Pierik, Zwolle
NeighbourhoodThis 1935 terraced house on Hortensiastraat sits in a quiet part of Pierik, with a front garden and a sunny rear garden. At 116 m² on a 171 m² plot, it's a proper family home. With an energy label B, it's reasonably efficient for its age. At €595,000, it's the most expensive of the five homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and sits 29% above the average asking price of €460,400, so it's on the high side compared with terraced houses in Zwolle.
Pierik is a compact neighbourhood just north of the city centre, with a mix of pre-war and post-war housing. The area feels established: wide streets, plenty of trees, and a surprising amount of green for an urban setting. One resident sums it up: 'Good accessibility, parking at my house, plenty of space to sit outside, lots of shops.' The only downside they mention is 'not much forest in the area.' Based on that single review, the neighbourhood scores a 7.5 out of 10. Most homes are owner-occupied (74% are single-family), and the population is a mix of young professionals and families. For more context, see the Pierik neighbourhood.
Your morning bread run is a five-minute walk to Boni on Assendorperstraat, or a ten-minute stroll to Jumbo. For a bigger shop, Albert Heijn is about 15 minutes on foot. Primary school Het Mozaiek is just around the corner, literally 116 metres away, and secondary school Thorbecke SGM is a couple of streets away. There's a GP practice within walking distance, and the train station is 2.4 km away, a pleasant bike ride. The neighbourhood falls under the municipality of Zwolle, which keeps the streets tidy and the parks well maintained.
The home is listed through two channels, including Van Dorsten Makelaars en Hypotheken. At present, it's the priciest option in Pierik, so it may take a bit longer to find the right buyer.
