Professorenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 91 m² apartment on Professor Van Der Scheerstraat sits in a quiet, leafy part of Haarlem. Built in 1970, it has an energy label C, so heating costs are moderate. At €315,000, the price is noticeably below the neighbourhood average of €550,000, partly because this is the only apartment currently for sale in the area. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely in price, but this one is keenly priced for its size.
The neighbourhood Professorenbuurt is a compact, residential neighbourhood with around 1,330 residents. It's a mix of families and couples, about 235 households have children, and the average household size is 2.4. The area feels calm and green, with a park or public garden just a five-minute walk away. There are no resident reviews available, but the CBS data shows a low crime rate (40 total offences) and a very high density of addresses (2,810 per km²), typical of a strongly urban setting. Most homes here are pre-1970, and all sold homes in the past period had energy label A, so this C-label apartment is a bit less efficient than the local norm.
For your morning bread run, Lidl is just around the corner, and Vomar, Dekamarkt and Albert Heijn are all within a couple of streets away. Primary schools are close: Islamitische Basisschool Al Ikhlaas is a couple of minutes' walk, and RKBS Don Bosco is just a few streets further. The municipality Haarlem offers good amenities, though the nearest train station is 4.4 km away, so you'll rely on a bike or bus for longer trips.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Koops Makelaardij Haarlem B.V. and Funda.

About Professor Van Der Scheerstraat 203A, Haarlem
At €315,000 for 91 m², that works out to about €3,462 per m². The neighbourhood average for sold apartments is €5,556 per m², so this is significantly below that. However, only one apartment is currently for sale, and the two most recent sales averaged €510,000. Given the energy label C and 1970 construction, the price looks keen compared to the local market.
Professorenbuurt is a quiet, family-oriented area with a mix of ages. It has a high density of addresses (2,810 per km²), so it feels urban but not hectic. There's a park within a five-minute walk, and the crime rate is low. Most homes are from the 1945-1970 period, and the area is well served by supermarkets and primary schools.
The nearest train station is 4.4 km away. That's about a 10-minute bike ride or a short bus trip. The listing does not specify bus lines, but Haarlem's public transport network is extensive.
The energy label is C. This means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but it's not as efficient as modern A-label homes. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of A-label homes, so this one is slightly less efficient than the local average.
