NeighbourhoodThis 1936 terraced house on Goudenregenstraat sits in a lively part of Leeuwarden, with a friendly, lived-in feel.

At €379,000, it is the most expensive of the ten homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 34% above the average asking price of €283,850, so it is on the high side compared to the local market.

Although there are occasionally some vagrants wandering around the neighbourhood or drunk men making it a bit unsafe, it is otherwise a very nice neighbourhood. Everything is within walking or cycling distance and there are plenty of supermarkets, gyms and schools nearby. There's also a nice bakery at the end of the street. It's very pleasant living here. It's also clean, no litter on the streets and rubbish is collected often. There's a forest nearby but it's unsafe in the evening.
Auto-translated to English by AIStrange little neighbourhood, there are often strange people hanging around on the street. There are always groups of chavs chilling in front of their houses at night. Most neighbours are friendly though. Many amenities nearby, such as primary school, secondary school within walking distance, shopping square, sports club. The other night at around two in the morning I was smoking a cigarette in front of my house, and an old dark-skinned woman asked if I wanted to buy a racing bike (in excellent condition) for ten euros, haha. The streets are extremely narrow and some are genuinely difficult to drive into with a car.

About Goudenregenstraat 25, Leeuwarden
The asking price of €379,000 is 34% above the neighbourhood average of €283,850 and is the highest among the ten homes currently for sale in Oldegalileën. However, the floor area of 130 m² is 30% larger than the neighbourhood average of 100 m², which partly explains the premium. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the extra space and the specific features of this 1936 terraced house.
The home has energy label B, which is quite efficient. In the neighbourhood, 27.3% of homes have label B, and another 27.3% have label A or better. Label B means the home is well-insulated compared to older properties, so heating costs should be moderate. The home was built in 1936, so the label suggests it has been upgraded over time.
Residents have mixed views. One review mentions occasional vagrants or drunk men making it feel a bit unsafe, but otherwise finds it pleasant and clean. Another notes strange people hanging around and groups of chavs at night, but says most neighbours are friendly. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 96, but without a per-capita figure it is hard to compare. It is an urban area with a high density, so some street activity is normal.
There are several schools within walking distance. The nearest primary school is IKC Prins Constantijn at 184 m, and IKC Aventurijn is at 341 m. For secondary education, Stedelijk Gymnasium is 624 m away. There is also a special primary school, Aquamarijn, at 581 m. All are within a ten-minute walk, making the area convenient for families with school-age children.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km from the home. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
The closest supermarket is Jumbo at 465 m, followed by Poiesz at 534 m, Ekoplaza at 673 m, Aldi at 685 m, and Lidl at 713 m. All are within a ten-minute walk, so daily grocery shopping is easy without a car.
The plot size is 147 m², which typically includes some outdoor space, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden. Given that it is a terraced house with a plot, there is likely a front and back yard, but you would need to check the exact layout with the agent.
