Auto-translated to English by AIit's a nice neighbourhood, right next to Vroesepark! In my opinion, there's not much to do for young people, for that you have to go to the city centre.

About Gordelweg 224BGR, Rotterdam
The asking price of €350,000 is 25% below the average asking price in Blijdorp (€467,000) and also below the median of €450,000. Given the 63 m² floor area, the price per m² comes to about €5,556, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,245 per m². So the price is keen for the area, but the smaller size means a higher per-square-metre cost.
The home has energy label D. This is a common label for pre-war buildings in Blijdorp, where 44% of homes have label D or lower. A D label means moderate energy efficiency; heating costs will be higher than in a modern home, but it's not the worst. You can expect reasonable insulation but no triple glazing or heat pump.
