A studio on the Damsterdiep
This studio on the Damsterdiep sits in the middle of Groningen's lively Binnenstad-Oost, a part of town where the energy of the city is always close by. At 25 m² it is compact, but the A++ energy label means it is very efficient to run, which is a real plus for a small home. The rent of €956 is keen compared with the average for studios in Groningen, which makes it an attractive option in this part of the market.
