About Hamburgerstraat 4, Groningen
The asking price of €219,500 is 42% below the average asking price in the Professorenbuurt (€377,635). However, the apartment is also smaller than average: 60 m² versus 85 m². Given the lower price and smaller size, the price per m² works out to about €3,658, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,004 per m². So it is priced keenly relative to the local market.
The energy label is F, which is one of the less efficient labels. This means you can expect higher energy costs compared to a home with a better label. In the Professorenbuurt, most homes for sale have a better energy label (only 28% have label D or lower). The label is an official registration from EP-Online and does not necessarily indicate the condition of the insulation or heating system.
The Professorenbuurt is a lively, mixed neighbourhood with many students, young adults, and families. Residents appreciate the cosy atmosphere, friendly neighbours, and plenty of amenities like schools, supermarkets, and parks. Some downsides mentioned are occasional litter and bike parking issues. The neighbourhood scores 7.57 out of 10 from 13 reviews.
The nearest supermarket is Lidl, about 405 metres away (a five-minute walk). Albert Heijn is about 555 metres away, also within a short walk. Several other supermarkets like PLUS and Jumbo are within 1 to 1.1 km.
The nearest primary school is St. Franciscus, about 218 metres away. Openbare Basisschool Karrepad is about 473 metres away, and IKC Borgman Oosterpark is 621 metres away. For secondary education, CSG Wessel Gansfort is about 767 metres away.
The distance to the nearest train station is 1.7 km, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride.
The apartment has 60 m² of living space, which is relatively compact. The neighbourhood has many families and children, but the apartment itself may be more suited to a single person or couple. The listing does not state the number of rooms, so you would need to check the layout with the agent.
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Very beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is quite cosy, though sometimes dirty because rubbish isn't put in the bins, so hygiene isn't always great. Lots of students, so sometimes there aren't enough places to park your bike. There isn't really a neighbourhood association or other communities that I'm part of. The area also has a primary school, a university of applied sciences, a nice park, several playgrounds and plenty of other amenities. Definitely a safe neighbourhood, but the houses are very old. All in all, a great place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIPleasant neighbours all around, cosy, many amenities in the area, fairly green, people greet each other or have a chat. Annual neighbourhood party. Easily accessible from both sides of the ring road. Safe feeling of living. Both students, elderly and families.
Auto-translated to English by AIA good neighbourhood, but a lot of waste from the Orientals on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice neighbourhood! Often there is rubbish from the shop in the street. Otherwise, it's a fun neighbourhood!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause of the many 'students' and junkies in my complex, I don't feel very safe.. also had a break-in at my previous home and now have very unpleasant neighbours. The housing association does nothing about it
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's quite a nice neighbourhood
Auto-translated to English by AIThe vast majority is beautiful 1930s architecture, mostly well-maintained buildings. You'll find a diverse crowd here. Students, families and first-time buyers live happily together in this neighbourhood full of amenities (supermarkets, playgrounds, gyms, parks).

Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but I'm especially a fan of the green surroundings and walking routes. I was also surprised that people from my block like to chat and know each other reasonably well. On the street I don't always feel very safe, because there are relatively many people with (visible) mental health and/or drug problems. Yet after living here for a short time, I noticed that I need to worry less than I thought and most people are very friendly here. I am less of a fan of the amenities here; only the Plus supermarket is in the neighbourhood, but that's not necessarily very affordable for everyone. Furthermore, there isn't much within walking distance. I also notice that, for example, on my street there is quite a lot of litter (now also a lot of old fireworks) and the gardens are generally not maintained. This could certainly be improved (:
Auto-translated to English by AInice park, close to the centre, two supermarkets nearby, also two hairdressers, community centre with many activities and cheap lunch/dinner around the corner. Second-hand clothing shop, flower shop and a few other shops, including two cafeterias, a pizza delivery, in short plenty of amenities. And also just over 5 minutes by bike from the centre.
