Gorechtbuurt, Groningen
NeighbourhoodThis pre-war terraced house sits on a leafy street in the Gorechtbuurt, a stone's throw from the Oosterpark. With 61 m² of living space and an E energy label, it's a classic city home that needs some modernisation. At €350,000, the asking price is 21% above the neighbourhood average of €288,340, which puts it on the high side compared to other terraced houses in Groningen.
Residents give the neighbourhood a 7.6 out of 10. One calls it a "Great spot, lots of amenities and close to the centre of Groningen." Another describes it as a "Cosy working-class neighbourhood" with "lots of trees, rustling leaves, a pleasant walk along the pond." A third reviewer, who lives near the city beach, says: "I really enjoy living here. It's within walking distance of Lidl and Aldi. I also like going to the city beach and doing my workouts at the calisthenics park near DOT. I feel very safe in the neighbourhood." The area is densely populated (5,467 addresses per km²) and home to many young people and students. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Gorechtbuurt.
For your morning bread, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn to go is a couple of streets away. Lidl and a full Albert Heijn are a ten-minute walk. Primary school IKC Borgman Oosterpark is a five-minute walk, and secondary schools like H.N. Werkman Stadslyceum and Praedinius Gymnasium are within a ten-minute stroll. The municipality Groningen keeps the city bike-friendly, so most errands are done on two wheels.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Makelaardij Van Santen de Hoog and Huispedia.

Auto-translated to English by AILots of trees, rustling leaves, a pleasant walk along the pond. A quick greeting, a chat with a neighbour. Quickly on the bike to pick up a forgotten item. Another familiar face in the shop. How's it going?
Auto-translated to English by AII really enjoy living here. It's within walking distance of Lidl and Aldi. I also like going to the city beach and doing my workouts at the calisthenics park near DOT. I feel very safe in the neighbourhood. There are some students living behind who can make noise until late in the evening, but I don't mind that. Otherwise, I live with many young working people in the apartment complex. All in all, very satisfied. You can definitely live here!!
Auto-translated to English by AIA fresh, easily accessible neighbourhood with some new-build homes. Everything is neat and tidy, at least that's my impression now that I've been living here for a month. As far as I know, there are few neighbourhood activities and associations. This was better organised in the Zeeheldenbuurt.

About Petrus Campersingel 79, Groningen
The asking price is 21% above the neighbourhood average of €288,340, which makes it one of the more expensive homes in the Gorechtbuurt. However, terraced houses are rare here (only 10% of the housing stock), so the premium reflects the property type. The price per m² works out at roughly €5,738, compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,529 per m².
The home has an energy label E, which is common for a house built in 1903. In the neighbourhood, about 34% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is in line with the older housing stock. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home, but the exact amount depends on usage and future improvements.
