Delfshaven, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1939 apartment on the Willem Buytewechstraat sits in the lively Delfshaven area of Rotterdam. With 83 m² of living space and an energy label D, it offers a solid base in a neighbourhood that's very much alive. The asking price of €319,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €461,878, and well below the median of €399,000, making it a relatively affordable entry into this part of the city. For context, apartments in Rotterdam vary widely, but this one stands out on price.
Delfshaven is a dense, urban area with a very strong city feel (over 5,000 addresses per km²). It's a young neighbourhood: the largest age group is 25 to 45, and most households are single-person. Two residents reviewed the area: one calls it a "decent neighbourhood but nothing special, nice to have a park nearby", noting some nuisance from youths and litter. Another says it's the "best fun neighbourhood!" and appreciates the cosy atmosphere near a school and the green view. The municipality Rotterdam is a diverse city, and Delfshaven reflects that with its mix of old and new.
For groceries, you have a Jumbo just around the corner and an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. Schools are close: Harbour IBSR Bilingual primary school is on your doorstep, and Middelland College secondary school is a five-minute walk. A park or public garden is a couple of streets away, and there's a restaurant within a few steps. The nearest train station is 3.3 km away, so you'd rely on tram or bus for longer journeys.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Voorberg NVM Makelaars, who are the main agent.

It's all fine but nothing special. There is some nuisance from youths, and often litter on the street.
Auto-translated to English by AII live in Coolhaven! Opposite a school, which is really nice because it always gives a cosy atmosphere and I don't really have much trouble with noise. I live in a studio and prefer neighbours and a green view; at first there was quite a lot of construction but now that has also decreased a lot.
