Onnen Dorp, Groningen
This 1930s detached house on Dorpsweg sits in the heart of Onnen, a village where life moves at a gentler pace. With 363 m² of living space and a 1,010 m² plot, there is room to spread out. The asking price of €1,249,000 is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Groningen, but the generous proportions and energy label B add to its appeal.
One resident describes the neighbourhood Onnen Dorp as "Friendly", noting: "A lot is organised by various associations, from music to all kinds of activities and festivities. There is an ice rink (in summer a large football field), playground, basketball court and a mini library." The village has a community centre with a pub and an old-fashioned village newspaper. "Walking or cycling, you are in the middle of nature in no time," they add. The only downside: "Finding a house here is not easy. Few houses are for sale and those that are for sale are pricey." Based on one review, the neighbourhood scores 7.88 out of 10.

About Dorpsweg 19, Onnen
The price is on the high side for a vrijstaande woning in Groningen, but the 363 m² floor area and 1,010 m² plot are generous. The home has energy label B, which is efficient. In Onnen, houses rarely come up for sale, so the premium reflects the scarcity in this sought-after village.
The energy label is B, which means the home is quite energy-efficient. You can expect relatively low heating costs compared to older homes with lower labels. The 1930s build has likely been well insulated and modernised to achieve this rating.
The nearest train station is 3.3 km away. That is about a 40-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
Onnen Dorp is a quiet village with a strong community spirit. Residents organise activities, there is a village pub, and nature is on your doorstep. The downside is that houses rarely come up for sale and are expensive, making it hard for starters. The bus service is limited to morning and afternoon.
The plot is 1,010 m², which is very spacious. It offers plenty of room for a garden, outdoor entertaining, or even a vegetable patch.

How residents experience their neighbourhood
A lot is organised by various associations, from music to all kinds of activities and festivities. There is an ice rink (in summer a large football field), playground, basketball court and a mini library. We have a community centre with a village pub. We still have an old-fashioned village newspaper with information for and about the villagers. Walk each other's dog? No problem! Feed the cats during the holidays? Check! Neighbourhood drinks next week? Cosy! Walking or cycling, you are in the middle of nature in no time (the Onner polder or the forest). It's lovely living in a quiet village, but there is also plenty to do. I've been living here for 7 years now and I'm sure many more years will follow. Points for improvement? Finding a house here is not easy. Few houses are for sale and those that are for sale are pricey, very difficult for starters/young families. Previously, the bus ran all day to/through Onnen, now only in the morning and afternoon. A pity.

It is my birthplace and I have experienced all the ins and outs of the village. Four years ago, the jackpot of the Postcode Lottery fell in Glimmen. For me, it was much less fun at that time because I was in hospital with serious liver problems, even at New Year's I was still there after two cardiac arrests, luckily resuscitated in time. Then such a lottery prize becomes a side issue; I had four tickets!!!?. But when you almost die, money is not an option. Now more about Glimmen: it is a water extraction area for Groningen, and our tap water comes from the little river Drentse A and groundwater that is pumped up. Glimmen is also historically important; there are stories about Bommenberend staying in a castle and besieging Groningen in the year 1700 or 1800. In Glimmen, there is still a castle in the Drentse A area. Best regards, Jan Jager

Auto-translated to English by AIGlimmen is a leafy village with lots of nature and forest. Many detached houses and a wide choice of associations and clubs. The location is also ideal relative to motorways and Groningen. Haren is a cosy village with a wide variety of shops. Especially in summer some nuisance from air traffic, but not too dominant.

How residents experience their municipality
Ik woon hier nu, met ups en downs qua lawaai/herrie, nu 12,5 jaar. Altijd gekozen om hier toch te blijven, gezien de fijne buren en nette straat, met de mooie Hamburgervijver om de hoek waar ik graag eens zit te relaxen. Alle voorzieningen vlakbij en bushalte aan de kade, ideaal als je vaak en graag reist :). Ik voel me hier onderhand erg veilig, in al die tijd alleen eens een brand geweest maar verder kun je hier rustig je leventje leven, veelal hoog opgeleide buren, wat prettig is in het contact. Ik ben blij dat ik hier nog steeds woon.
