Binnenstad, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis 1930s apartment on Herenpad sits right in the middle of the Binnenstad, with the lively market square and the historic port just a short walk away. At 48 m² it's a compact home, but the location makes up for it. The energy label is F, so heating costs will be something to factor in. With a price of €250,000, this flat is 49% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, a keen entry point into the city centre. For context, apartments in Schiedam sell across a wide range.
The Binnenstad is Schiedam's historic core, with 2,250 residents living in a very dense, urban setting (over 5,400 addresses per km²). It's a young area, the largest age group is 25 to 45, and many households are single-person. One resident who has lived here for 14 years says: "In recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased." That's just one review, but it gives a flavour of the trade-offs you get with a central location. The neighbourhood Binnenstad is undeniably lively.
For groceries, Dirk is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: Basisschool de Singel and Basisschool Kaleidoscoop. The nearest train station is a ten-minute walk away, and the municipality Schiedam offers all the city amenities you'd expect.
At the time of writing the home is listed via several channels, including D&S Makelaars and Klip & van Wijk Rockanje B.V.

Herenpad 6B, Schiedam
Satisfactory · 1 resident
I've lived here for 14 years, very special because my father was born on this street. But in recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. They gave it a makeover but that doesn't improve anything. More people live here and also different people at the same addresses who simply don't belong here. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased.

About Herenpad 6B, Schiedam
At €250,000, this flat is priced 49% below the average asking price in the Binnenstad (€489,714). However, it's also 59% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 117 m². Given the compact size and the energy label F, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small city-centre apartment.
The Binnenstad is a very dense, urban area with a young population. It's lively and central, but one long-term resident mentions increased noise and nuisance in recent years. The neighbourhood has a mix of old and new, with many pre-war buildings.
Dirk is just 72 metres away, so you can pop out for groceries in seconds. Albert Heijn is also close at 243 metres, and there are several other supermarkets within walking distance.
Two primary schools are within a few minutes' walk: Basisschool de Singel at 191 metres and Basisschool Kaleidoscoop at 344 metres. Secondary schools are a bit further, at 1.6 km.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The energy label is F, which is poor. You can expect high heating costs, especially in winter. The home likely has single glazing and little insulation. It's worth budgeting for energy bills.
The floor area is 48 m², which typically accommodates one or two rooms, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
