De vijfhoek is a very pleasant neighbourhood to live in. Everyone knows each other and is kind to one another. Very occasionally some youngsters come down the street, but that's part of it. All the shops and restaurants are just around the corner, so you're there in no time. There isn't much nature unfortunately, but if you hop on your bike you'll soon reach a forest.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a very nice place to live. Everything is conveniently close by and I live right by the water, where I usually go paddleboarding in the summer. The parks are also very nice, I'm there quite often.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe needs of a cat or dog are done at my doorstep (which I can't do anything about) and it is never cleaned up.

About Lange Annastraat 33, Haarlem
The asking price is 41% below the neighbourhood average of €712,176, but the apartment is also 39% smaller than the average floor area of 109 m² in Vijfhoek. Given the smaller size and energy label E, the price is in line with what you would expect for a compact flat in this central location.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 33.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a 19th-century building.
Vijfhoek is a very central, lively neighbourhood in Haarlem's old town. Residents appreciate the close-knit community and the fact that shops and restaurants are within walking distance. It is densely populated with many young adults and singles. Some mention occasional noise from youngsters, but overall it is considered a cosy place to live.
You have a restaurant on your doorstep, and several supermarkets within a couple of streets away, including Albert Heijn and Jumbo. Primary and secondary schools are within a five-minute walk. The train station is 1.6 km away, so about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle.
The average price per m² in Vijfhoek is €7,123. For this apartment of 67 m² at €419,000, the price per m² comes to about €6,254, which is below the neighbourhood average. This reflects the smaller size and older energy label.
The asking price is below the neighbourhood average, and the location in central Haarlem is generally desirable. However, the energy label E may require future investment in insulation or heating upgrades. The neighbourhood has a mix of owner-occupied and rental properties, with 48% owner-occupied.
