A pre-war apartment in the heart of Rotterdam
This apartment on Vierambachtsstraat 55B sits in the Nieuwe Westen, a lively part of Delfshaven where the streets are full of pre-war housing and daily life happens on the pavement. The asking price of €320,000 is 33% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €479,798, which puts it on the keen side compared with other homes currently for sale. The apartment itself dates from 1910 and carries an energy label A, an efficient label that should keep heating costs down.

Inside the home
According to the agent, this apartment has three rooms, two bedrooms and one bathroom. The living area is listed as 72 m² in the agent's description, while the BAG registration records 74 m². The home was built in 1910, so it has the solid bones of a pre-war building, and the energy label A suggests it performs well on efficiency. There is no mention of a garden, balcony or garage in the listing, so outdoor space is likely limited to what the neighbourhood offers.
