Groot Driene-Noord, Hengelo
NeighbourhoodThis semi-detached house on Zwavertsweg sits in a quiet part of Hengelo, with a floor area that is noticeably larger than most homes in the neighbourhood. At €415,000, the price is on the high side compared to the local average, but you are getting a home that is 29% bigger than the typical property here. For context, semi-detached houses in Hengelo tend to command a premium.
The neighbourhood Groot Driene-Noord is a neighbourhood with a mix of terraced houses and low-rise apartment blocks. One resident who has lived here their whole life describes it as middle-class: "There is a nice shopping centre, and I hope the vacant shops will be filled. Generally, there is little contact between neighbours, but you do get greeted. Currently, a lot is being done in the neighbourhood to make it even nicer and more pleasant." The area has a high proportion of single-person households and a relatively low percentage of owner-occupied homes (23%), which gives it a diverse feel.
For your daily shopping, Albert Heijn and Jumbo are both just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Primary schools are also within easy walking distance, with CBS de Zevenster and KBS de Wheele both about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Hengelo offers good connections: the train station is a ten-minute walk, and the meadows are a short stroll away for a breath of fresh air.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Zengerink Makelaardij B.V., Funda, and Vastgoed Nederland.

I think it falls under the middle class. There are mainly terraced houses and some - not too tall - apartment blocks. There is a nice shopping centre, and I hope the vacant shops will be filled. Generally, there is little contact between neighbours, but you do get greeted. Currently, a lot is being done in the neighbourhood to make it even nicer and more pleasant, which is good. A 10-minute walk from the meadows, so walking is also enjoyable here.

About Zwavertsweg 125, Hengelo
The asking price is above the neighbourhood average of €311,500, but this home is also larger than most: 138 m² versus 107 m² on average. The price per square metre works out at about €3,007, which is in line with the local €2,946 average. Given the size and the fact that only two homes are currently for sale in the area, the price reflects the extra space.
The home has energy label C. That means it is reasonably efficient but not top-of-the-line. You can expect moderate energy costs, though not as low as with an A or B label. In the neighbourhood, two-thirds of homes have label C and one-third label B, so this is typical for the area.
Groot Driene-Noord has a mix of households: about a third are families with children, a third are singles, and the rest are couples without kids. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the shopping centre covers daily needs. The resident review mentions that the area is being improved, which is a positive sign.
The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes commuting by rail quite convenient from this home.
The listing does not mention a garden, but the plot size is 234 m², which is generous for a semi-detached home.
