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 Professor Rankestraat 17, Groningen
The asking price of €419,000 is 46% above the average asking price in the Gorechtbuurt, which is €287,315. However, this is a terraced house with a 147 m² plot, while many homes in the neighbourhood are smaller flats. The price per m² is about €5,442, compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,701 per m². So it's on the high side, but the plot size and property type are less common here.
The home has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient, not the best, but far from the worst. You can expect moderate heating costs. In the neighbourhood, about 23% of homes have label C, while 43% have a lower label (D or below). So this home is slightly above average for the area.
Very convenient. Jumbo is just 150 metres away, so you can pop out for forgotten items in a couple of minutes. AH to go is about 300 metres, and Lidl and Albert Heijn are within a ten-minute walk. There's also a restaurant 500 metres away. So daily errands are easy on foot or by bike.
There are several schools within walking distance. IKC Borgman Oosterpark (primary) is about 600 metres away, and De Kleine Wereld (primary) is 800 metres. For secondary education, the H.N. Werkman Stadslyceum (havo/atheneum/lyceum) is 550 metres, and Praedinius Gymnasium is 620 metres. So school runs are manageable without a car.
The train station is 2 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute bike ride. That's a reasonable distance for commuting or day trips.
