Koninginnebuurt, Haarlem
NeighbourhoodThis 1890s townhouse on Wagenweg sits in Haarlem's leafy Koninginnebuurt, a neighbourhood of grand old homes and tree-lined streets. With 204 m² of living space and an energy label C, it's a substantial family home that still needs some updating. The asking price of €895,000 is 15% below the neighbourhood average of €1,056,115, making it a keen entry into this sought-after street. For context, terraced houses in Haarlem vary widely in price and condition.
The neighbourhood Koninginnebuurt is one of Haarlem's most desirable addresses, with wide avenues and monumental architecture. It's a very urban area (over 4,400 addresses per km²), yet the Haarlemmerhout park is just a couple of streets away. Based on three reviews, opinions are mixed: one resident calls it "good" (8.75), while another describes "Unroyal nuisance", drug dealing, fireworks, noisy parties, parking on the pavement, cargo bike terror, damp damage and a municipality that ignores residents. "You wouldn't expect it in the most expensive neighbourhood of Haarlem, but it's an everyday occurrence." The neighbourhood is home to many families and singles, with average incomes above the city norm.
Daily errands are easy: Ekoplaza is just around the corner for organic groceries, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. For bread and pastries, you'll find several bakeries within a few streets. Schools are close by, Obs Bos en Vaart primary school is on your doorstep, and the ECL secondary school (havo, atheneum, gymnasium) is a couple of streets away. The municipality Haarlem maintains the area well, with good public lighting and pavement upkeep.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Van Groenigen Makelaardij B.V. and is also available through other channels.
