Frequently asked questions
About Kleiweg 197, Rotterdam
Is €850,000 a fair price for this home?
The asking price is 66% above the neighbourhood average of €512,949, but this home is also 66% larger than the average (178 m² vs 107 m²). It also has an energy label A, which is rare in an area where 45% of homes have label D or lower. So while the price is high, the size and efficiency justify it.
How is the neighbourhood for families?
Hillegersberg Zuid has a mix of households: about 32% are families with children, and 44% are singles. Residents call it safe and clean, with good schools nearby. The primary school De Bergse Zonnebloem is a five-minute walk away, and there are several playgrounds and parks within walking distance.
What is the public transport like?
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk. Residents note that connections to the centre are good, but public transport to surrounding neighbourhoods like Kralingen could be better. There is no metro within walking distance, but cycling is popular.
