Helpman

Helpman is a mixed neighbourhood with a strong student presence, many one-person households and a young population. One resident describes it as "mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community." They appreciate the nearby supermarkets and amenities but note that the city centre is a 15-minute bike ride away. The neighbourhood Helpman has a high density of addresses, making it feel urban.

Life on the street

For daily shopping, Poiesz is just around the corner and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. The Joseph Haydn-School and Groningse Schoolvereniging are both within a five-minute walk for primary education, while Zernike College for secondary education is also close by. The municipality Groningen offers plenty of cultural and recreational options.

Mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community

I have almost no contact with neighbours. There are three supermarkets within walking distance. Other amenities are also nearby. To get to the city centre, it's always a 15-minute bike ride, which is a shame.

Frequently asked questions

About Van Houtenlaan 176A, Groningen

Is €315,000 a fair price for this apartment?

At 93 m², the price works out to about €3,387 per m², which is below the neighbourhood average of €3,895 per m². However, the energy label D is less efficient than most homes in Helpman, where over 60% of listings have label C or better. So it's priced for its size, but you'll likely face higher energy costs.

What is the neighbourhood like?

Helpman is a densely populated urban area with many students and young adults. The resident review describes it as individualistic, with occasional community efforts. Amenities like supermarkets and schools are within walking distance, but the city centre is a 15-minute bike ride away.

How far is the train station?

The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride.

What supermarkets are nearby?

Poiesz is 394 metres away, and Albert Heijn is 451 metres away, both within a five-minute walk. There's also a Lidl and Jumbo within about 1.1,1.4 km.

What schools are close to this home?

Primary schools: Joseph Haydn-School (423 m) and Groningse Schoolvereniging (470 m). For secondary education, Zernike College is 568 m away.

What does energy label D mean?

Energy label D indicates moderate efficiency. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with label A or B. In Helpman, 22.2% of homes have label D or worse, so it's not uncommon, but most available listings perform better.
