Auto-translated to English by AILots of trees, rustling leaves, a pleasant walk along the pond. A quick greeting, a chat with a neighbour. Quickly on the bike to pick up a forgotten item. Another familiar face in the shop. How's it going?
Auto-translated to English by AII really enjoy living here. It's within walking distance of Lidl and Aldi. I also like going to the city beach and doing my workouts at the calisthenics park near DOT. I feel very safe in the neighbourhood. There are some students living behind who can make noise until late in the evening, but I don't mind that. Otherwise, I live with many young working people in the apartment complex. All in all, very satisfied. You can definitely live here!!
Auto-translated to English by AIA fresh, easily accessible neighbourhood with some new-build homes. Everything is neat and tidy, at least that's my impression now that I've been living here for a month. As far as I know, there are few neighbourhood activities and associations. This was better organised in the Zeeheldenbuurt.

About Zaagmuldersweg 620, Groningen
The asking price of €210,000 is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €288,340, which makes it a keen price. However, the flat is smaller than average (50 m² vs 68 m²) and has an energy label F, so higher heating costs are to be expected. Compared to other apartments in Groningen, it's on the affordable side.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home will have higher heating costs compared to a more modern or better-insulated property. In the Gorechtbuurt, about 34% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F label is not uncommon for a building from 1957.
The nearest train station is 2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a 10-minute bike ride. The city centre of Groningen is also easily reachable by bike.
Residents describe the Gorechtbuurt as a cosy, safe neighbourhood with a mix of students and young working people. One resident mentions that some students can be noisy late at night, but overall they feel very satisfied. The area has many single-person households and a young population.
