Velperweg-Noord, Arnhem
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. On the Hoflaan, a wide street lined with tall trees, you find a terraced house built in 1899, a time when houses were made to last.

The asking price of €682,500 is on the high side compared to the median of €550,000 in the area, but the size and character are exceptional. For context, terraced houses in Arnhem vary widely, and this one stands out.
