About Scheepstimmermanslaan 21B02, Rotterdam
The asking price of €350,000 is 61% below the neighbourhood average of €906,868, but the apartment is also smaller than average (75 m² vs 145 m²). The price per m² works out to about €4,667, which is below the neighbourhood average of €7,728 per m². So it's priced keenly relative to the local market.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war building. It means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, about 38% of homes have label A+ and 33% have label A, so this home is less efficient than many newer ones.
The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn just 52 metres away, literally on your doorstep. A SPAR is 601 metres away, about a seven-minute walk. So daily groceries are very convenient.
There are several primary schools within walking distance: Rotterdamse Schoolvereniging at 379 metres and Openbare Basisschool Het Landje at 390 metres. For secondary education, the Erasmiaans Gymnasium is 677 metres away. All are within a ten-minute walk.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. The neighbourhood is well connected by tram and bus as well.
The neighbourhood recorded 410 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively high for a city centre area. However, it's a busy urban neighbourhood with a lot of activity, so it's typical for a central location.
