Overschie, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1938 corner house on Zestienhovensekade has a floor area of 156 m² and a plot of 231 m². With an energy label D, it's a home with original features that could use some modernisation. The asking price of €825,000 is well above the neighbourhood average, partly because of the size, as it's 51% larger than the typical home in Overschie. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Rotterdam vary widely in price and condition.

The neighbourhood has around 6,700 residents, with a mix of families and singles. Many homes were built before 1945, giving the area a historic character. The neighbourhood Overschie is known for its social cohesion.

I help Bibi Fazal from the Welschenflats. She tries to give people with a small budget little groceries that residents of Overschie donate. She selflessly offers help with clothing, organises things, and sometimes cooks. Makes Christmas and Easter more fun and works together with Plus, Zeeman, the Protestant church, etc. The help is small-scale but more and more people join in. I think that's a boost. And HWD every Tuesday jumble sale and singers performing and working together with other parties that do something social for the elderly and young people. Thea and Chris cook 100 meals every week for lonely vulnerable elderly people on Tuesdays, free of charge. And recently second-hand clothing and bric-a-brac knick-knacks on Thursday in a little shop at Ameide Street, 10 to 2. So many good initiatives done through cooperation by volunteers. Top people. And the volunteers of Schoon en Heel Roelland, from the board and Leefbaar, who focus on what can be improved.

About Zestienhovensekade 509, Rotterdam

The price per square metre works out at roughly €5,288, which is above the neighbourhood average of €4,283. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the character of a 1930s corner house.
The home has energy label D. That means it's not the most efficient, you can expect higher energy costs compared to a modern home. In Overschie, about 38% of homes have a label D or lower, so it's not unusual for a house built in 1938. You may want to consider improvements like insulation or double glazing to bring the label up.
