With 104 m² and an energy label C, it's a solid home for someone who wants character without the full renovation project. At €350,000, the price is in line with the market, the median in the neighbourhood is €360,000, and apartments in Groningen tend to be keenly priced.
The Oranjebuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a village feel. One resident says: "It's very quiet, yet there's always something going on. Everything you need is within walking distance." Another adds: "Despite the population density, quiet and pleasant." A third notes that the sense of community is strong, with a neighbourhood association and a pond with a playground. The area is mostly pre-war (75% built before 1945) and has a mix of singles and families. The neighbourhood Oranjebuurt is one of Groningen's most sought-after spots.
For daily shopping, Jumbo is on your doorstep, and SPAR, PLUS and Albert Heijn are all within a ten-minute walk.

Very good · 5 residents
It's the first time I live in the city, so it took some getting used to, but the neighbourhood immediately feels like coming home. It's very quiet, yet there's always something going on. Everything you need is within walking distance, so you never have to stress if you need something. A nice little park right on your doorstep, where you can sit comfortably and enjoyably (especially in summer).

Auto-translated to English by AIIt was a very social neighbourhood. People looked out for and helped each other. That hasn't completely disappeared, but due to many new residents who prefer to keep to themselves, the sense of community is diminishing. However, we do have a neighbourhood association including a building with many connecting activities for everyone. A beautiful pond with a playground that are well maintained and heavily used. People here generally have a green heart, so you won't find any tiled paradises like in Vinkhuizen, allowing animals such as hedgehogs, birds, and insects to live here too. Orange neighbourhood is my neighbourhood!!!
