About Wijnruitstraat 85, Hoogvliet Rotterdam
The asking price is 35% below the average asking price in Hoogvliet Noord (€440,692), which makes it look very competitive. However, the apartment is also 30% smaller than the neighbourhood average (74 m² vs 105 m²). Given the smaller size and the fact that it's an older building (1964) with label C, the price seems in line with what you'd expect for a compact flat in this area.
Hoogvliet Noord is a mixed area with many families and a high proportion of single-family homes. Residents describe it as fairly quiet, though summer evenings can be noisy. Public transport is not great, buses run infrequently, and some streets have litter. On the plus side, there are many schools and community centres. The neighbourhood has a large population and a decent park nearby.
Several supermarkets are within a ten-minute walk: Hoogvliet (954 m), Lidl (972 m), Dirk (1007 m) and an AH XL (1020 m). That gives you plenty of choice for daily shopping.
A primary school, Basisschool Het Prisma, is about 612 m away, a five-minute walk. A secondary school, Accent Praktijkonderwijs Hoogvliet, is even closer at 315 m. There are also other primary schools within a kilometre or two.
Residents say public transport is not good, buses run too infrequently. The nearest train station is 12.1 km away, so you'd rely on buses or a car for longer journeys. The area is moderately urban (omgevingsadressendichtheid 1692), so it's not a city centre.
The apartment has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-tier, you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 37.1% of homes have label A+ and 22.6% have label A, so this home is slightly below the local average in efficiency.
The apartment was built in 1964, so it's over 60 years old. In Hoogvliet Noord, 35.6% of homes were built between 1945 and 1970, so this is a typical age for the area.
