Everyone feels at home and you can go anywhere.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for about four years now and I think it's a nice area to live in. Actually, everything you need is in the neighbourhood: supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, train and tram station. A bit more green would certainly be an addition, and it's also a shame that the metro is a bit of a bike ride away. Lately, I do notice more litter on the streets and more confused/addicted people on the streets, which gives a less safe feeling. I don't get harassed very often myself, but I wouldn't let children play/walk around here alone. In terms of green space, I would appreciate a nice park like in Blijdorp, but if extra trees are planted next to the busy roads, I think that would already help a lot.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe Listkwartier is a beautiful part of Rotterdam North, where most streets were not bombed. Gorgeous streets and houses, and the neighbourhood is truly up-and-coming. Lots of new hip spots, cosy eateries and good restaurants. In terms of safety, it's improving rapidly. Every now and then (too) fast-driving antisocial cars, but safety is getting better and better.

About Lisstraat 8A01, Rotterdam
The asking price of €350,000 is 31% below the average asking price in Liskwartier (€507,862) and well below the median of €489,000. However, the apartment is also 28% smaller than the neighbourhood average (72 m² vs 100 m²). Given the compact size and the fact that similar homes in the area sell for an average of €466,693, the price appears keen for a buyer looking for a smaller home in a popular neighbourhood.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. In Liskwartier, about 27% of homes have label C, while 31% have D or lower. A C label means reasonable energy efficiency, you can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not as efficient as a modern home. The building dates from 1912, so original features like high ceilings may be present, but insulation may be less effective than in newer builds.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood does have a tram station nearby, and bus connections are available. For longer journeys, Rotterdam Centraal is about 3 km away, reachable by bike or public transport.
