City, Enschede
NeighbourhoodThis listing on Molenstraat is for a top-floor apartment with an impressive A+++ energy label. The listing does not state the property type, floor area or year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €545,000, the price is above the neighbourhood average of €508,632, but the exceptional energy label and central location are clear assets. For a sense of what's available in the city, see homes in Enschede.

I've been living here for over 2 years now. Above a shop (our own shop). The neighbourhood is very friendly and tidy. Many new buildings are being built for students and first-time buyers! Everything is very close by, which is super convenient. There are many rubbish bins and also racks for deposit bottles. Great neighbourhood!!
Auto-translated to English by AIWe have a shop in the city centre... 83 years in the family. Over the years, the inner city has changed a lot! And not for the better. Demolition of beautiful buildings, many empty shop premises where unfortunately only the so-called "fortune seekers" often settle. The result is that they are empty again after a while! It is often made difficult for shopkeepers because of all the rules from the municipality. Rules thought up by gentlemen somewhere in a warm office who don't even seem to know the whole situation in the city themselves. Streets are closed, the car park in our neighbourhood closed, and that, as they say, for a higher purpose! No, it is certainly not a pleasure to be a small independent business in a city like Enschede where there is only room for large worthless chains like Primark, Sissy Boy XL and Action. No more appreciation for a decent butcher, fish or fruit shop. Very unfortunate but that is the reality in Enschede.
Auto-translated to English by AIEnschede is not really my place to live. There are a lot of junkies, people really live for themselves and there is no social cohesion. The house is easily accessible by public transport, as it is a 7-minute walk from the station. However, if you drive into the city centre by car, you can only do so between 7 and 11 o'clock. If you have your own car, you can't park it anywhere; it can be a 20-minute walk. School is very close, you have the UT, ROC van Twente and Saxion. Living in the city centre is convenient because everything is close by in terms of shops. There is also a lot of crime in the neighbourhood, young people walking around with weapons (apparently) and many junkies arguing over money and drugs. The houses in the centre are old and poorly insulated; you pay an arm and a leg for rent and gas, water, electricity. There is little greenery, although there is the city park.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is cosy. Enschede is a beautiful city and I live right in the centre. The station is nearby and there is also a lovely city park a 10-minute walk from my home. A downside is that in summer the city can smell quite unpleasant, and therefore my home too. If you open the windows, it stinks quite a bit. Furthermore, you also have to deal with the noise of the nightlife from Friday to Sunday.

About Molenstraat - appartement 9.9, Enschede
The asking price of €545,000 is above the average sale price in City (€508,632) and well above the median of €375,000. However, the home has an A+++ energy label, which is exceptional: only 17% of homes for sale in the neighbourhood have label A or better. Without knowing the floor area, it's hard to compare per square metre, but the price reflects the premium for a highly efficient home in the centre.
City is a very urban, dense neighbourhood with a mix of students, young professionals and long-term residents. Reviews are mixed: some praise the convenience and tidiness, while others mention crime and a lack of social cohesion. The area has many single-person households and few families. It's lively, with shops, restaurants and nightlife on your doorstep, but also has downsides like noise and limited parking.
The train station is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes it easy to reach other cities, though specific destinations are not listed.
There are several supermarkets within walking distance: Ekoplaza at 215 m, Jumbo at 286 m, and SPAR at 345 m. For a wider selection, Aldi is 615 m away. You'll have no trouble picking up groceries on foot.
Euverman & Nuyts Makelaars Enschede has published only the street and price on Funda.
The home has an A+++ energy label, the highest possible. This means very low energy costs and a modern, well-insulated home. In the neighbourhood, only 17% of homes for sale have label A or better, so this is a standout feature.
Parking in the city centre is limited. One resident mentions that driving into the centre is restricted between 7 and 11 o'clock, and parking can be a 20-minute walk away. The listing does not include a parking spot, so you would need to rely on public parking garages or street parking.
