Oude Bovendijk 246
Schieveen, Rotterdam
AreaA dike house with room to breathe
This is a home with a story. Built in 1898 as a dike house, it stands on a quiet road with open views, a setting the agent describes as rural and free. The plot is generous at 1,115 m², which gives the property a sense of space that is rare this close to a city. The asking price of €850,000 works out at €5,380 per m² based on the agent's floor area, which is on the high side compared with the market. For context, detached houses in Rotterdam give you a sense of what is available in the wider area. This listing does not state the energy label, so that information is missing from the picture.

Step inside and you find a spacious layout across two floors, with seven rooms in total. There are six bedrooms and one bathroom, so there is plenty of room for a large household. The living area is listed at 168 m² according to the BAG registration, while the agent lists 158 m². The volume comes to 555 m³. Outside, the garden wraps around the house, with a front, side and rear garden, plus a detached wooden garage. The home has partial double glazing and a central heating boiler, and it is offered as full ownership. The agent describes it as a single-family, detached dike house.
The Schieveen neighbourhood
Schieveen is a small community, home to around 330 people, and it feels like a world apart from the bustle of Rotterdam. Residents of the wider Overschie district give their area an average score of 8.42 out of 10, based on five reviews. One resident says: "A very nice neighbourhood. The airport is nearby, but you don't hear a thing. Zestienhovenpark is great for walking or jogging. Many families with children live here. There is a lot of greenery and you see many birds." Another adds: "Always people who are open to you no matter what happens. Also, every Christmas we always go outside for a cosy cup of hot chocolate." The reviews reflect a green, family-oriented area, though one resident notes that young people sometimes gather in the street at night.
