NeighbourhoodThis 1935 apartment in Helpman has a lived-in feel, with 76 m² of space and an energy label D. At €315,000, the asking price is below the neighbourhood average of €360,805, making it a keen option compared to other apartments in Groningen.
Helpman is a dense, urban neighbourhood with over 6,000 residents, mostly singles and students. One resident describes it as "mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community." They note that "there are three supermarkets within walking distance" and "other amenities are also nearby," though the 15-minute bike ride to the city centre is "a shame." The neighbourhood Helpman has a mix of pre-war and post-war housing, with half the homes owner-occupied.
For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with another Albert Heijn and a Lidl a couple of streets away. Schools are close: the Montessori Vaklyceum and Zernike College are within a five-minute walk, and the Joseph Haydn-School is also nearby. The municipality Groningen offers plenty of restaurants and a park within walking distance.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Riant Makelaars Groningen and also appears on Funda.

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.

About Van Starkenborghstraat 124, Groningen
The asking price of €315,000 is below the average sold price in Helpman (€320,581) and well under the current average asking price of €360,805. Given the 76 m² floor area, the price per m² (€4,145) is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,895, but the overall price is competitive for a pre-war apartment in this location.
The home has energy label D. In Helpman, only 22.2% of homes have a label D or lower, while most of the current sales stock has better ratings. Label D means moderate insulation, so heating costs will be higher than in a more efficient home, but no exact amounts are available.
