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 Sonoystraat 26A, Rotterdam
The asking price is €499,500, which is about 7% above the average sale price in Blijdorp (€467,000). However, this apartment is larger than average (112 m² vs 93 m²), so the price per m² (€4,460) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €5,245. That makes it a reasonable deal for the space you get.
