De Wijert, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on a leafy street in De Wijert feels calm and settled. The 71 m² floor plan is compact but well laid out, with an energy label D, something to factor in given that most other homes for sale in the neighbourhood have a better rating. At €280,000, the asking price is in line with the local market, where the average home sells for around €283,000. For context, apartments in Groningen vary widely, but this one sits at a fair level for its size and age.
De Wijert is a green, family-friendly neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as "cosy, everything nearby, green," and another says it's "very good. Lots of friendly people and there's always something to do."

The neighbourhood has a mix of households, with many singles and a fair number of families. Based on four reviews, it scores an 8.13 out of 10. You can read more about the neighbourhood De Wijert.

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 65, Groningen
The asking price of €280,000 is close to the average sale price in De Wijert (€261,305) and the average asking price (€283,371). Given the 71 m² floor area and energy label D, it is priced in line with the market. Homes in this neighbourhood sell quickly, typically within 20 days, so it is a realistic price for a well-located apartment.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a home with label A or B. In De Wijert, most homes for sale have a better energy label (only 23% are D or lower), so this is something to consider when budgeting for monthly bills.
