Schepenstraat 56B
Blijdorp, Rotterdam
AreaA classic city apartment with a warm feel
This apartment on Schepenstraat in Blijdorp has a calm, residential atmosphere that feels a world away from the city bustle, yet you are right in Rotterdam. The 118 m² floor area gives plenty of room to spread out, and the 1932 building brings character. At €775,000, the price is 61% above the neighbourhood average of €480,364, so it is on the high side, but then you are paying for a larger-than-average home in a sought-after street. For context, see other apartments in Rotterdam.
Blijdorp: green, quiet and connected
Blijdorp is a leafy pocket of Rotterdam where neighbours still greet each other. One resident calls it a "quiet neighbourhood where neighbours know and help each other when needed," while another describes it as "cosy, quiet neighbourhood with nice people." A third notes it is "peaceful living in the city" but adds there is "little sense of community." Based on five reviews, the overall score is 7.55. The area is densely populated (over 10,000 residents) and mostly consists of flats, with many single-person households. For more on the area, see the Blijdorp neighbourhood.
Daily life on the street
Your morning bread run is a couple of streets away to PLUS or Dirk. For a bigger shop, Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Schools are close too: Montessori Mavo is on your doorstep, and primary school De Margriet is a couple of streets away. The Vroesenpark is a five-minute walk, and Diergaarde Blijdorp is nearby.
