A bright and spacious apartment on Boterstraat

This two-bedroom apartment on Boterstraat sits right in the heart of Schiedam, with a lively street scene and all the city's amenities on your doorstep. At 107 m² it's generously sized, and with an A+++ energy label it's exceptionally efficient. The rent of €2,550 is on the high side, 32% above the neighbourhood average, but for a home this size and quality it's in line with what you'd expect for apartments in Schiedam.

The Binnenstad neighbourhood

The neighbourhood Binnenstad is the historic core of Schiedam, with a high density of addresses and a very urban feel. It's a mixed area with many singles and young adults, but also families. One resident who has lived here for 14 years says: "I've lived here for 14 years, very special because my father was born on this street. But in recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased." That's based on one review, so it's a single perspective.

Life on the street

For daily shopping, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Coop and Dirk are a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Basisschool de Singel is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool Kaleidoscoop is about the same. The municipality Schiedam has a compact centre, so most amenities are close by.
