Rubroek, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis first-floor apartment on Admiraal de Ruyterweg sits in the heart of Rubroek, a neighbourhood where cultures mix and the city hums. At 75 m² with an E label, it's a solid, no-frills home that needs some energy love. The asking price of €350,000 matches the neighbourhood median exactly, so it's in line with the market for apartments in Rotterdam.
Rubroek is dense and urban, over 8,000 residents packed into a lively grid. Most households are single-person (around 60%), and the streets are full of young and middle-aged adults. One resident sums it up: "Many cultures together, good people get along well here." The only downside they mention is parking: "too little control over the parking spaces, a lot of nuisance from youngsters with those balloons." It's a neighbourhood with character, not without its rough edges. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Rubroek.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Dirk is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, Waalse School and OBS Crooswijk, are both just around the corner, making the school run a short walk. The municipality Rotterdam keeps the city running, with parks and restaurants within a five-minute walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including vandeVijver Makelaardij and Vastgoed Nederland.

About Admiraal de Ruyterweg 28E, Rotterdam
The asking price of €350,000 is exactly the median price for apartments in Rubroek. Given the 75 m² floor area, that works out to about €4,667 per m², which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €5,202 per m². So it's priced in line with the market, not a bargain, but not overpriced either.
Energy label E means the apartment is not very efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. In Rubroek, about 34.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area. If you're concerned about energy bills, you might consider improvements like better insulation or a more efficient heating system.
Rubroek is very urban, with an address density of over 8,000 per km². You'll find supermarkets like Albert Heijn (169 m), Jumbo (471 m), and Dirk (603 m) within easy walking distance. There are also several primary schools nearby, including Waalse School and OBS Crooswijk, both just 214 m away. The train station is 1.2 km away, so about a 15-minute walk.
According to a resident review, parking can be a challenge: "too little control over the parking spaces, a lot of nuisance from youngsters with those balloons." This suggests that on-street parking may be tight and occasionally subject to disturbances. It's worth checking with the municipality about permit options.
