Geneesherenbuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 1962 apartment on William Harveystraat sits in a leafy part of Haarlem. With 95 m² of living space, it is a generous size for a flat. The energy label G means heating costs will be high, but the asking price of €370,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €595,000. For context, the apartments in Haarlem typically sell for less per m² than the local average.
The neighbourhood Geneesherenbuurt is a mixed bag according to residents. One says: "A green residential area with plenty of space, all amenities within walking distance, child-friendly and little traffic." Another is less positive: "Very noisy, I don't feel safe walking my dog in the dark, often dirty with lots of rubbish." The neighbourhood is densely built with 3,707 addresses per km², and half the homes are single-family houses. Around 47% are owner-occupied.
For daily shopping, Lidl is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. Two primary schools are on your doorstep: IKC Schalkwijk and OBS de Globe. The municipality Haarlem has a wide range of secondary schools within a ten-minute cycle. A park or public garden is a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Beste HV and appears on several channels.

About William Harveystraat 48, Haarlem
The asking price of €370,000 is well below the neighbourhood average of €595,000 for homes currently for sale. However, the only comparable sold recently went for €426,000, and this flat has an energy label G, which means higher energy costs. Given the size and location, the price is on the low side, but the poor energy rating is a factor to weigh up.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not energy-efficient, so you can expect high heating and electricity bills. In the Geneesherenbuurt, all other homes currently for sale have label A+, so this flat stands out as much less efficient.
The nearest train station is 4.2 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a 20-minute cycle.
Residents have mixed views. One describes the area as green, spacious and child-friendly with little traffic. Another finds it noisy, unsafe at night and dirty. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and singles, with an average household size of 2.3 people.
Yes, several primary schools are within walking distance: IKC Schalkwijk at 91 m, OBS de Globe at 158 m, and IKC Valeo at 260 m. Secondary schools are about 1.4 km away, so a short cycle or bus ride.
Lidl is just 214 m away, so a couple of minutes' walk. Albert Heijn is 502 m, Dekamarkt 556 m, and Vomar 665 m. You have plenty of options for daily groceries within a five- to ten-minute walk.
