About Sterrenbuurt

Sterrenbuurt is a neighbourhood in Haarlem in the Noord district. Almost all buildings predate the last decade; very little new construction. Density is distinctly urban: streets densely built, homes close together. Single-family homes dominate the streetscape.

The area lies within Haarlem's nationally-protected cityscape. Buy-to-let restrictions apply to part of the housing stock. Owner-occupiers get priority.
