Glimmen Dorp, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Nieuwe Kampsteeg sits in the heart of Glimmen, a village that feels like a green oasis. With 363 m² of living space on a 1026 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The asking price of €1,500,000 is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Groningen, but the size and location justify it.
Glimmen is a leafy village with lots of nature and forest, as one resident puts it: "Green, rural yet close to all amenities!" Another resident adds: "A beautiful village nestled between two forests and two lakes." The neighbourhood has a mix of mostly detached houses, with many families and older residents. It's a quiet, safe area with very low crime figures.
For daily shopping, you can head to the Jumbo or Albert Heijn, both about a ten-minute drive away. The IKC Quintusschool is just a couple of streets away, making the school run a short walk. For secondary education, children travel a bit further, but the village itself has a strong community feel. The municipality Groningen offers plenty of green space and recreational opportunities nearby.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Makelaardij Aimée Staal, Funda, Huispedia, and Pararius.

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.
