Bloemenbuurt, Leeuwarden
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s detached house on Groningerstraatweg in Leeuwarden stands out in the Bloemenbuurt. With 110 m² of living space and a 267 m² plot, it offers a generous footprint for the area. At €379,000, it is the most expensive of the 11 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 38% above the average asking price of €274,314, so it is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Leeuwarden.
The neighbourhood Bloemenbuurt is a densely urban area with 1,345 residents and a high address density of 3,799 per km². Most homes are pre-war (86%), and two-thirds are single-family. Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed. One resident says: "You can sum it up as follows: My experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself." Another notes: "After living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here."
For daily groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Poiesz and Aldi are a couple of streets away. Primary schools are close: IKC Franciscus is on your doorstep, and IKC Eestroom is a five-minute walk. For secondary education, CSG Comenius Zamenhof is also a couple of streets away. The municipality Leeuwarden provides the wider setting, with a park or public garden just around the corner and a restaurant within a five-minute walk.

You can sum it up as follows: > My experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself. The housing is reasonable, but in my opinion, the houses on Azaleastraat are in need of a thorough renovation. Additionally, there are few to no amenities in the immediate vicinity, which does not improve the liveability of the neighbourhood. Based on my personal experiences, I would therefore not recommend the Bloemenbuurt as a place to live.
Auto-translated to English by AIAfter living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is praised everywhere, but the truth is less beautiful. People often cluster together to badmouth other neighbours. I've also heard that further down the street there's a serious neighbour dispute; apparently a middle-aged woman regularly bullies her surrounding neighbours and also causes damage to other neighbours' property. So living here isn't all that great after all. Klaas.

About Groningerstraatweg 237, Leeuwarden
The asking price of €379,000 is 38% above the neighbourhood average of €274,314 and is the highest of the 11 homes currently for sale in the Bloemenbuurt. The average price per m² in the area is €2,721, so this home's price per m² works out higher. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the larger plot and detached character compared to other homes in the neighbourhood.
The home has energy label D. This is a mid-range label, meaning the property is not particularly energy-efficient. Heating costs are likely to be moderate but higher than for homes with labels A, B or C. In the neighbourhood, 64% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
The nearest train station is 2.5 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle ride. This makes it feasible for commuting, though not within walking distance for a quick trip.
