Koninginnebuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. On one of Haarlem's most stately streets, this 1898 townhouse spans 302 m² over four floors, with a 186 m² plot. The energy label B means it's reasonably efficient for its age. At €1,685,000, the price is 60% above the neighbourhood average of €1,056,115, but then this home is 82% larger than the typical 166 m² in the area, so the price per square metre is actually in line with the market. For context, terraced houses in Haarlem vary widely, and this one sits at the upper end.
The Koninginnebuurt is a leafy, upscale part of Haarlem, with wide avenues and large houses. It's densely urban (4,428 addresses per km²) yet feels spacious. The neighbourhood has a mix of families and older residents, and about 70% of homes are owner-occupied. Reviews are mixed: one resident calls it "good", while another complains of "drug dealing, setting off fireworks, noisy parties, parking on the pavement, cargo bike terror, damp damage and a municipality that completely ignores its residents. You wouldn't expect it in the most expensive neighbourhood of Haarlem, but it's an everyday occurrence." So while the setting is beautiful, the reality on the ground can be less serene. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Koninginnebuurt.
Daily life here is convenient. For groceries, Ekoplaza is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Aldi are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including Cruquiusschool and International School Haarlem, and the ECL secondary school is also close by. The Haarlemmerhout park is on your doorstep, perfect for a morning run or an afternoon stroll. The municipality Haarlem keeps the city centre within easy reach, though the train station is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Borghouts Makelaars b.v. and is also available through other channels.
