Binnenstad, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Hoogstraat sits right in the middle of the historic centre, with the lively street life just outside your door. At 56 m² it's a compact home, but with an A energy label it's efficient to run. The asking price of €275,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because the flat is smaller than many others in the area. For more context, have a look at other apartments in Schiedam.
The neighbourhood Binnenstad is densely built and very central, with over 5,400 addresses per km². It's a young area: many residents are between 25 and 45, and most households are single people. One resident who has lived here for 14 years says: "In recent years the neighbourhood has deteriorated. It's very noisy and the nuisance has increased." That's just one review, but it gives a flavour of the trade-offs that come with living in a busy city centre.
For groceries you have an Albert Heijn just around the corner and a Dirk a couple of streets away. Primary schools are within walking distance: Basisschool de Singel is a five-minute walk, and IKC Blink is about ten minutes away. The municipality Schiedam offers all the usual city amenities, with restaurants and a library also close by.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including vandeVijver Makelaardij, Funda and Vastgoed Nederland.

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 Hoogstraat 150B, Schiedam
The asking price is 44% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€489,714), but the flat is also 52% smaller than the average home there. Given the compact size and central location, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small apartment in the centre of Schiedam.
Binnenstad is a very urban area with a high density of addresses. It's popular with young singles and couples. The one resident review mentions noise and nuisance, so it's a lively, busy environment. The area has good access to shops and public transport, with a train station 1.3 km away.
The home has an A energy label, which is very efficient. That means you can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have an A label, so this flat is above average in terms of efficiency.
Albert Heijn is 205 metres away, Dirk is 254 metres, and there are several other supermarkets within a short walk. For primary education, Basisschool de Singel is 487 metres away, and IKC Blink is 625 metres. Secondary schools are about 1.6 km from the home.
The building dates from 1906, so it's over a century old. The home has been modernised to achieve an A energy label, which is unusual for a property of that age. In the neighbourhood, 70% of homes were built before 1945.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk. That makes it feasible for commuting, though not on your doorstep. Bus connections are also available in the area.
