, making unsafe streets safe again. And that they don't charge mega rent prices for small old houses and that new houses are also built for social renters. And that the municipality and police really intervene when necessary. But something has to happen first. Sad, all of it! Such a shame!

About van Ostadestraat 9, Hengelo
The asking price is €398,000, which is above the average sold price of €349,955 in 't Wilbert. However, the home is a semi-detached house with a garden, and only four homes are currently for sale in the neighbourhood. The price per m² (€3,902) is higher than the neighbourhood average of €2,830, partly because this home is smaller than the typical 159 m².
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war house. You should budget for significant energy bills.
't Wilbert is a densely populated urban area with a mix of families and singles. Residents have mixed feelings: some appreciate the proximity to the city centre, while others criticise maintenance and social issues. The neighbourhood has a high crime rate (86 incidents) and a below-average review score of 6.92. It's a lively area with shops and schools within walking distance.
Primary school KBS de Wheele is about a ten-minute walk away. For secondary education, Het Twickel College Borne is also within walking distance. There are several other schools within a few kilometres, including Beekpark and Basisschool de Vonder.
