Koninginnebuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 1910 apartment on Schouwtjeslaan sits in the Koninginnebuurt, a neighbourhood where wide streets and pre-war architecture set the tone. With 74 m² and an energy label C, it's a manageable home that feels rooted in the city's history. The asking price of €450,000 is notably keen compared to the neighbourhood average of over a million euros, partly because the home is smaller than the local norm. For context, apartments in Haarlem vary widely in size and price, but this one offers a rare entry point into a sought-after area.
The Koninginnebuurt is one of Haarlem's most desirable addresses, with tree-lined streets and a mix of families, couples, and older residents. It's densely populated (4,428 addresses per km²) and very urban, yet the Haarlemmerhout park is just a couple of streets away. One resident describes it as "good," while another gives a starkly different view: "Drug dealing, setting off fireworks, noisy parties, parking on the pavement, cargo bike terror, damp damage and a municipality that completely ignores its residents. You wouldn't expect it in the most expensive neighbourhood of Haarlem, but it's an everyday occurrence." Based on three reviews, the average score is 7.19 out of 10. The neighbourhood Koninginnebuurt is clearly a place of contrasts.
For your morning routine, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, with Vomar and Albert Heijn a five-minute walk away. Schools are close too: Obs Bos en Vaart primary school is on your doorstep, and the International School Haarlem is a five-minute walk. For secondary education, ECL (havo, atheneum, gymnasium) is a couple of streets away. The municipality Haarlem keeps the city centre within easy reach, but the neighbourhood itself has everything you need for daily errands.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Hamer & Ran Garantiemakelaars and appears on multiple platforms, including Funda and Huispedia. The price and details are current as of the listing date.

About Schouwtjeslaan 3A, Haarlem
The asking price of €450,000 is 57% below the neighbourhood average of €1,056,115, but the apartment is also 55% smaller than the typical home in the Koninginnebuurt (74 m² vs 166 m²). Given the smaller size and older construction (1910), the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact pre-war apartment in this area.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age. In the neighbourhood, 37.5% of homes have label C, while 25% have a lower rating. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern home.
The Koninginnebuurt has a mix of households: about 31% are families with children, and 31% are couples without children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Obs Bos en Vaart and the International School Haarlem. However, one resident reports issues like drug dealing and noise, so it's not uniformly quiet.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. Haarlem's central station offers connections to Amsterdam and other cities.
Ekoplaza is 608 m away, Vomar 688 m, and Albert Heijn 734 m, all within a five- to ten-minute walk. There are also restaurants 0.3 km away and a park 0.3 km away. The city centre is easily reachable by bike.
In the Koninginnebuurt, sold homes took an average of 22 days to sell. That's relatively quick, indicating a active market. With 26 homes currently for sale, there is some choice, but popular properties don't linger.
