Homes for sale in Hanzewijk/Greente, Kampen

House prices and market figures Hanzewijk/Greente, Kampen

The owner-occupied market in Hanzewijk/Greente is relatively limited in size: only 41% of the more than 1,300 homes are owner-occupied, the rest are rental properties, the vast majority of which are owned by a housing association. This makes the supply of owner-occupied homes in Hanzewijk/Greente scarce and competition between buyers sometimes fierce. The average WOZ value in the neighbourhood is €289,000, which is equal to the district average of Kampen, but clearly lower than the municipal average of €314,000. So if you are looking for a home to buy with a lower entry price than elsewhere in the municipality, you can find interesting options here.

Living in Hanzewijk/Greente, Kampen

Hanzewijk/Greente is a quiet, largely residential neighbourhood on the west side of Kampen. The name refers to the city's Hanseatic tradition and the green character of the area around the Greente, a waterway that runs through the neighbourhood. The streetscape is dominated by terraced houses and semi-detached houses from the 1970s and 1980s, with relatively spacious gardens and wide streets. It is not a trendy city district, but a neighbourhood where life revolves around family, school and the weekly shopping. That has its own value for people who prefer peace and space over urban hustle and bustle.

For daily shopping, you can go to the supermarkets in the nearby shopping strips, including shops on the Nieuwe Australiëweg and in the centre of Kampen within walking distance. The centre of Kampen, with its historic city centre, characteristic IJsselkade and shops, is within ten minutes by bike. Children in the neighbourhood attend primary schools located in and around the district, including schools that fall under the Stichting Christelijk Primair Onderwijs Kampen. For secondary education, several schools in Kampen itself are accessible. Sports clubs are also available: football, tennis and swimming are possible at clubs and facilities in the immediate vicinity of the district.

In terms of accessibility, Hanzewijk/Greente is reasonably well connected. By car, you can quickly drive towards Zwolle or Lelystad via the N764 and the connection to the A28. Kampen station is about ten minutes away by bike, from where train connections run towards Zwolle. From Zwolle, further connections to Utrecht, Amsterdam and Groningen are easy to make. Bus services run through the district and connect Hanzewijk/Greente with the centre and other districts. If you commute daily to Zwolle, you are in a fairly favourable position here.

Residents particularly appreciate the neighbourhood for its peace, space and affordable house prices compared to other parts of the municipality. One resident describes it as: "An ordinary, decent neighbourhood where you know each other and where children can play safely outside. Not exciting, but pleasant." Less positive are some residents about the appearance of the public space, which looks somewhat dated in places, and about the limited catering facilities in the neighbourhood itself. See all reviews and neighbourhood scores on the page for Hanzewijk/Greente.

If you compare the neighbourhood with surrounding neighbourhoods, you will notice that Binnenstad Kampen has a very different character: more historic, more urban, but also more expensive and with less space. Kampen-Zuid is a more recent expansion district with more modern homes and a slightly higher average price. Brunnepe, on the other hand, has a more mixed character with older workers' homes close to the IJssel. Hanzewijk/Greente sits in between: not the most characteristic part of Kampen, but a neighbourhood with a stable, family-oriented atmosphere and a modest price level compared to the municipal average. More context about the wider district can be found on the page about owner-occupied homes in Kampen.

Who is a home to buy in Hanzewijk/Greente interesting for?

Based on the demographic composition, Hanzewijk/Greente is primarily a neighbourhood for families with children and people in the 25 to 45 age category. The spacious terraced houses and relatively affordable entry prices make it attractive for young families looking for a first home to buy or moving up from a rental property. There is also a significant presence of over-65s in the neighbourhood, suggesting that it is also pleasant to live there later in life. First-time buyers with a limited budget may be able to enter at the lower end of the market, around €230,000, although supply is limited and some speed is required. A disadvantage to honestly mention: due to the large share of housing association rental properties (55%), the supply of owner-occupied homes is structurally small, which limits choice. Also consider the rental properties in Hanzewijk/Greente as an alternative if the purchase offer falls short.

What residents say about Hanzewijk/Greente
