Zeeheldenbuurt-oost, Capelle aan den IJssel
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. A detached house from 1930, set on a plot of 5630 m², that is genuinely unusual so close to the city. The 409 m² of living space gives you room to spread out, and the C energy label means it is reasonably efficient for its age. At €2,495,000, the price is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Capelle aan den IJssel, but the sheer size of the plot and the house itself sets it apart.

It is a strongly urban area (address density 2061), yet there is a park or public garden right on your doorstep. No resident reviews are available for this street, but the neighbourhood Zeeheldenbuurt-oost profile suggests a settled, family-oriented community.

About Nijverheidstraat 297, Capelle Aan Den Ijssel
The price is on the high side compared to other detached homes in Capelle aan den IJssel, but the plot of 5630 m² is exceptional. A home with this much land so close to Rotterdam is rare, so the premium reflects that. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the space and privacy.
Zeeheldenbuurt-oost is a small, quiet residential area with mostly owner-occupied homes. It has a strong urban feel in terms of address density, but there is a park right at your doorstep. The population is a mix of families and older residents, and the streets are peaceful.
The nearest train station is 5.1 km away. That is about a ten-minute drive or a 20-minute cycle. The area is better suited to car travel for longer journeys, though bus connections are available.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Christelijke Basisschool de Fontein (625 m), Kindcentrum OBS West (738 m), and Admiraal De Ruyterschool (1.4 km). For secondary education, Comenius College Krimpen is 1.3 km away.
The plot is 5630 m², which includes the house and the surrounding land. The listing does not specify a separate garden, but with that much land, there is plenty of outdoor space. You would need to see the exact layout to know how it is divided.
The energy label is C. That is average for a home from 1930, it is not the most efficient, but it is not the worst either. You can expect reasonable insulation and heating costs, but improvements like double glazing or a modern heating system could bring it up.
