Bergpolder, Rotterdam

At €250,000, the asking price is 36% below the neighbourhood average of €390,956, which makes it a keen entry point into Rotterdam's housing market. For context, the average price per m² in Bergpolder is €5,120, and this home comes in well under that. You can compare it with other apartments in Rotterdam.
Bergpolder is a mixed bag, and residents are honest about it. One review says: "Since I've been living here, I've come across friendly people." Another resident describes it as a "quiet neighbourhood with room for improvement," noting that "gentrification is underway" and "you can literally meet anyone here, from yuppie to student to family to asylum seeker." A third review is less positive, calling it an "unfriendly neighbourhood" with damp houses. Based on five reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 6.54 out of 10. The area is densely built (5,956 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of pre-war apartments. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Bergpolder.

Montessori Mavo secondary school is a couple of streets away, and Imelda primary school is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of young adults (25-45 years), so it's a lively area. A park or garden is a couple of streets away, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby.

Since I've been living here, I've come across friendly people.
Auto-translated to English by AIBergpolder has improved significantly in recent years. Many apartments have been renovated, there is an influx of nice new residents, and the location is ideal. You do notice a clear difference in lifestyle between the old and new residents, but that is not disturbing in itself. Gentrification is underway, following the surrounding neighbourhoods, but is somewhat controlled by the large stock of (social) rental homes in the area. The result is that you can literally meet anyone here, from yuppie to student to family to asylum seeker. Everyone lives together harmoniously, but within their own bubble. Houses are old, very old, so they often need some love if they haven't been renovated yet. But the location is perfect, and there are many beautiful inner gardens that compensate for the bare streets. Everything you need is within walking distance. I think the arrival of the Hofbogenpark will give the neighbourhood a further boost. The greenery is still a bit sparse in some places in the area.

Auto-translated to English by AIFairly quiet living, though expensive, the Schieweg is often messy and there should be more benches in the neighbourhood. Here and there some green spots to enjoy nature. Supermarkets are a bit of a walk away, but there's a chip shop and a convenience store on every street corner. The Schieweg also has its own tram stop with frequent trams. Buses are scarce in the area.

About Schieweg 3-01, Rotterdam
The asking price of €250,000 is 36% below the average asking price in Bergpolder (€390,956) and also below the median of €375,000. Given the 68 m² floor area, that works out to about €3,676 per m², while the neighbourhood average is €5,120 per m². So it is priced keenly, especially for a pre-war apartment in a central Rotterdam neighbourhood.
The energy label is D. That is not particularly efficient, so you can expect higher energy bills compared to a more modern home. In Bergpolder, 33.3% of homes have label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area. The home was built in 1928, so insulation and heating are likely original or only partially upgraded.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride.
