Liskwartier, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Schiebroeksestraat sits in one of Rotterdam-Noord's most characterful streets, with original 1909 details and a C energy label. At €315,000, the asking price is 38% below the neighbourhood average of €507,862, a keen entry point for a compact home in a popular area.

Everyone feels at home and you can go anywhere.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here for about four years now and I think it's a nice area to live in. Actually, everything you need is in the neighbourhood: supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, train and tram station. A bit more green would certainly be an addition, and it's also a shame that the metro is a bit of a bike ride away. Lately, I do notice more litter on the streets and more confused/addicted people on the streets, which gives a less safe feeling. I don't get harassed very often myself, but I wouldn't let children play/walk around here alone. In terms of green space, I would appreciate a nice park like in Blijdorp, but if extra trees are planted next to the busy roads, I think that would already help a lot.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe Listkwartier is a beautiful part of Rotterdam North, where most streets were not bombed. Gorgeous streets and houses, and the neighbourhood is truly up-and-coming. Lots of new hip spots, cosy eateries and good restaurants. In terms of safety, it's improving rapidly. Every now and then (too) fast-driving antisocial cars, but safety is getting better and better.

About Schiebroeksestraat 12B, Rotterdam
The asking price is 38% below the neighbourhood average of €507,862, which makes it keen compared to other homes in Liskwartier. However, the floor area is 47% smaller than the local average, so the price per square metre is in line with the market. Given the compact size and pre-war character, it's priced to attract buyers looking for an affordable entry into a popular area.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war home. It means the property has some insulation but is not as efficient as modern builds. You can expect moderate heating costs, but no specific amounts are available from the listing.
