Frequently asked questions
About Marsstraat 141, Groningen
Is €375,000 a fair price for this corner house?
The asking price of €375,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €331,260 and the median of €350,000. However, corner houses are less common in Paddepoel-Noord, where only 29% of homes are single-family. The price per square metre works out at about €2,907, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,039 per m². So while the total price is on the high side, it reflects the larger floor area.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The home has energy label C. That means it has reasonable insulation and energy efficiency, but not the highest standards. In the neighbourhood, 44.4% of homes have label C, so it's typical for the area. You can expect moderate energy costs, but not as low as with an A or B label.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. That makes it convenient for commuting to the city centre or further afield.
What is the neighbourhood like in terms of safety?
Residents have mixed feelings. One says: "it's nice being close to the shopping centre, but I don't feel very safe when I walk out of my house." Another mentions that busy traffic is sometimes a downside. The total number of reported crimes in the area is 254, but without a per-capita comparison it's hard to judge. Overall, the neighbourhood scores a 7.09 out of 10 from five reviews.
Are there good schools nearby?
Yes, several schools are within walking distance. Primary school De Pendinghe is about 971 m away, and there are other options like De Sterrensteen and Bisschop Bekkers within about a kilometre. For secondary education, Portalis is 620 m away. So children can walk or cycle to school easily.
What supermarkets are close by?
SPAR is just 383 m away, so you can pop out for groceries in a few minutes. Albert Heijn is about 800 m, and there are also Jumbo and Lidl within a kilometre. That gives you plenty of choice for daily shopping.
