About Jonker Fransstraat 71C, Rotterdam
The asking price of €320,000 is 17% below the average asking price in Rubroek (€386,095) and also below the median of €350,000. Given the 73 m² floor area and E energy label, it's priced keenly compared to other apartments in the neighbourhood. However, the energy label means higher heating costs, so factor that in.
Rubroek is a very urban area (address density 8,093 per km²) with mostly single-person households. Residents appreciate the multicultural vibe and good neighbourly relations, though parking can be tight and there's some nuisance from youngsters. It's a lively, central part of Rotterdam.
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 just 232 m away, Jumbo at 402 m, and Dirk at 590 m. So daily groceries are within easy walking distance.
Waalse School and OBS Crooswijk are both 244 m away, and Koningin Wilhelminaschool is 462 m. All are primary schools, so it's handy for families with young children.
Energy label E means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. In Rubroek, about 34.5% of homes have label D or lower, so it's not unusual, but it's worth budgeting for upgrades.
