Frequently asked questions
About Multatulistraat 141, Groningen
Was €225,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €225,000 was 21% below the average asking price in De Wijert (€283,371) and also below the median of €249,000. Given that homes in the neighbourhood sell on average in 20 days, this price was keen. However, the energy label D was less efficient than much of the current stock, so factor in potential heating costs.
What is the neighbourhood like?
De Wijert scores an 8.13 out of 10 from residents. They describe it as green, cosy, and well-equipped with shops and schools. One resident mentions it's poorly connected to public transport for reaching the north side of the city, but otherwise safe and pleasant. The area has a mix of ages, with many young adults and a high proportion of single-person households.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood has bus connections, but some residents feel public transport could be better for longer journeys across the city.
What shops and schools are nearby?
Albert Heijn and Lidl are both within 250 metres, and Jumbo is about 300 metres away. For schools, secondary school De Bolster is just over 100 metres away, primary school De Tamarisk is 300 metres, and the Montessori Vaklyceum is 364 metres. Everything you need for daily errands is within a few minutes' walk.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The apartment has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, 23.3% of homes have label D or lower, while 40% have label C. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a more modern property. It's worth considering improvements like insulation or double glazing.
How quickly do homes sell in De Wijert?
Homes in De Wijert sell on average in 20 days, which is relatively fast. This suggests a healthy demand. The apartment at Multatulistraat 141 was priced below the neighbourhood average, so it might attract interest quickly.
