Midden, Gennep
NeighbourhoodThis 1922 terraced house on St.Norbertusstraat sits in the heart of Gennep, blending period charm with a practical layout.

Child-friendly and mostly quiet neighbourhood. The roads and rental homes have recently been renovated, which has significantly improved the appearance of the area. By introducing one-way streets, the number of cars in the neighbourhood is negligible.
Auto-translated to English by AII like living here. I only miss a train station. And there are often groups of teenagers in the neighbourhood who think they are above the law. But otherwise I am more than satisfied. We are close to the supermarket, the forest and the bus station!

About St.Norbertusstraat 5, Gennep
The asking price of €400,000 is 23% below the average asking price in Midden (€520,075) and also under the median of €479,450. However, the home has an energy label E, which means higher energy costs, and it dates from 1922, so some renovation may be needed. Compared to recent sales in the area (average €453,953), the price is competitive, but the lower energy efficiency is a factor to weigh.
The home has energy label E. In the neighbourhood, most available homes have better labels: 44.4% have label C, 33.3% have A, and 11.1% have A+. Label E means the home is less energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills. Improvements like insulation or double glazing could help, but the current label is a clear point to consider.
