Details of this home

The asking price of €245,000 is 34% below the neighbourhood average of €372,948. However, the apartment is also smaller than average: 51 m² versus 86 m². The average price per m² in the Professorenbuurt is €4,698, so this home works out at about €4,804 per m², which is slightly above the neighbourhood average. Given the compact size and energy label D, the price seems in line with the market.
The energy label is D. In the Professorenbuurt, 29.7% of homes have a label D or lower, while 26.6% have A+++. Label D means the home is not very energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. The building dates from 1935, which is typical for the area, 85.5% of homes were built before 1945.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. Groningen's main station connects to the rest of the country.
The Professorenbuurt has a mix of students, families and older residents. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including St. Franciscus at 186 m and Openbare Basisschool Karrepad at 451 m. Residents mention playgrounds and a safe feeling. However, the area is densely populated and can be busy, with some complaints about rubbish and bike parking.
The listing does not state the number of rooms. The floor area is 51 m², which typically suggests a one-bedroom or small two-bedroom layout, but this is not confirmed. You would need to check the floor plan or view the property.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it is unclear if there is any private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has several small parks within a couple of streets away.
In the Professorenbuurt, sold homes took an average of 25 days to sell. That is relatively quick, indicating a healthy demand. With 63 apartments currently for sale, there is a reasonable choice for buyers.
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.
