Noordereiland, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1899 apartment on Prins Hendrikkade sits on the island in the Maas, with a lively waterfront feel. At 97 m² and energy label B, it's a solid size with decent efficiency. The asking price of €539,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €495,208, but the island's character and the home's original features may justify it.

I've lived here for years with great pleasure, occasionally chat with people I know, and never have any problems with the neighbours either." The neighbourhood Noordereiland has a very high urban density (5,349 addresses per km²), so it's busy but friendly. The resident adds: "It's so much nicer to live when you get along with each other as neighbours."

There are several primary schools within walking distance: De Pijler is a couple of streets away, and Openbare Basisschool Het Landje is a ten-minute walk.

Very good · 1 resident
My experience with my neighbourhood is very good. I've lived here for years with great pleasure, occasionally chat with people I know, and never have any problems with the neighbours either. We always greet each other as neighbours. It's so much nicer to live when you get along with each other as neighbours. I am very satisfied with the neighbourhood and the people who live here. And yes, everywhere there is sometimes something, you can't prevent that. But I wouldn't want to leave the Noordereiland anymore.

About Prins Hendrikkade 135A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €539,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €495,208 and the median of €450,000. However, the apartment is 97 m² with energy label B, and the average price per m² in the area is €4,916, so this home works out at about €5,557 per m². That's a premium, but the historic character and island location may explain it.
