Bergpolder, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 102 m² apartment on Groen van Prinstererstraat sits in Bergpolder, a neighbourhood in north Rotterdam where the streets are lined with early 20th-century architecture. The home dates from 1933 and has an energy label G, so heating costs will be high. At €585,000, the asking price is 50% above the neighbourhood average of €390,956, which is on the high side, partly because it's a larger-than-average apartment in a sought-after part of town. For context, you can compare it with other apartments in Rotterdam.
Bergpolder has changed a lot in recent years. One resident says: 'Bergpolder has improved significantly in recent years. Many apartments have been renovated, there is an influx of nice new residents, and the location is ideal.' Another notes: 'You do notice a clear difference in lifestyle between the old and new residents, but that is not disturbing in itself. Gentrification is underway, following the surrounding neighbourhoods, but is somewhat controlled by the large stock of (social) rental homes in the area.' The neighbourhood is densely populated, over 8,200 residents, and mostly consists of flats. It's a very urban area, with an address density of nearly 6,000 per km². The neighbourhood Bergpolder has a young population: over half are between 25 and 45, and many households are single-person.
For your morning bread, PLUS is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Dominicus is on your doorstep, and OBS de Blijberg is a five-minute walk. For secondary education, the Grafisch Lyceum Rotterdam is also a couple of streets away. The municipality Rotterdam offers plenty of parks and restaurants nearby, the nearest park is just around the corner.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including MAARTENMakelaardij Rotterdam B.V. and Funda.

Since I've been living here, I've come across friendly people.
Auto-translated to English by AIBergpolder has improved significantly in recent years. Many apartments have been renovated, there is an influx of nice new residents, and the location is ideal. You do notice a clear difference in lifestyle between the old and new residents, but that is not disturbing in itself. Gentrification is underway, following the surrounding neighbourhoods, but is somewhat controlled by the large stock of (social) rental homes in the area. The result is that you can literally meet anyone here, from yuppie to student to family to asylum seeker. Everyone lives together harmoniously, but within their own bubble. Houses are old, very old, so they often need some love if they haven't been renovated yet. But the location is perfect, and there are many beautiful inner gardens that compensate for the bare streets. Everything you need is within walking distance. I think the arrival of the Hofbogenpark will give the neighbourhood a further boost. The greenery is still a bit sparse in some places in the area.

Auto-translated to English by AIFairly quiet living, though expensive, the Schieweg is often messy and there should be more benches in the neighbourhood. Here and there some green spots to enjoy nature. Supermarkets are a bit of a walk away, but there's a chip shop and a convenience store on every street corner. The Schieweg also has its own tram stop with frequent trams. Buses are scarce in the area.

About Groen van Prinstererstraat 38A, Rotterdam
The asking price is 50% above the neighbourhood average of €390,956, but this apartment is larger (102 m²) than the typical home in Bergpolder (average 83 m²). The price per m² works out at about €5,735, which is above the neighbourhood average of €5,120 per m². So it's on the high side, but you're paying for extra space and a pre-war character.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. That means the home is not well insulated and will have high heating costs. In Bergpolder, about 33% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is at the bottom end. You should expect significant energy bills, especially in winter.
Residents describe it as a mixed, improving area. One says: 'Since I've been living here, I've come across friendly people.' Another notes gentrification is underway, with a mix of yuppies, students, families and asylum seekers living harmoniously but in their own bubbles.
