Hommelstraat, Arnhem
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Bloemstraat 13 is a true starter home in the lively Spijkerkwartier neighbourhood. With 30 m² of living space, it's compact but efficient, perfect for a first buyer. The building dates from 1906 and has energy label D, so heating costs are something to budget for. At €195,000, it's the cheapest of the 12 homes currently for sale in the Hommelstraat area, and 45% below the average asking price of €352,292 in the neighbourhood. That makes it a keen entry point into the Arnhem housing market, especially compared to other studios in Arnhem.
The neighbourhood Hommelstraat is part of the Spijkerkwartier, a dense, inner-city area with a very strong urban feel (over 4,900 addresses per km²). It's a young neighbourhood: most residents are between 25 and 45, and more than half of households are single-person. Families with children are rare, so the vibe is more about city living than playgrounds. There are no resident reviews available for this street, but the CBS figures paint a picture of a lively, diverse area with a mix of old and new housing, half the homes were built before 1945.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Coop and PLUS are a couple of streets away. Three primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Jenaplan basisschool de Sterrenkring, Jan Ligthartschool, and Montessorischool De Binnenstad. The Stedelijk Gymnasium Arnhem is about a ten-minute walk for secondary education. A park or garden is only a couple of streets away, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Arnhem has plenty more to offer, but this studio puts you right in the middle of it.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Ron Pieters Makelaardij.

About Bloemstraat 13, Arnhem
Yes, it's the cheapest home currently for sale in the Hommelstraat neighbourhood, and 45% below the average asking price of €352,292. The average price per m² in the area is €5,138, so at €6,500 per m² this studio is above that, but the low total price reflects its compact size. Given the limited supply of studios in Arnhem, it's priced to attract first-time buyers.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have label A, so this studio is less efficient than average. Label D means you can expect moderate to high energy costs, especially in winter. It's worth checking the exact energy consumption figures with the agent.
