Helpman, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis 1938 apartment on Coendersweg sits in the leafy, established neighbourhood of Helpman. With 56 m² of living space, it's a cosy home for someone who values character over square metres. The energy label is D, so heating costs are something to keep an eye on. At €265,000, the asking price is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €360,805, making it a keen entry into the Groningen housing market. For context, the average price per m² in Helpman is €3,895, so this apartment is priced competitively. Compare with other apartments in Groningen.
Helpman is a calm, residential area with a mix of pre-war and post-war housing. It's home to about 6,165 people, many of whom live alone (2,675 one-person households). The neighbourhood has a strong urban feel (address density 3,364 per km²), yet it's surprisingly green, with a park or public garden just a five-minute walk away. One resident sums it up: "Mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community." They also note that "there are three supermarkets within walking distance" and that "other amenities are also nearby." The only downside mentioned is the 15-minute bike ride to the city centre. This is the neighbourhood Helpman.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Poiesz is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within a few minutes' walk: Joseph Haydn-School and Groningse Schoolvereniging. Secondary education is also close by, with Zernike College just 152 m away. The neighbourhood has a high density of amenities, so most daily errands are on foot. The municipality Groningen offers a vibrant city life, but Helpman itself feels like a village within the city.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through several channels, including Anderz Makelaar Groningen, Vastgoed Nederland, and Funda.

I have almost no contact with neighbours. There are three supermarkets within walking distance. Other amenities are also nearby. To get to the city centre, it's always a 15-minute bike ride, which is a shame.
