Frequently asked questions

About Drinkwaterweg 581, Rotterdam

Is €425,000 a fair price for this apartment?

The asking price of €425,000 matches the median sale price in De Esch exactly. Recently sold apartments in the neighbourhood went for an average of €447,676, so this price is in line with the market. Given the 85 m² floor area and energy label C, it's a reasonable asking price.

What is the neighbourhood De Esch like?

De Esch is a quiet, green neighbourhood on the edge of Rotterdam, bordering the Kralingse Bos. It has a village-like feel with mostly low-rise buildings from the 1990s and 2000s. The population is diverse in age, with many singles and older residents. The area is moderately urban, so it's calm but still within reach of the city centre.

How far is the nearest train station?

The nearest train station is 3.4 km away, which is about a ten-minute cycle or a short bus ride. This makes commuting to Rotterdam Centraal or other cities feasible, though you'll need a bike or bus for the last leg.

What supermarkets are nearby?

What is the energy label C worth?

Energy label C means the apartment has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency. It's not the most modern, but it's far from the worst. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. In De Esch, most homes have labels A or B, so C is slightly below average for the area.

Are there schools within walking distance?

Yes, Basisschool de Esch is 625 m away, a five-minute walk. Several other primary schools, like Agnes and De Gouden Griffel, are within a ten-minute walk. Secondary schools are further, at 2.4 km, so you'd need a bike or bus for older children.
