Stationsbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Lange Herenstraat sits right in the thick of things, a busy, always-something-going-on neighbourhood where you're never far from a café or shop. At €350,000, the asking price is 65% below the neighbourhood average of €986,107, which is partly explained by the compact 60 m² floor area. For context, that's 60% smaller than the typical home in the area, so you're paying for location rather than square metres. If you're looking at apartments in Haarlem, this one is keenly priced for the street.
Stationsbuurt is a dense, urban pocket of Haarlem with a real buzz. Two residents give it an 8 out of 10. One calls it 'a cosier Amsterdam' and says: 'It's a nice and busy neighbourhood to live in, always something going on and always something to do.' Another describes it as 'very cosy, beautiful, everything is nearby.' The area is dominated by pre-war housing (71% built before 1945), and most homes are rented, only 43% are owner-occupied. It's a place of singles and young professionals, with an average household size of 1.6. The neighbourhood Stationsbuurt is one of Haarlem's most central.
Your morning bread run is a two-minute walk to the AH to go, and for a full shop the Albert Heijn is just around the corner. There's also an Aldi and a Dekamarkt within ten minutes on foot. For school runs, Openbare Basisschool De Kring is a couple of streets away, and the Willem van Oranjeschool is a five-minute walk. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk or a short cycle. The municipality Haarlem keeps the city centre well served, so you'll find restaurants, a park and a library all within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Hamer & Ran Garantiemakelaars.

I've been living here for a short while due to homelessness, but it's a nice and busy neighbourhood to live in, always something going on and always something to do. It's still a city so greenery and housing always remain a bit rubbish, but well, where in the Netherlands don't you have that?

About Lange Herenstraat 181, Haarlem
The asking price is 65% below the neighbourhood average of €986,107, but that average is skewed by much larger homes. The median price in Stationsbuurt is €562,500, and this apartment is 60 m², well below the average 151 m². Given the compact size and central location, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small apartment in this area.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not particularly energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In the neighbourhood, 56% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area's older housing stock.
Haarlem station is about 600 metres away, a five-minute walk. That makes it very convenient for commuting to Amsterdam or other cities.
