Schiebroek, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Ahornlaan sits in a leafy part of Rotterdam North. At 59 m² it's compact, and with an energy label D you'll want to budget for heating. The asking price of €295,000 is well below the neighbourhood average of €531,660, partly because the home is smaller than typical for the area. For context, the apartments in Rotterdam market shows a wide range of prices.

During my daily walk from Kastanjesingel to Rhododendronplein, I took photos and made a collage of them. To my regret, this mess has been lying there for weeks and is only getting worse. Can't we provide willing residents with a litter picker and rubbish bags and/or reward the deposit can collectors with bags of rubbish? In addition, cycling on the pavement has become common practice, even on Sundays. When I step out of the garden with my dog, I have to look left and right to avoid being run over. And this has already happened once!

Auto-translated to English by AII was born here and still live here. Unfortunately, the neighbourhood has deteriorated a lot over the years. In the past, you could talk to anyone; Schiebroek was like a village community. People considered each other. People kept their neighbourhood tidy, etc. Nowadays, many of the current residents have moved away because they no longer feel it's their neighbourhood or have moved due to old age, passed away. Especially the increase in many residents who come from elsewhere, from other districts, countries. They have no connection with the area, have their own rules, customs, etc. They don't like nature, animals, etc., they think it's dirty. While those animals have belonged here for years and should stay, in the canals, trees, etc. Some don't care about anything, throw all sorts of things on the street, just next to the container, consider no one. As a result, unfortunately, much has become run-down, also more crime. The greenery is disappearing more and more, a lot of building going on while it was known as the green neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AII like the neighbourhood. There are plenty of playgrounds and a petting zoo here. I'm a single mother, so it's really nice for my little daughter.

About Ahornlaan 71, Rotterdam
The asking price is 45% below the average asking price in Schiebroek (€531,660), but the apartment is also 44% smaller than the neighbourhood average (106 m²). Given the compact size and energy label D, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a 59 m² apartment from 1960 in this area.
The energy label is D, which is common for a 1960s apartment. It means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs will be higher than for a modern property.

The nearest train station is 2.5 km away. That's about a 30-minute walk or a short bus ride. The listing does not specify bus connections, but Rotterdam's public transport network is extensive.
