De Plantage, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Lange Nieuwstraat sits in the heart of Schiedam's old centre, with a lively street scene and a park just steps away. At 97 m² it's a compact home, but the high ceilings and period details give it character. The price of €275,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €782,400, partly because the floor area is 59% smaller than the typical home in De Plantage. For context, this is one of the more affordable apartments in Schiedam.
De Plantage is a compact, urban neighbourhood with around 950 residents. It's a mix of ages, with a good number of families and older residents. The housing stock is mostly pre-war (83% built before 1945), and half of the homes have an energy label A, while the other half are D or lower, this apartment has label G, so heating costs will be significant. One resident describes it as a "Cosy" neighbourhood, adding: "Nice neighbourhood, could be cleaner sometimes but great neighbourhood!" That single review gives a score of 7.4 out of 10. For more on the area, see the De Plantage neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Dirk is a ten-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Sint Willibrordusschool and Sint Jozefschool are both a couple of streets away, and Basisschool de Singel is a five-minute walk. The park or garden is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. For broader context, the municipality of Schiedam offers a compact city centre with all amenities.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including 3D Makelaars B.V. The energy label G means you can expect high heating costs, but the price reflects that.

About Lange Nieuwstraat 33B1, Schiedam
The asking price of €275,000 is 65% below the average asking price in De Plantage (€782,400), but the apartment is also 59% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 234 m².

The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, 50% of homes have label A and 50% have label D or lower, so this apartment is on the less efficient end. You should budget for significant energy bills.
The train station is 1.5 km away, about a 15-20 minute walk or a short cycle.
