Groot IJsselmonde, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Vegelinsoord 108 sits in Groot IJsselmonde, a neighbourhood that feels more like a close-knit village than a city district. At €245,000, the asking price is 30% below the neighbourhood average of €350,608, a keen entry point for a home in this part of Rotterdam. The flat is one of many apartments in Rotterdam and offers 64 m² of living space, which is 33% smaller than the local average of 96 m².
Residents describe the area as a 'village within a big city'. One says: 'Cosy. I know many people in the neighbourhood.' Another adds: 'If necessary, people help each other. It's a village in a big city. If necessary, people do grocery shopping for each other.' Based on 15 reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.32 out of 10. The neighbourhood Groot IJsselmonde is densely populated with a mix of families and singles, and most homes were built between 1945 and 1970.
For your morning bread, PLUS is just around the corner, and Lidl and Dirk are a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Christelijke Basisschool Beatrix, is a five-minute walk, while secondary school MOVE Rotterdam Locatie Veenoord is also within walking distance. A park or garden is on your doorstep, and the municipality Rotterdam provides all the urban amenities you'd expect.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Van der Wiel Makelaardij & Taxaties. The energy label is F, so heating costs will be higher than in a more efficient home.

Auto-translated to English by AIOud IJsselmonde is a green neighbourhood with many elderly residents. People are friendly and helpful. It's not really safe here, for example Park de Twee Heuvelen is not lit at all and many strange people walk around. There is a lot of litter in the area and municipal bins are rarely cleaned, which means quite a lot of pests are roaming around.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt can best be described as multicultural, where most people seem to keep to themselves. If you strike up a conversation, they are surprised. The sense of community could be much better, but they are working hard on that. I quite enjoy it here. In terms of safety, I often see police patrolling, two shopping centres within walking distance, bus and tram right outside. Hygiene leaves something to be desired, especially rubbish dumped on the street. The greenery is left wild, supposedly for the insects, but it's just pure cost-cutting on green maintenance.

About Vegelinsoord 108, Rotterdam
The asking price of €245,000 is 30% below the average asking price in Groot IJsselmonde (€350,608) and also below the median of €277,250. Given that the flat is 64 m², smaller than the neighbourhood average of 96 m², the price per square metre works out at about €3,828, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €3,665 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but the smaller size means you pay a bit more per square metre.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have higher heating costs compared to a property with a better label. In Groot IJsselmonde, about 49% of homes have a label D or lower, so an F label is not uncommon in this area, but it's something to factor into your monthly budget.
For daily groceries, PLUS is just 536 metres away, about a five-minute walk. Lidl and Dirk are also within a ten-minute walk. There are plenty of shops in the area, and residents appreciate the good accessibility. One downside mentioned in reviews is that parking has become paid.

The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride.
