Frequently asked questions
About Teylerstraat 5, Schiedam
Is €2,650 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent is about 19% above the neighbourhood average of €2,222, which puts it on the high side. The floor area of 55 m² is also smaller than the average of 85 m² in the area. You are paying a premium for the central location and the modern energy label, which is unusual for a building from 1928.
What does the A+++ energy label mean for this home?
An A+++ label is the most efficient rating available, which means the home is very energy efficient. This is notable for a property built in 1928, as most buildings from that era have much lower labels. You can expect relatively low energy costs compared to older homes, though the exact amount depends on your usage.
How close is the train station?
The train station is about 300 metres from the apartment, which is a short walk of a few minutes. This makes the location particularly convenient for anyone commuting to Rotterdam or other cities in the region. The station is one of the main reasons the neighbourhood is so well connected.
What is the neighbourhood like for daily life?
The Stationsbuurt is a dense, urban area with a high address density, so most daily needs are within walking distance. A large supermarket is about 300 metres away, and there are several smaller shops even closer. The area has a young profile, with nearly half of residents aged between 25 and 45, and many single-person households.
Are there good schools nearby?
Yes, there are several schools within a short walk. The primary school De Peperklip is about 200 metres away, and the secondary school Lentiz | LIFE College is around 300 metres. A couple of other primary schools are also within 500 metres, so school runs on foot are very manageable.
How does the rent compare to other rentals in the area?
The neighbourhood has a wide range of rental prices, from €1,350 to €4,500, with an average of €2,222. At €2,650, this apartment is above the average but below the top end. The price per square metre works out higher than the neighbourhood average, reflecting the premium for the location and the energy label.
