Groot Driene-Noord, Hengelo
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Gerrit Achterbergstraat sits in a calm part of Hengelo, with a neat front garden and a private back garden. The 118 m² floor area is spread over three floors, giving you room to spread out. The energy label B means it's reasonably efficient, so heating bills shouldn't be a shock. Compared to other homes for sale in the neighbourhood, the asking price of €340,000 is on the high side, but then this is a larger-than-average house with a garden, which is rare in Groot Driene-Noord. For context, terraced houses in Hengelo sell for a wide range of prices, so it's worth seeing what you get for your money.

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 Gerrit Achterbergstraat 11, Hengelo
The asking price of €340,000 is above the average sold price of €334,000 for homes in Groot Driene-Noord, and well above the current average asking price of €311,500. However, this house is larger (118 m²) than the neighbourhood average (107 m²) and has a garden, which is not common in this area. So while it's on the high side, you're getting more space and outdoor area.
The energy label is B, which is quite good for a house built in 1971. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. In the neighbourhood, about a third of homes have label B, and the rest are label C, so this is above average for the area.
The train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach Hengelo's centre or connect to other cities like Enschede and Deventer.
