Where is it worth buying a house in Siemianowice Śląskie?
The average price of a house in Siemianowice Śląskie is 540 thousand PLN, and the average area of a property is about 218 m2. Most house listings in the town are in three districts: Michałkowice, Przełajka and Bytków.
Michałkowice is the oldest district of the town, with a residential, industrial and agricultural character. Adverts from this part of Siemianowice Śląskie come mainly from the secondary market. Houses with an average area of 100 m2 can be bought in this district from as little as 2,500 PLN/m2. Properties with an area larger than 150 m2 are much more expensive, as their prices start at 4,000 PLN/m2.
Another place to look for a house is Przełajka. The smallest district of Siemianowice Śląskie has the most listings of properties built within the last two years. Most of the properties in Siemianowice are sold at a price of 4,000 PLN/m2, and their average area is 150 m2. However, you can also find adverts in which 1 m2 of a house on the primary market costs 2000-2,500 PLN.
In Bytków, a large residential district, you can find the most listings of older, cheap houses. Buildings dating from the 1940s are the least valuable. Their price is about 1,000 PLN/m2. Properties built in the 1980s are twice as expensive. There are very few listings of houses from the last decade, but they are the most expensive, with 1 m2 costing from 4000 to 5,000 PLN.

House or plot in Siemianowice Śląskie?
The choice of a house or a plot in Siemianowice Śląskie depends above all on the location. In the Przełajka district the best choice is to build your own property, which cannot be said of Bytków, although a lot also depends on your expectations, as the cheapest houses, which are at the same time the oldest, often require additional investment.
