I've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years, and I've felt at home here since day 1 when we moved here! It's a cosy neighbourhood with lots of dogs, cats and families with young children! There are plenty of grass patches where I can walk my dog. Close to the metro and Alexandrium. So it's very accessible! I think it's a really nice neighbourhood!!!
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but the type of housing isn't that great. Otherwise, it's quite a green neighbourhood with the Kralingse Plas nearby and lots of trees.

About Philip Vingboonsstraat 188, Rotterdam
The asking price of €279,000 is 27% below the average asking price in Het Lage Land, which is €382,986. However, the apartment is also smaller than average (63 m² vs 91 m²). Given the lower floor area and the energy label F, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact apartment in this neighbourhood.
The energy label is F, which is on the lower end of the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. The majority of homes in the neighbourhood (35.7%) have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bus ride. The metro is closer, making public transport accessible.
Het Lage Land is a green, cosy neighbourhood with lots of families and young children. Residents appreciate the nearby Kralingse Plas and the many grass patches for walking dogs. It's well connected with the metro and Alexandrium shopping centre close by.
