Very beautiful neighbourhood in Groningen. Lots of facilities such as various schools, gym, playgrounds and plenty of supermarkets and other shops. What is unpleasant is that there is often rubbish next to the bins. Furthermore, the neighbourhood has many nice small parks and you are within no time in a quiet natural environment where you can enjoy walking, running, cycling etc. All in all, this neighbourhood is perfect for students but also for families and other city dwellers.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is quite cosy, though sometimes dirty because rubbish isn't put in the bins, so hygiene isn't always great. Lots of students, so sometimes there aren't enough places to park your bike. There isn't really a neighbourhood association or other communities that I'm part of. The area also has a primary school, a university of applied sciences, a nice park, several playgrounds and plenty of other amenities. Definitely a safe neighbourhood, but the houses are very old. All in all, a great place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIPleasant neighbours all around, cosy, many amenities in the area, fairly green, people greet each other or have a chat. Annual neighbourhood party. Easily accessible from both sides of the ring road. Safe feeling of living. Both students, elderly and families.
Auto-translated to English by AIA good neighbourhood, but a lot of waste from the Orientals on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII think it's a nice neighbourhood! Often there is rubbish from the shop in the street. Otherwise, it's a fun neighbourhood!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause of the many 'students' and junkies in my complex, I don't feel very safe.. also had a break-in at my previous home and now have very unpleasant neighbours. The housing association does nothing about it

About Weerlandhof 2, Groningen
The asking price is above the neighbourhood median of €325,000 and the average sold price of €319,480. However, this apartment has an A+++ energy label, which is rare in an area where 85% of homes were built before 1945. The 64 m² floor area is smaller than the local average of 86 m², so the price per m² is relatively high. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value modern efficiency over space.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the Professorenbuurt, only about 27% of homes have an A+ label or better, so this apartment stands out. You can expect a comfortable indoor climate with minimal energy bills.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. Groningen's main station offers connections to the rest of the Netherlands.
Jumbo and Aldi are both about 350 metres away, just a few minutes' walk. Albert Heijn is slightly further at 395 metres, and Ekoplaza and Lidl are within 500 metres. You have plenty of options for daily groceries.
Residents generally feel safe. One review mentions it's 'definitely a safe neighbourhood', though another notes that rubbish sometimes isn't put in bins, which affects hygiene. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 464, but without context it's hard to compare. Overall, the neighbourhood scores 7.57 out of 10 from 13 reviews.
The agent has not provided the year of construction in the listing. This detail is missing, so the exact age of the building is unknown. The rest of the information about the home and neighbourhood is based on available data.
