A studio in a stately street
This studio on Fransestraat in Nijmegen-Oost sits in a classic 1902 building with a C energy label.

For context, the average price per m² in the area was €4,520, so this home was priced keenly for a studio. Compare it with other studios in Nijmegen to see how it stacks up.
