Bakenes, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Bakenesserstraat is a classic Haarlem city home, built in 1880 and full of character. With 53 m² of living space, it's compact but well-proportioned, and the energy label D means you'll want to budget for heating. The asking price of €375,000 is 53% below the neighbourhood average of €803,520, which is striking, but the floor area is also 56% smaller than the typical 121 m² in the area. So it's a price that reflects the size, not a bargain. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely, and this one sits at the lower end of the market.
Bakenes is one of Haarlem's oldest neighbourhoods, with a very high density of addresses (5,666 per km²) and a strongly urban feel. It's a place of narrow streets, historic buildings and a mix of residents: lots of singles (775 one-person households) and a fair number of over-65s (390). Families with children are fewer (190), and the average household size is just 1.6. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS data paints a picture of a central, bustling area. The neighbourhood Bakenes is known for its proximity to the Grote Markt and the canals.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. There are two primary schools within a couple of streets: Openbare Basisschool De Kring and Veronica Jenaplanschool. For secondary education, Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Haarlem offers all the amenities you'd expect from a city centre, with restaurants, a library and a park all within walking distance.
