About Hoveniersstraat 9C, Rotterdam
The asking price is 17% below the neighbourhood average of €386,095, and also below the median of €350,000. Given the 58 m² floor area and F energy label, it's priced keenly compared to other flats in Rubroek. However, the low energy label means higher monthly energy costs, so factor that into your budget.
Rubroek is a very urban, multicultural area with a high population density. It's popular with young people and singles, over half of households are one-person. The resident review mentions a mix of cultures and good neighbourly relations, but also some nuisance from youngsters and parking issues. The area has a lively, bustling feel.
The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, about a 15-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to other parts of Rotterdam or further afield.
Albert Heijn is 271 m away, Jumbo 322 m, and Dirk 472 m, all within a few minutes' walk. For primary education, Waalse School and OBS Crooswijk are both 214 m away, and a secondary school is 0.9 km. There are also several childcare options nearby.
An F label indicates poor energy efficiency. The home will have higher heating and electricity costs compared to a more efficient property. In Rubroek, about 34.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not uncommon in the area, but it's worth budgeting for higher bills.
The listing does not mention a parking spot. The resident review notes limited control over parking spaces and nuisance from youngsters. In this dense urban area, street parking may be challenging.
