Blijdorp, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1938 apartment on Schepenstraat sits in the heart of Blijdorp, a leafy neighbourhood in Rotterdam. With 120 m² of living space, it is 29% larger than the average home in the area. The energy label is D, so heating costs are something to keep an eye on. At €500,000, the asking price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €450,000, but the extra space explains much of that. For context, apartments in Rotterdam vary widely in price and size.
Blijdorp is a highly urban area (over 5,000 addresses per km²) but feels surprisingly green thanks to the nearby Vroesenpark and Diergaarde Blijdorp. Residents appreciate the mix of ages and the friendly atmosphere. One resident says: "Quiet neighbourhood where neighbours know and help each other when needed." Another adds: "Cosy, quiet neighbourhood with nice people. People still greet each other on the street." The neighbourhood Blijdorp has many singles and young professionals, with an average household size of 1.7.
For groceries, Dirk is just on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Schools are also close: Wolfert College (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and primary school De Provenier is just around the corner. The Vroesenpark is a couple of streets away, perfect for a stroll. The municipality Rotterdam offers extensive amenities, though the nearest train station is a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Max Makelaars B.V. and Pararius.

Auto-translated to English by AIit's a nice neighbourhood, right next to Vroesepark! In my opinion, there's not much to do for young people, for that you have to go to the city centre.

About Schepenstraat 110C, Rotterdam
The asking price of €500,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €450,000 and the average of €467,000. However, this apartment is 120 m², which is 29% larger than the average home in Blijdorp (93 m²). The price per m² works out to about €4,167, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,245 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money.
Blijdorp is a green, urban neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. Residents describe it as quiet and sociable, with neighbours greeting each other on the street. The Vroesenpark and Diergaarde Blijdorp are nearby. The area has many singles and young professionals, and public transport is good, with a metro station close by.
The nearest supermarket is Dirk, just 39 metres away on the same street. Albert Heijn is 95 metres away, and PLUS is about 523 metres. So daily shopping is very convenient.
Several schools are within walking distance. Wolfert College (secondary) is 170 metres away, and primary school De Provenier is 256 metres. There are also other secondary schools like Mavo Centraal (281 metres) and special education at Klein Coolstraat (188 metres).
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with label A or B. In Blijdorp, 44% of homes have label D or lower, so this is common for the area.
Public transport is good. The nearest metro station is within walking distance, and the train station is 2.2 km away. Bus stops are also nearby, making it easy to get around Rotterdam.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The apartment is in a building from 1938, so it likely does not have private outdoor space, but the Vroesenpark is just 200 metres away.
