Frequently asked questions
About Prinses Margrietlaan 24B, Rotterdam
Was €550,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €550,000 was above the neighbourhood median of €450,000 and the average sold price of €440,923. However, this apartment is larger than average (95 m² vs 107 m² average for sold homes), and pre-war apartments in this area tend to command a premium. The price per m² worked out to about €5,789, which was higher than the neighbourhood average of €4,961 per m², so it was on the high side but not out of line for a property of this character.
How is the public transport connection?
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. Residents note that the connection to the centre is good, but public transport links to surrounding neighbourhoods like Kralingen could be improved. There is no metro within walking distance, but buses are available. The area is also well-suited for cycling, with many amenities accessible by bike.
What is the neighbourhood like for families?
Hillegersberg Zuid is popular with families. About 16% of the population is under 15, and there are several primary schools within walking distance, such as Tarcisius (338 m) and De Fontein (835 m). The area is described as safe and clean, with a park nearby. However, some residents mention that roads like Kleiweg can be busy and less safe for children due to unclear zebra crossings.
What shops and amenities are nearby?
For daily groceries, Hoogvliet is 825 m away, Lidl 881 m, and Dirk 972 m. There are also several restaurants within a short walk (the nearest is 0.3 km). A GP practice is 0.4 km away, and a park is 0.5 km. For a wider range of shops, the city centre is easily reachable by bike or train.
How energy efficient is this apartment?
The apartment has an energy label C, which is average for a pre-war building. In the neighbourhood, about 28.6% of homes have label C, while 39.6% have D or lower. Label C meant reasonable insulation and heating costs, but not as efficient as modern homes. You can expect moderate energy bills.
What is the crime rate like in Hillegersberg Zuid?
The neighbourhood recorded 599 total crimes in the latest data, which for a population of 8,370 works out to about 72 per 1,000 residents. This is moderate for an urban area. Residents generally feel safe, with one review describing it as a "safe, clean neighbourhood."
How long do homes typically stay on the market here?
Sold homes in the neighbourhood spent an average of 42 days on the market, which was fairly typical for Rotterdam. This suggested a balanced market where well-priced homes sell within a month or two.
