Schildersbuurt, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Hoendiepskade sits in the thick of things, with a Coop supermarket just around the corner and the city's buzz a short stroll away. At 88 m² it's compact but well-proportioned, and with a price of €385,000 it sits well below the neighbourhood average, partly because it's smaller than many homes here. For context, apartments in Groningen vary widely in size and price.

Another calls it "incredibly cosy fresh neighbourhood" where you notice many young people but there's "relatively little nuisance." The neighbourhood Schildersbuurt has a strong urban feel, with a very high address density.
For daily shopping, the Coop is on your doorstep, and an Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away.

Auto-translated to English by AIIncredibly cosy fresh neighbourhood. You notice that many young people live here but there is relatively little nuisance. Although there are nice bars in the area. Also, at New Year's there is a nice tradition of making a fire on the roundabout, very cosy!!

About Hoendiepskade 3, Groningen
The asking price is €385,000, which is 45% below the average asking price in the Schildersbuurt (€696,800). However, this apartment is also 38% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 142 m².
