De Plantage, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Lange Nieuwstraat sits in the heart of Schiedam, where the streets are lined with old buildings and a lively city pulse. At 65 m² it's compact, but the 1935 bones give it character. The price of €289,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because the home is smaller than most in the area. For context, you can compare it with other apartments in Schiedam.
De Plantage is a compact urban neighbourhood with a mix of ages and households. One resident describes it as "cosy" and says: "Nice neighbourhood, could be cleaner sometimes but great neighbourhood!" That single review gives a glimpse of a place that's appreciated for its atmosphere, even if the streets aren't spotless. The area is densely built and very lively, with many singles and couples. Most homes are pre-war, and half have energy label A, so this C-label apartment is a bit less efficient than some neighbours.
For your morning bread run, Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Dirk is a couple of streets away, and there are several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. Families have a choice of primary schools: Sint Willibrordusschool is a couple of streets away, Sint Jozefschool is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool de Singel is also within easy reach. The municipality Schiedam offers a compact city centre with restaurants and a park on your doorstep.

About Lange Nieuwstraat 7A, Schiedam
The asking price is €289,000, which is 63% below the average asking price in De Plantage (€782,400). However, this apartment is also much smaller than the neighbourhood average (65 m² vs 234 m²). The price per m² works out to about €4,446, which is above the neighbourhood average of €3,895 per m². So while the total price is low, you're paying a premium for the smaller size.
The energy label is C. That means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but it's not as efficient as a modern A-label home. You can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, half of the homes have label A, so this one is a bit below the local standard.
The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, which is about a 15,20 minute walk or a short bike ride. That gives you direct connections to Rotterdam and other cities.
