Geleerdenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis spacious apartment on Louis Pasteurstraat 509 is part of a very recent development, completed in 2023. With an A+++ energy label, it's as efficient as they come. At €825,000, the asking price is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €711,500, which puts it on the high side, but then, this is a large, modern home in a sought-after part of Haarlem. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely, so this one stands out for its size and specs.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt is very good, but the only problem is accessibility. There is only bus 3 every half hour.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is nice and helpful, kind neighbours who look after each other. However, it is densely populated with apartments and there is often rubbish on the street. The loitering youths are not too bad and are somewhat present at the nearby Lidl, but fortunately that is a bit further away. We have the Rooie Pad behind us as green space, but there could certainly be more.
