Geneesherenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor flat on Robert Kochlaan sits in a leafy part of Haarlem, with mature trees and wide streets. At 100 m² it's a good size for a couple or small family, and with energy label B it's reasonably efficient. The asking price of €399,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €595,000, partly because this is the only flat currently for sale in the Geneesherenbuurt. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely in price and size.
Based on two reviews, the Geneesherenbuurt divides opinion. One resident calls it "A green residential area with plenty of space" and notes "all amenities within walking distance, close to shops, hospital, doctor and pharmacy. Child-friendly neighbourhood, little traffic." Another describes it as "Very noisy" and says "I don't feel safe walking my dog in the dark. Many noisy young people in cars and on motorbikes. Often very dirty with lots of rubbish on the street." The neighbourhood is densely populated with 2,735 residents and a very high address density of 3,707 per km². Most homes are owner-occupied (47%) and half are single-family houses. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Geneesherenbuurt.

Primary school IKC Valeo is a couple of streets away, and there are several other schools within a five-minute walk. The nearest park is just around the corner, and a GP is a ten-minute walk.
