About Waldhoorn 54, Capelle Aan Den Ijssel
The asking price of €265,000 is 39% below the average asking price in the Instrumentenbuurt (€433,333). However, this studio is also 61% smaller than the neighbourhood average (44 m² vs 113 m²). Given the compact size and the fact that only three homes are for sale in the area, the price seems in line with what you'd expect for a studio of this size.

Auto-translated to English by AIIs deteriorating very quickly and little is being done about it
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood. With residents who care about each other. We go to clubhouse Klavier to dance, bingo, bands. In our building they eat together, bingo, communal garden. Which we use and arrange together. Beautiful forest with the playground. Enjoy a cosy coffee at the Portuguese place Meesterwerk or pancake house, great neighbourhood!
Auto-translated to English by AIPros=the neighbourhood is very calming People are friendly (if you're new in the neighbourhood they want to get to know you right away) Never any arguments Only cosiness (people laugh with you and eventually you'll organise parties together) Cons= Often bothered by mice Often bothered by the wall that is open and when it rains it comes through and then it rains on my bed But for the rest it's a very quiet, cosy neighbourhood and atmosphere I give the neighbourhood a 9.7
Auto-translated to English by AIGenerally a very nice neighbourhood to live in, but much more could really be done about the surroundings.

How residents experience their municipality
There are more facilities than indicated here. There is a vet in the neighbourhood itself and a church within walking distance. There is a dog walking area nearby. As for hygiene, there is always rubbish next to the bins, especially bulky waste. People just dump it without reporting it. There is little or no control over this. It doesn't look good for the neighbourhood. What I find strange is that there is also an anti-squat house in the area.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is directly linked to Rotterdam, given the metro, and often feels more like an extension of the city. There are plenty of amenities. The children here are really very cheeky, I think. Lately, much more noise nuisance and just strange things on the street. Saw a guy doing karaoke at 1 AM outside my door recently. Almost everything is adequate, but it's getting weirder and weirder. I feel safe enough to walk around at night, but as soon as I see someone, I'm also quick to leave.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a place to settle down. Very safe, very green and peaceful.
