Helpman, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis 1970s apartment on Verlengde Hereweg sits in a leafy part of Helpman, a neighbourhood known for its pre-war villas and green streets. At €385,000 for 90 m², the price is a touch above the neighbourhood average of €360,805, but that reflects the larger-than-average floor area. Compared to other apartments in Groningen, it's priced keenly for its size.
Helpman is a diverse area with a high proportion of single-person households (43%) and a large student population. One resident describes it as "mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community." The same resident notes: "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." The neighbourhood Helpman has a moderate crime rate of 236 incidents per year, and the housing stock is a mix of pre-war and post-war buildings.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, with Lidl and Poiesz a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Joseph Haydn-School, is a five-minute walk, and secondary school Zernike College is even closer. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk away, and the train station is a ten-minute cycle. The municipality Groningen offers a wide range of amenities, with restaurants and a library within walking distance.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Dunning Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

About Verlengde Hereweg 27B, Groningen
The asking price of €385,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €360,805, but this apartment is 90 m², which is close to the average of 94 m² in Helpman. The price per m² works out to about €4,278, which is a bit higher than the neighbourhood average of €3,895 per m². Given the energy label C and the 1970 build year, the price is in line with the market for a well-sized apartment in this area.
Helpman is a quiet, leafy neighbourhood with a mix of students, young professionals, and families. It has a high proportion of single-person households (43%) and a relatively young population. The area is well-served by supermarkets and schools, but the city centre is a 15-minute bike ride away. One resident describes it as 'mostly every man for himself, with occasional attempts to build a community.'
The city centre of Groningen is about 2.5 km away, which is a 15-minute bike ride or a 10-minute bus ride. The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, so you can also cycle there in about 10 minutes.
Albert Heijn is just 227 metres away, so you can walk there in under three minutes. Lidl and Poiesz are about 800 metres away, a ten-minute walk. Aldi is about 1 km away. So daily groceries are very convenient.
The nearest primary school is Joseph Haydn-School, 449 metres away (a five-minute walk). For secondary education, Zernike College is 241 metres away, and Gomarus College is 640 metres away. There are also several other schools within walking distance.
The energy label is C, which is average for a 1970s apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation but not the highest efficiency. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The apartment is on Verlengde Hereweg, so it likely has no private outdoor space. However, there is a park or public garden 500 metres away.
