The home itself
Built in 1959, this ground-floor apartment has two rooms, one bedroom and one bathroom, all on a single floor.

It is situated close to public transport, which is a practical plus for getting around without a car. The energy label is C, so heating costs will be moderate but not minimal.
Life in the Nolensbuurt
Residents of the wider district give their living experience an average score of 6.29, based on four reviews. One resident says: "It's a normal neighbourhood," noting that parking is often full and that the sense of community has faded, though they appreciate being close to shops and schools. Another resident mentions the windmills and the jenever museum as fun local highlights, adding that "Schiedam is nice." The neighbourhood has around 2,000 residents, with a mix of ages and household types. The reviews reflect a place with practical conveniences but also some social friction, so it is worth weighing those perspectives. For more detail, see the Nolensbuurt neighbourhood.
