Binnenstad-Zuid, Zwolle
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Bloemendalstraat sits in the lively Binnenstad-Zuid neighbourhood, where the city's historic centre is just a short walk away. Built in 1936, it has an E energy label, so heating costs are something to keep an eye on. At €350,000, the asking price is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €531,000, which is keen given the smaller floor area of 75 m². For context, that's 42% smaller than the typical home in the area. Compare with other apartments in Zwolle to see how it stacks up.
Binnenstad-Zuid is a compact, urban pocket with a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as 'An urban neighbourhood with a touch of green.' They note that many people know each other and that a neighbourhood day is organised occasionally. The area is reasonably safe, though weekend revellers pass through on their way out. Greenery exists but could be improved. Amenities are extensive thanks to the nearby shopping street, and a bus stop makes it easily accessible. The resident also points out that housing availability is limited and rental prices are high. This is the Binnenstad-Zuid neighbourhood in a nutshell.
For daily groceries, the SPAR is just around the corner, and the Coop is a couple of streets away. There's also an AH to go within a five-minute walk. For school runs, the Openbare Parkschool (primary) is a five-minute walk, and the Thomas a Kempis College (secondary) is similarly close. The neighbourhood is densely populated, with mostly single-person households, and the urban feel is unmistakable. All this sits within the municipality of Zwolle, which offers a full range of city amenities.

Very good · 1 resident
The neighbourhood is not very large, so many people know each other, and occasionally a neighbourhood day is organised. The area is reasonably safe, but at the weekend people pass through on their way to go out. There is greenery, but there is still room for improvement. There is no primary school or similar in the neighbourhood. The amenities are very extensive as the neighbourhood is located near the shopping street. There is a bus stop, so I would say it is easily accessible. Housing in the neighbourhood is not good; there are not many houses for sale, and the houses that are sometimes available to rent have high rental prices. Rents should be lower and more owner-occupied homes.

About Bloemendalstraat 19, Zwolle
The asking price of €350,000 is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €531,000, which makes it keen compared to other homes in Binnenstad-Zuid. However, the floor area of 75 m² is 42% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 130 m², so the price per square metre is actually higher than average. It's a competitive listing in a sought-after area, but the smaller size and E energy label are factors to weigh.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 36.8% of homes have label A and 5.3% have A+, so this apartment is on the less efficient side. The building dates from 1936, which is typical for the area, 72.7% of homes were built before 1945.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. There is also a bus stop in the neighbourhood, as noted by a resident. The area is easily accessible, and the city centre is within walking distance.
The SPAR supermarket is just 221 m away, and the Coop is 440 m. For primary education, the Openbare Parkschool is 520 m away, and the Thomas a Kempis College (secondary) is 539 m. There are also restaurants, a library, and a park within a short walk. The neighbourhood is very well served.
According to a resident, the area is reasonably safe, but at the weekend people pass through on their way to go out. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 742, but this figure covers all types of incidents. It's a central urban area, so some noise and activity are to be expected.
The neighbourhood has a high proportion of single-person households (1,120 out of 1,535 households) and a small number of families with children (120). The average household size is 1.4. Most homes are rented (74%), and the area is popular with young adults and students due to its central location.
In the neighbourhood, sold homes had an average listing time of 50 days. That's a reasonable period, suggesting a balanced market. With 19 homes currently for sale and 40 sold recently, there is turnover, but not an oversupply.
