Frequently asked questions
About Planetenlaan 242, Groningen
Is €375,000 a fair price for this house?
The asking price of €375,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €331,260 and the median of €350,000. However, this house is larger than average (130 m² vs 109 m²) and has an energy label C, which is typical for the area. The price per m² is about €2,885, slightly below the neighbourhood average of €3,039. So it's on the high side but not unreasonable given the size.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is the most common label in Paddepoel-Noord (44.4% of homes have label C). A C label means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. It's not as efficient as modern A-rated homes, but it's far from the worst.
How is the neighbourhood for safety?
Residents have mixed feelings. One review mentions not feeling very safe when walking out of the house, while others find it fine. The neighbourhood recorded 254 total crimes, but without context it's hard to judge. Overall, the average review score of 7.09 suggests most residents are reasonably satisfied.
What schools are nearby?
Primary school De Pendinghe is about 900 m away, and there are several other primary schools within a kilometre, including De Wegwijzer and Katholieke Daltonschool Bisschop Bekkers. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 1.1 km away. There's also a school for special education nearby.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood is well-connected by public transport, with several bus options as well.
What is the garden like?
The listing does not mention a garden. The plot size is 130 m², which is the same as the floor area, so it's likely the garden is included in that figure.
