Binnenstad, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a home on one of Haarlem's most vibrant shopping streets. The listing does not state the property type, floor area or year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €625,000, the price sits above the neighbourhood median of €590,000, but without floor area it is hard to say whether that is keen or high. For context, the average price per m² in the area is €7,810, and there are currently 40 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, see homes in Haarlem.
Binnenstad is the historic centre, packed with shops, restaurants and culture. One resident describes it as: "Beautiful neighbourhood...shops nearby, bus connections nearby. Cosy....lots of greenery, beautiful street lighting and great to be able to live here." That single review gives a perfect score of 10 out of 10. The area is densely urban, with 5,966 addresses per km², and most homes were built before 1945 (91%). It is a place of contrasts: lots of singles (1,105 one-person households) and young adults (1,455 aged 25-45), but also families with children (235). The neighbourhood Binnenstad is lively and compact.
Grote Houtstraat is a pedestrianised shopping street, so your daily rhythm is shaped by the shops and cafés on your doorstep. For groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, Dekamarkt is a couple of streets away, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. For school runs, Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem is a couple of streets away, and Veronica Jenaplanschool is a five-minute walk. The municipality Haarlem offers all the amenities of a city centre, from restaurants to a library and a park.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Hanson Bedrijfsmakelaars+. The agent has not published the property type, floor area or year of construction, so the listing is incomplete.

Hanson Bedrijfsmakelaars+ has published only the street and price on Funda. As a result, the description focuses on the street and neighbourhood rather than the home itself.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. Heating costs are likely to be higher than for a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, 39.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
