Bakenes, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Jansstraat sits in the lively centre of Haarlem, where the streets hum with cafés, shops and daily life. At 59 m² it is compact, but the high ceilings and classic proportions give it a spacious feel. The price of €395,000 is notably lower than the neighbourhood average of €803,520, partly because the home is smaller than the typical Bakenes flat.

Bakenes is one of Haarlem's oldest neighbourhoods, packed with monumental buildings and narrow lanes. It is densely populated, over 5,600 addresses per km², and most homes date from before 1945. The area attracts a mix of students, young professionals and older residents; nearly half of households are single-person. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the figures speak for themselves: a very urban setting with everything within walking distance.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and AH to go is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, Openbare Basisschool De Kring and IKC De Argonauten, are a five-minute walk and a ten-minute walk respectively. The Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem, a secondary school, is also a five-minute walk. The municipality Haarlem offers a compact city centre where most amenities are within easy reach.

About Jansstraat 9, Haarlem
The asking price is €395,000, which is 51% below the average asking price in Bakenes (€803,520). However, this apartment is also 51% smaller than the neighbourhood average (59 m² vs 121 m²). On a per-square-metre basis, the price is about €6,695, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €7,204 per m². So the price is in line with the market given the size.
The energy label is C. That means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but it is not as efficient as modern A or B labels. You can expect moderate energy costs. In Bakenes, about 38% of homes have label A, 10% label B, and 21% label C, so this home sits around the middle of the pack.
The nearest train station is 0.8 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach Amsterdam, Schiphol or other cities without needing a car.
You have an Albert Heijn just 182 metres away, on your doorstep. There is also an AH to go at 411 metres and a Dekamarkt at 586 metres. For restaurants, the nearest is 0.2 km away, so plenty of options for eating out.
At the time of writing, there are 25 homes for sale in Bakenes, with prices ranging from €250,000 to €2,495,000. The median price is €500,000, so this apartment is below the median, reflecting its smaller size.
With 59 m² and one bedroom (typical for an apartment of this size), it is more suited to a single person or a couple. The neighbourhood has few families with children (only 190 out of 1,275 households), and most homes are apartments. Schools are nearby, but the space may be tight for a family.
