Frequently asked questions
About Abraham Kuyperlaan 57B01, Rotterdam
Is €319,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €319,000 is 18% below the average asking price in Bergpolder (€390,956) and also below the median of €375,000. Given the 70 m² floor area, the price per m² comes to about €4,557, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €5,120 per m². This makes it a relatively affordable option in the area.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The apartment has energy label D. This is a common label for pre-war buildings in Bergpolder, where over 92% of homes were built before 1945. Label D means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a modern home but lower than in a G-rated property.
How is the neighbourhood Bergpolder?
Bergpolder is a diverse, densely populated neighbourhood with many young adults and singles. Residents describe it as friendly and improving, with a mix of old and new residents. Some note that homes are old and may need renovation, but the location is praised for its proximity to amenities. The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses (5,956 per km²), making it very urban.
What amenities are nearby?
Daily shopping is convenient: a PLUS supermarket is 300 metres away, and an Albert Heijn is about 500 metres. Several primary schools are within a five-minute walk, including Dominicus and OBS de Blijberg. A park or public garden is just 300 metres away. The nearest train station is 2.2 km from the home.
How old is the building and what condition is it in?
The apartment was built in 1933, typical for Bergpolder where 92% of homes date from before 1945. The building is old, so it may require some maintenance. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it is worth checking the condition of the roof, windows, and installations.
Is this a good option for a first-time buyer?
With a price below the neighbourhood average and a compact 70 m² floor area, this apartment could be suitable for a first-time buyer looking for an affordable entry into Rotterdam. However, the older building and energy label D mean you should budget for potential maintenance and higher energy costs.
