Rotterdamsedijk 215A

The asking price of €269,000 is 36% below the average asking price in Glasbuurt (€419,500) and sits close to the neighbourhood median of €267,000. Given the 65 m² floor area and energy label G, the price is keen compared to other listings in the area. However, the low energy efficiency means you'll have higher monthly heating costs, so factor that into your total housing budget.

Glasbuurt is a very urban neighbourhood with a high density of addresses (over 5,000 per km²). It has a young population, with the largest group aged 25-45, and many single-person households. The area has a mix of pre-war and post-war buildings, and about half of the homes are owner-occupied. It's a lively, compact area with shops and amenities within walking distance.

The nearest train station is 1.2 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk. That makes it feasible for commuting to Rotterdam or The Hague without needing a car.

There are several supermarkets within walking distance: Dirk and Lidl are both about 650 m away (a couple of streets away), and Albert Heijn is 800 m away (a ten-minute walk). SPAR is also close at 782 m. So daily groceries are easy to pick up on foot.

There are several primary schools nearby: De Kubus (239 m), Basisschool Kaleidoscoop (282 m), and Basisschool de Singel (414 m) are all within a short walk. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 2 km away, so older children would need to cycle or take public transport.

Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating costs, especially in winter. The home was built in 1950 and likely has poor insulation and single glazing. Budget for significant energy bills and consider potential improvements like double glazing or insulation, though these come with upfront costs.
