Very good. Lots of friendly people and there's always something to do
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about two years and there is more than enough access to shops/churches/schools etc, that was never a problem. However, this neighbourhood is poorly connected to public transport, which really should be better. This was a major reason for me to want to move, it was too far from e.g. Zernike, friends, or everything on the north side of the city. The neighbourhood always felt safe otherwise. Most of the nuisance came from schoolchildren during breaks at e.g. the shops and around the schools. They often don't put their rubbish in a bin, which I personally found very annoying. Other than that, the neighbourhood is perfectly fine.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy, the neighbourhood is beautifully green. Shops nearby, public transport nearby and the A28 nearby. Also many schools, primary and secondary. Hoornse Plas is within cycling distance. Open-air swimming pool De Papiermolen is within walking distance. In 10 minutes by bike you're in the city centre, perfect!

About Van Lenneplaan 123, Groningen
The asking price is 23% below the average asking price in De Wijert (€283,371) and also below the median of €249,000. Homes in the neighbourhood sell quickly, typically within 20 days, which suggests demand is healthy. Given the 76 m² floor area and the F energy label, the price looks keen compared to other apartments in the area.
Energy label F is one of the least efficient ratings, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills than a home with a better label. In De Wijert, most homes for sale have a C label or better, so this apartment is below the neighbourhood average in efficiency. It's worth factoring in potential upgrades to improve the label.
Very convenient. Albert Heijn and Lidl are both 144 metres away, just around the corner, and Jumbo is 576 metres away, a five-minute walk. There are also several other supermarkets within a kilometre. For daily groceries, you won't need to go far.

For secondary education, Montessori Vaklyceum is just 120 metres from the door, and another Montessori location is 257 metres away. There's also a school for practical education at 352 metres.
