Frequently asked questions
About Peppelweg 30C, Rotterdam
Was €315,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price was 41% below the average asking price in Schiebroek (€531,660), but the apartment was also 42% smaller than the neighbourhood average (106 m²). Given the 62 m² floor area and energy label D, the price was in line with the market for a smaller apartment in this area.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. This meant the home was not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs were likely to be higher than in a modern home. In Schiebroek, 38.2% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is common for the area.
How is the neighbourhood for families?
Schiebroek has a mix of households: about 36% are families with children, and 45% are single-person households. There are several schools nearby, including Melanchthon Mavo Schiebroek (secondary) and De Wilgenstam (primary), both within a short walk. However, some residents report nuisance from loitering youths and litter.
What public transport is available?
The nearest train station is 2.5 km away, so it is not within walking distance.
How long do homes typically stay on the market in Schiebroek?
In the past year, sold homes in Schiebroek had an average listing duration of 50 days. This suggests a reasonably active market, though not extremely fast.
What is the balcony like?
The listing mentioned a balcony, but no further details were provided. It is likely a standard balcony overlooking the street, typical for apartments of this era.
