Frequently asked questions
About 's-Gravendijkwal 91D, Rotterdam
Is €289,500 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €289,500 is 47% below the neighbourhood average of €548,291. However, the floor area of 61 m² is 46% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 112 m². The price per square metre works out at about €4,746, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,124 per m². So it is priced keenly for the area, but the smaller size explains part of the difference.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, about 20% of homes have a label D or lower, while over 60% have A, B or C. Label D means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a well-insulated home, but it is not the worst rating.
How is the public transport in Middelland?
The neighbourhood is well connected. One resident mentions four different trams, two bus lines and a metro within a five-minute walk. The train station is 1.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. So you can easily reach other parts of Rotterdam and beyond without a car.
What is the neighbourhood like for families?
Middelland has a mix of residents, including families with children. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and playgrounds are mentioned by residents. The neighbourhood also has a square with organised activities and a wijkpaleis that fosters community. However, the average household size is 1.7, and about 24% of households have children, so it is not exclusively family-oriented.
How safe is Middelland?
Residents describe the neighbourhood as "very safe and comfortable." The total number of crimes recorded in the area is 1,214, but without context per capita, it is hard to compare. The resident reviews are positive about safety, and the council cleans the streets every morning, keeping it tidy.
What shops and amenities are nearby?
There are several supermarkets within a few minutes' walk: SPAR express, Ekoplaza, Albert Heijn and Aldi. Restaurants are just around the corner (0.3 km), and a GP practice is 0.4 km away. A library is 1.6 km away, and a park or square is 0.3 km away. So daily errands are easily done on foot.
How old is the building and what does that mean?
The apartment was built in 1896, so it is over 125 years old. In the neighbourhood, 83.7% of homes were built before 1945, so this is typical. Older buildings often have high ceilings and character, but may need more maintenance and have lower energy efficiency. The energy label D reflects that.
Is there a garden or outdoor space?
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The plot size is not stated either. So it is likely that this apartment does not have private outdoor space, which is common for apartments in this dense urban area.
