Lombardijen, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 93 m² apartment on Stuart Millpad sits in a quiet part of Lombardijen, a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the city bustle. With an energy label E, it's a home that could use some modernisation, but the price is keen: at €299,500 it's 28% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, making it a realistic entry point for buyers looking at apartments in Rotterdam.
Lombardijen is a largely post-war neighbourhood, with 80% of homes built between 1945 and 1970. It's a mixed area: 29% owner-occupied, the rest rental, and a third of households are families with children. Residents describe it as "completely quiet" and "a decent neighbourhood with everything at hand such as shops, hospital, public transport, etc." Another calls it "lively" with the same conveniences. The neighbourhood Lombardijen has a strong urban feel (over 2,600 addresses per km²), yet the park is just a couple of streets away.
Daily errands are easy: Jumbo and Lidl are both just around the corner, and SPAR express is a five-minute walk. For school runs, the Rotterdamse Schoolvereniging 11 is practically on your doorstep, and the Paus Joannesschool is a couple of minutes away. The municipality Rotterdam offers plenty of secondary schools within a ten-minute walk, including the Avicenna Lyceum.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Zuidstad Makelaars and also appears on Vastgoed Nederland, so it's available through several channels.

Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a shame that so much rubbish is thrown outside the bins in the neighbourhood, and that bulky waste is not reported by residents, resulting in a lot of litter and vermin.
Auto-translated to English by AIUnfortunately, Lombardijen has deteriorated significantly, especially in the last 10 years. You can see it visibly becoming impoverished, which is such a shame for such a beautiful neighbourhood that always had a reputation as a nice, clean, tidy neighbourhood. Unfortunately, both the residents and certainly the municipality of Rotterdam contribute to this. Safety is hard to find, drug nuisance, nuisance at the underground containers where all household items are just dumped. Rubbish on the street, which a number of residents try to keep up with by regularly picking it up, otherwise we see the rats and mice dancing merrily around the containers. And this is just a small impression of the waste pit of Rotterdam. The municipality must stop cutting costs and handing out fewer bonuses to the higher-ups, use money for the neighbourhoods and ensure that it becomes liveable again for the real Rotterdammers.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a decent neighbourhood but there could be improvements like more bins and more cleaning of the rubbish on the street.
