A spacious family home in Leeuwarden's Bloemenbuurt

With an energy label C, it's reasonably efficient for its age. The last known asking price of €315,000 was 15% above the neighbourhood average of €274,314, so it was on the high side, but you're paying for that extra space.

The Bloemenbuurt: mixed reviews from residents
The neighbourhood Bloemenbuurt has a low average review score of 5.9 out of 10, based on three reviews. One resident says: "You can sum it up as follows: my experience with the Bloemenbuurt is very negative. In two consecutive situations, we had neighbours who caused a lot of nuisance. There were concerns about drug activities, the safety of children, and serious incidents in the neighbourhood, including a car explosion. As a result, I don't feel safe here and I wouldn't choose to live in this neighbourhood myself." Another resident notes: "After living in this neighbourhood for many years, a lot has changed in the meantime; many neighbours cause division among the residents, and they just do whatever they can't help doing. It must be the times, but it used to be nice living here." The neighbourhood is densely populated with many single-person households, and the area has a high crime rate.

About Goudsbloemstraat 38, Leeuwarden

Given the larger size and energy label C, the price was on the high side but reflected the extra space. Comparable homes in the area sell for around €274,540 on average, so you're paying a premium for the square metres.
