NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Willem Beukelszstraat sits in the heart of Spangen, a neighbourhood with a lively, urban feel. At €200,000, the asking price is 43% below the neighbourhood average of €352,444, which makes it a keen entry point into Rotterdam's housing market.

I've lived here for 12 years and we almost never had any problems
Auto-translated to English by AII've lived in Rotterdam West my whole life. Since 2013 I've been living in Spangen with my children. We really enjoy living here. I have a nice house with a large garden and I have nice neighbours. What I do find a shame is the amount of litter and rubbish and large groups of youngsters on the playgrounds for the children with scooters and fatbikes who also leave all their rubbish behind and 'chase away' the children. There is a lot to do in the neighbourhood for children and the metro/tram station is within walking distance. There should be more greenery and more facilities for older youth. More bins on the street instead of just waste containers.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived my whole life (45 years) in Rotterdam West and wouldn't want to leave. Personally, I've had no negative experiences in the neighbourhood. Of course, the area was worse in my youth, but even then I had a good time. It's better now, but I do notice that a lot is deteriorating again. In terms of litter on the streets and young people looking for trouble. That's a shame, because it's so nice here. There should be more greenery and more neighbourhood watch, and I think more facilities for young people. Because the neighbourhood and playground work hardly does anything anymore, there's too little for young people aged about 12 to 20 to do, and they end up hanging around and doing silly things out of boredom. A kind of community centre or youth club where they can 'hang out' and do things together could provide a solution. For the younger children, there's plenty to do here, but the mess left by the older youth is not nice. Otherwise, I'm very satisfied here.

About Willem Beukelszstraat 6A, Rotterdam
The asking price of €200,000 is 43% below the average asking price in Spangen (€352,444) and also below the median of €365,000. However, the apartment is smaller than average (52 m² vs 88 m²). Given the lower floor area, the price per m² (€3,846) is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,018, so it is priced keenly for its size.
The energy label is D. In Spangen, 40% of homes for sale have label A and 6.7% have A+, so this home is less efficient than much of the local stock. Label D means moderate energy performance, so heating and electricity costs will be higher than in a well-insulated home, but no specific amounts are available.
Spangen has a mix of households: about 41% are families with children, 46% are single-person households, and 19% are couples without children. Residents mention that there is plenty for children to do, though some note litter and groups of youngsters on scooters. One resident says: 'I really enjoy living here. I have a nice house with a large garden and nice neighbours.'
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle.
In the past period, sold homes in Spangen took an average of 57 days to sell. That is a moderate pace, suggesting a balanced market where buyers have time to consider.
This is an apartment built in 1926. In Spangen, 69.4% of homes for sale were built before 1945, so this is typical for the area. The building likely has classic features but may need modernisation.
