About Wethouder Nijhuisstraat 17, Enschede
The asking price of €350,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €324,500, but this home is larger (106 m² vs. 100 m² average) and has a garden. The price per m² is €3,302, slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,258. Given that only two homes are currently for sale in the area, the market is tight, and the price reflects the home's size and plot.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood. In Elferink-Heuwkamp, 50% of homes have label C and 12.5% have label A+. An E label means higher energy costs, especially for heating. You can expect to spend more on gas and electricity compared to a more efficient home.

The house was built in 1934, so it is nearly 90 years old. Homes from this era often have solid construction but may need updates. The energy label E suggests the insulation and heating system are not modern. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should factor in potential maintenance costs.

The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 106 m² of living space, a semi-detached home from 1934 typically has three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
