Rivierenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 1935 apartment on Jan Gijzenkade brings a sense of history to your daily life. With 122 m² of space, it's generously sized for a flat from that era. The energy label E means heating costs will be noticeable, but the solid construction and high ceilings are typical of the period. At €450,000, the price is in line with the market for apartments in Haarlem.
The neighbourhood Rivierenbuurt scores a 7.5 from its residents. One resident says: "It's a cosy neighbourhood, but also convenient." The area is densely built (3,167 addresses per km²) and very urban, with a mix of families and singles. Most homes are owner-occupied (70%), and three-quarters are single-family houses, so this apartment stands out in the street scene.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is on your doorstep. A couple of streets away, you'll find PLUS and Albert Heijn for a bigger shop. The Koningin Emmaschool is just around the corner, and Het Schoter secondary school is a five-minute walk. The municipality Haarlem keeps the neighbourhood well-served with a GP and restaurant both within a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Hoekstra en Van Eck Haarlem.

About Jan Gijzenkade 179A, Haarlem
At 122 m², that works out to about €3,689 per m². Without specific neighbourhood sale prices in the data, it's hard to say exactly, but for a pre-war apartment of this size in Haarlem, it seems in line with what you'd expect. The energy label E is a factor to consider for running costs.
Rivierenbuurt is described by a resident as 'cosy but convenient'. It's a very urban area with a high density of addresses. The population is mixed: about a third are families with children, a third are couples without kids, and singles make up a smaller share. Most homes are owner-occupied, and the area feels established.
The nearest train station is 3 km away, which is about a 10-minute cycle or a short bus ride. That's a bit far for a daily walk, but fine if you have a bike or use public transport.
Dekamarkt is just 190 metres away, so you can pop out for groceries in a minute. Within a 10-minute walk you'll find PLUS, Albert Heijn, and another Dekamarkt. For daily shopping, you're well covered.
The Koningin Emmaschool primary school is 221 metres away, and the St. Bavo primary school is 317 metres. For secondary education, Het Schoter is 251 metres from the door. All are within easy walking distance.
Label E is on the lower end of the scale, so the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. The apartment was built in 1935, so insulation and glazing may be original or partially upgraded.
