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 349, Groningen
The asking price of €225,000 is 21% below the average asking price in De Wijert (€283,371) and also below the median of €249,000. Given the energy label G and the need for modernisation, the price reflects the condition. Homes in this neighbourhood sell quickly, averaging 20 days on the market, so it is priced to attract buyers.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. In De Wijert, most homes for sale have labels C or better, so this apartment will likely need investment in insulation or heating upgrades to improve efficiency.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle. One resident noted that public transport connections could be better, especially to the north side of the city. However, the A28 motorway is nearby for car travel.
Albert Heijn and Lidl are both just around the corner (277 m), and Jumbo is a ten-minute walk (680 m). There are also several schools within walking distance, including Montessori Vaklyceum (75 m) and primary school De Tamarisk (495 m). A GP is 0.9 km away, and a restaurant is 0.5 km away.
De Wijert is described as beautifully green by residents. A park or public garden is 0.4 km away, and the Hoornse Plas lake is within cycling distance. The open-air swimming pool De Papiermolen is within walking distance. The neighbourhood has a high address density (3532 addresses per km²) but still feels leafy.
The neighbourhood has a high proportion of single-person households (1715 out of 2829 homes) and a relatively young population, with the largest age group being 25 to 45 years old (1750 residents). Only 15% of homes are single-family houses, so apartments like this one are common.
