Kleinpolder, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Burgemeester Baumannlaan is a no-nonsense home in a lively part of Overschie. At €245,000 it is the cheapest of the 32 flats currently for sale in the neighbourhood and 42% below the average asking price of €421,094. That makes it a keen entry point into the Rotterdam market, especially for a buyer who is willing to put some work into an older property. For a sense of what else is available, have a look at apartments in Rotterdam.
Kleinpolder is a mixed, multicultural area where people have lived for years. One resident who has been there for 14 years says: 'I'll stay here with my daughter. There's quite a lot to do and shops are within walking distance. Public transport is central here for young and old.' Another describes it as 'multicultural' and notes that 'everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy.' The downside, according to both, is that not much is organised for young people and that cars with young people can cause nuisance at night. Still, the first resident sums it up: 'we enjoy it here.' The neighbourhood Kleinpolder is a typical post-war neighbourhood with mostly flats and a strong sense of community.
Daily errands are easy: Dirk is on your doorstep, Lidl is just around the corner and PLUS is a couple of streets away. For school runs, Openbare Daltonschool Overschie is a five-minute walk and Albert Schweitzer is just a bit further. The area has a real village feel within the city, with a park or public garden just around the corner. The municipality Rotterdam offers all the urban amenities you would expect, but here in Kleinpolder you are a bit removed from the busiest parts.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Woonvisie Makelaars, Funda and Vastgoed Nederland.

I've lived here for 14 years and I'll stay here with my daughter. Here in Overschie there's quite a lot to do and shops are within walking distance. Public transport is central here in Overschie for young and old. I don't have real contact with neighbours because I work and sometimes we cross paths. In our block we are there for each other if needed. A downside is that often at night cars are in the street with young people, which can be very annoying. For example... laughing gas, loud music, alcohol and drugs!! But to be honest, we enjoy it here..!!
Auto-translated to English by AIPlus points: everyone in the neighbourhood often chats with each other, which keeps the bond with the neighbours fun and cosy. Downside: it's a shame that not much is organised for the young people in the neighbourhood.

About Burgemeester Baumannlaan 134D, Rotterdam
At €245,000 this is the cheapest flat currently for sale in Kleinpolder and 42% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood. The average price per square metre in the area is €4,308, so for 58 m² that would come to roughly €250,000. Given the energy label F and the age of the building (1955), the price is on the low side and reflects the condition and energy efficiency.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In Kleinpolder, only about 26% of homes have a label D or lower, so this flat is among the least efficient. You can expect high heating costs and the home will likely need insulation upgrades to improve comfort and reduce bills.
Public transport is central, as one resident notes. The nearest train station is 3.3 km away, so you would rely on trams and buses for connections to Rotterdam city centre and other parts of the city. The area is well served by local bus and tram lines.
Based on two reviews, the neighbourhood is multicultural and friendly. One resident says everyone chats with each other and the bond with neighbours is fun and cosy. Another mentions that in their block people are there for each other if needed, though they do not have real contact because of work schedules.
Residents mention that at night cars with young people can cause nuisance, including loud music, alcohol and drugs. Also, not much is organised for young people in the neighbourhood. However, the overall sentiment is positive, with one resident saying 'we enjoy it here' after 14 years.
At 58 m², this flat is 41% smaller than the average of 99 m² for homes currently for sale in Kleinpolder. It is a compact two-bedroom apartment, typical of post-war construction in the neighbourhood.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Openbare Daltonschool Overschie (134 m), Albert Schweitzer (229 m) and CBS Het Podium (408 m). For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.7 km away.
