Botenbuurt, Schiedam
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Buis in Schiedam's Botenbuurt feels generous from the start. With 128 m² of living space and a 129 m² plot, it is noticeably roomier than most homes in the neighbourhood. The energy label A+ is exceptional here, none of the other homes for sale in the area reach that level. At €515,000, the asking price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €325,000, but the size and efficiency explain why. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Schiedam vary widely in price and condition.
Botenbuurt is a calm residential area with a mix of families and older residents.

Most homes are owner-occupied (61%), and the area was built entirely between 1970 and 1990. Learn more about the neighbourhood Botenbuurt.

How residents experience their municipality
The parking is really too full, the people are very antisocial. You really get nothing from the neighbours here, they just ignore you and walk on. What is a plus point is that you live close to shops and schools, which is very handy and easily accessible. You really miss the sense of community in the neighbourhood because that used to be the case. There are also many people walking around with dangerous loose dogs like pitbulls that recently bit another dog. That is also dangerous for the residents themselves.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is fun with the windmills, whisper boat, jenever museum. There are fun things to do, come and have a look, Schiedam is nice.
