Details of this home
Hortensialaan 64A, Groningen
Good · 2 residents
Everyone is helpful to each other. We are there for each other and if someone needs something, there are more than enough people willing to help. On the other hand, for families it is so difficult to get a family home with a small garden and own front door. There are far too few terraced houses that consist of just an average single-family home with 2 floors. That makes expanding the family terribly difficult. In terms of education, unfortunately I don't hear many good things within my circle of acquaintances. More attention should be paid to the interaction between teacher and student. And communication with parents could definitely be better. My daughter attends a playgroup and so far I only have good things to say about that, fortunately. Furthermore, one-on-one attention could help students. Moreover, I think that students in secondary schools should learn about the Second World War. It is an important part of our history.

About Hortensialaan 64A, Groningen
The asking price of €295,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €250,000 and the average of €260,870.

The price per square metre works out to about €2,731, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,185 per m². So while the total price is higher, you are getting significantly more space for your money.
Homes in the Bloemenbuurt sell relatively quickly. In the past period, 62 homes were sold, with an average time on the market of just 16 days. This suggests a fast-moving market where well-priced homes don't stay available for long.

The Bloemenbuurt has a mix of residents, but families may find it challenging. One resident noted that it is difficult to find a family home with a garden and own front door. The area has many one-person households (1,205 out of 1,850 households) and only 325 households with children. Schools are nearby, but the same resident mentioned mixed experiences with education quality.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away from the apartment. That is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. The station provides connections to the wider region.
The closest supermarket is Jumbo at 396 metres, just a few minutes' walk. Other options include an AH to go at 747 metres, Albert Heijn at 927 metres, and Lidl at 994 metres. So you have several choices within a ten-minute walk.
The listing does not mention a garden or any outdoor space. The apartment is on the first floor (Hortensialaan 64A), so it likely does not have a private garden. However, the neighbourhood has a park or public garden just 0.2 km away, so green space is nearby.
