A ground-floor apartment with a large garden
This ground-floor apartment on Van Beethovensingel 51 sits in the Molenlaankwartier, a leafy part of Rotterdam where the streets feel calm and the water is close by. The asking price of €550,000 is keen compared with the neighbourhood average asking price of €911,850, which makes it stand out in this part of the city. For context, the average asking price for apartments in Rotterdam sits at a different level entirely, so this home offers a relatively accessible entry point into the area.
The apartment was built in 1958 and has an energy label E, which means you can expect higher energy costs than with more efficient labels. The home is offered via multiple channels, and the listing includes a garden, a balcony, and a central heating boiler.
The home itself
This three-room apartment has two bedrooms and one bathroom, all on a single floor. The living area is 84 m² according to the agent, while the BAG registration lists 82 m². The home is on the ground floor and comes with a rear garden of 306 m² facing southwest, plus a front and side garden, and a balcony. The property is freehold, so you own the land outright. The agent notes double glazing and a central heating boiler, and there is a homeowners' association fee of €245 per month.
The Molenlaankwartier neighbourhood
Residents of the wider district give their living environment an average score of 7.5 out of 10, based on 22 reviews. One resident describes it as "like a small village, you can cycle or walk everywhere nicely," and notes that public transport makes it easy to get around. Another resident, however, says the neighbourhood is "very difficult to reach" and that this is tiring as a student. A third resident mentions that there is little contact with neighbours and that the area has declined over nine years, with noise from cars at night. These are the views of people living in the district, not necessarily in this specific street. The neighbourhood itself has around 8,230 residents, and about 40% of households have children.
