Geneesherenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Edward Jennerstraat sits in the leafy Geneesherenbuurt, a part of Haarlem where the streets are lined with mature trees and there's plenty of parking. At 64 m² it's compact but well laid out, with an energy label B, efficient for a 1969 build. The asking price of €435,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €426,000 for sold homes, but the supply of apartments in Haarlem is limited, so it's a keenly priced option for the area.
Two residents have reviewed the area, giving it an average score of 6.62. One describes it as "a green residential area with plenty of space" and notes that "all amenities are within walking distance, close to shops, hospital, doctor and pharmacy. Child-friendly neighbourhood, little traffic." The other is less positive, calling it "not desirable" and mentioning noise, litter, and feeling unsafe at night. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and singles, with average household sizes around 2.3. It's a very urban area with a high density of addresses, so you're never far from the bustle.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn and Lidl are both just around the corner, and Dekamarkt is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including IKC Valeo and OBS de Globe. The nearest secondary school is about a ten-minute walk away. A park or public garden is also just around the corner, so green space is never far.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Overspaern Makelaardij, Funda, Pararius and Huispedia.

Auto-translated to English by AIVery noisy. Unhelpful and unfriendly. I don't feel safe walking my dog in the dark. Many noisy young people in cars and on motorbikes. Often very dirty with lots of rubbish on the street. More enforcement. Clean the area more often. Encourage residents to be more community-minded. Organise social events in the neighbourhood.

About Edward Jennerstraat 328A, Haarlem
The asking price of €435,000 is slightly above the average sale price of €426,000 for homes sold recently in the Geneesherenbuurt. However, the flat is smaller than the neighbourhood average (64 m² vs 108 m²), so the price per square metre is higher. Given the limited supply of apartments in Haarlem, the price is in line with the market.
The flat has energy label B, which is good for a building from 1969. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. All homes for sale in this neighbourhood have label A+ or better, so this one is slightly less efficient than the local average.
Opinions are mixed. One resident calls it child-friendly with little traffic, while another mentions noise and feeling unsafe at night. The area has many families with children, and there are several primary schools within walking distance. The park nearby is a plus for outdoor play.
Supermarkets like Albert Heijn and Lidl are just around the corner, and a pharmacy, doctor, and hospital are also close by. Primary schools are within a five-minute walk, and a park is just around the corner. For secondary education, you'd need to walk about ten minutes.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus, or car to reach it. The area is well served by roads, but the station itself is a bit of a trek.
Residents mention sufficient parking in the streets. The neighbourhood has plenty of space, so finding a spot should not be a problem. There is no mention of a private parking spot or garage in the listing.
