About Den Bommelsestraat 6, Schiedam
The asking price of €275,000 is 20% below the average asking price in the Eilandenbuurt (€342,111) and also below the median of €350,000. Given the energy label F and the age of the house, the price reflects the need for potential energy improvements. It's a competitive entry point for a terraced house in Schiedam.
Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect higher gas and electricity bills compared to a well-insulated home. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or B; 75% are label D or lower. Investing in insulation, double glazing or a new heating system could improve the label and reduce running costs.
The Eilandenbuurt has 295 households with children, and 46% of homes are single-family houses. There are two primary schools within walking distance: Sint Willibrordusschool (83 m) and Sint Jozefschool (729 m). The area is moderately urban but quiet, with a park just 400 m away.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride. For daily commuting, a bicycle is practical.
The house was built in 1888, so it's over 130 years old. The energy label F suggests that modern insulation and heating systems are lacking. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should budget for updates.
The plot is 56 m², which typically includes a small garden or courtyard, but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden. The nearest park or public garden is 400 m away.
