Siemianowice Śląskie, a town in the centre of the Upper Silesian Industrial Region, neighbours Chorzów, Piekary Śląskie and Katowice. Convenient road links from Siemianowice Śląskie to other areas mean the town is counted among the places worth living in.

Where is it worth buying a house in Siemianowice Śląskie?

The average price of a house in Siemianowice Śląskie is PLN 540 thousand, and the average area of a property is about 218 square metres. Most house listings in the town are in three districts: Michałkowice, Przełajka and Bytków.

Starting with the first, Michałkowice is the oldest district of the town, of a typically residential-industrial-agricultural character. In the district we will find quite a few listings of both houses and plots, mainly on the secondary market. An undoubted plus is that property prices in Michałkowice are fairly varied, so it is easy to find a property to suit your budget.

For example, houses with an average area of 100 m² in Michałkowice can be bought for as little as PLN 2,500/m². Properties with an area of more than 150 m² are much more expensive, as their prices start from PLN 4000/m². Of course, the most important factor determining the price is the year the property was built.

Another place to look for a house is Przełajka. This smallest district has the largest number of listings for properties built after 2013. Besides these, we will also find a few primary market listings at a very favourable price of PLN 2000-2500/m². However, there are few such listings; most properties, with an average area of 150 m², are sold at PLN 4000/m².

The last district is Bytków, a large district of housing estates, where you can find the largest number of listings for older but cheap houses. Buildings dating from the 40s of the 20th century have the lowest value. Their price is about PLN 1000/m². Properties built in the 80s are twice as expensive. There are, however, very few listings for houses from the last decade, which are priced at PLN 4000-5000/m².

Where is it worth buying a plot of land in Siemianowice Śląskie?

The average price per square metre of a plot in Siemianowice Śląskie is PLN 176, with the average area of a building plot being 1550 square metres. And in which places is it worth looking for a plot?

If we want a location close to larger centres and city institutions, we can start our search in the Centre. Contrary to appearances, we will find quite a few plots there, not only investment plots but also building plots. It must be noted, however, that plot prices in the Centre are significantly above the average: the cheapest listings start at PLN 230/m², and prices can be as high as PLN 500/m².

As mentioned earlier, in Michałkowice, besides houses for sale, we will also find quite a few building plots on offer. It should also be noted that plots in those parts are much cheaper than those in the Centre. The price of a building plot in Michałkowice is around the average, that is PLN 180/m².

An alternative to Michałkowice is Przełajka, where a plot of a similar area can be bought even more cheaply. Incidentally, prices in Przełajka start from as little as PLN 100/m². The most expensive building land, on the other hand, are not in the Centre but in Bytków. Their average price is about PLN 300/m².
