NeighbourhoodThis 1910 terraced house on Westerhoutstraat has a generous 216 m² of living space and a 201 m² plot, making it one of the larger homes in the area. The energy label C means it's reasonably efficient, though a house of this age will need some attention. At €1,995 per month, the rent is in line with the market for terraced houses in Haarlem.
Bosch en Vaart is a quiet, green pocket of Haarlem with a mix of families and older residents. Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the proximity to the Haarlemmerhout forest and the general calm. One resident describes it as "cool" and notes "everything close to a nice forest, not much hassle." Another says it's "lively but anonymous", lively because of the many young people and amenities, but anonymous because people don't know each other beyond their immediate neighbours. The area has a high proportion of owner-occupied homes (81%) and a strong urban feel (address density 2,481 per km²). For more context, see the Bosch en Vaart neighbourhood.
Daily shopping is easy: Vomar is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza, Aldi and Albert Heijn are all within a ten-minute walk. For school runs, Obs Bos en Vaart primary school is a couple of streets away, and the International School Haarlem is also within walking distance. Secondary schools are even closer, ECL (havo, atheneum and gymnasium) is just a few minutes' walk, and Lyceum Sancta Maria is a short stroll. The Haarlemmerhout park is on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Haarlem.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including ViaDaan and Pararius.

By lively I mean that there are many hip young people living here and there are many amenities and infrastructure in the neighbourhood, but it is anonymous because people don't really know each other. You live there and know your neighbours, but you don't really know your neighbours' neighbours. Many people move often.
