About Gentse Poort 3, Hulst
The asking price of €519,500 is above the neighbourhood average of €457,650 and the median of €349,950. However, this home is larger (196 m²) than the average (169 m²) and is a historic terraced house in the centre. The price per m² works out to about €2,650, which is below the neighbourhood average of €3,020 per m². So while the total price is high, the square-metre price is actually in line with the market.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. With a year of construction of 1890, the house likely has poor insulation, single glazing and an old heating system. Heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, only 25% of homes have a label D or lower, so this home is among the least efficient. Renovations such as insulation, double glazing or a new heating system could improve the label and reduce bills.
The Binnenstad neighbourhood has several supermarkets within walking distance: Jumbo at 372 m, Lidl at 412 m, Aldi at 439 m, and Albert Heijn at 561 m. There are also many shops in the city centre, as noted by residents. For daily groceries, you won't need a car.
Primary school St Willibrordus is just 184 m away, and School voor Speciaal Basisonderwijs De Brug is at 755 m. For secondary education, Praktijkschool Hulst (880 m) and Reynaertcollege (1,025 m) are within a ten-minute walk. There are 11 schools within 5 km.
The nearest train station is 46.4 km away, so this home is not convenient for train commuters. You would rely on a car or bus for longer journeys.
The neighbourhood recorded 96 total crimes in the latest data. With 1,535 residents, that works out to about 63 crimes per 1,000 inhabitants. This is a moderate level, typical for a city centre with shops and nightlife.
The home has 196 m² of floor space, which is generous, and a plot of 218 m². The neighbourhood has few families with children (115 out of 1,535 residents) and many single-person households.
