I've been living in this neighbourhood for 5 years, and I've felt at home here since day 1 when we moved here! It's a cosy neighbourhood with lots of dogs, cats and families with young children! There are plenty of grass patches where I can walk my dog. Close to the metro and Alexandrium. So it's very accessible! I think it's a really nice neighbourhood!!!
Auto-translated to English by AII haven't lived here very long, but the type of housing isn't that great. Otherwise, it's quite a green neighbourhood with the Kralingse Plas nearby and lots of trees.

About Hoofdweg 129, Rotterdam
The asking price is 80% above the neighbourhood average of €382,986, but this home is much larger (144 m² vs 91 m² average) and a detached house, a rare type in Het Lage Land, where only 19% of homes are single-family. The price per m² works out at about €4,792, compared to the neighbourhood average of €4,330. Given the plot size and property type, the price is on the high side but reflects the home's unique features.
The home has an F energy label, which is poor. In the neighbourhood, 35.7% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is at the bottom end. Expect high heating costs, especially in winter. The home was built in 1932 and likely lacks modern insulation. You may want to budget for energy improvements, but the exact costs depend on usage and future upgrades.
Het Lage Land is popular with families. Residents mention lots of children and dogs, and there are plenty of grass patches. The area has 1,415 households with children and several primary schools within walking distance. The Kralingse Plas and parks nearby offer outdoor space.
