You see more attention for people on a tight budget." They describe a network of volunteers running a weekly jumble sale, cooking free meals for the elderly, and a small second-hand shop, all run by locals. It's a place where people look out for each other. The neighbourhood Overschie has a mix of pre-war homes and newer builds, with a strong sense of history.
For your morning bread run, PLUS is just around the corner, and Dirk is a couple of streets away. Lidl is a five-minute walk.

I help Bibi Fazal from the Welschenflats. She tries to give people with a small budget little groceries that residents of Overschie donate. She selflessly offers help with clothing, organises things, and sometimes cooks. Makes Christmas and Easter more fun and works together with Plus, Zeeman, the Protestant church, etc. The help is small-scale but more and more people join in. I think that's a boost. And HWD every Tuesday jumble sale and singers performing and working together with other parties that do something social for the elderly and young people. Thea and Chris cook 100 meals every week for lonely vulnerable elderly people on Tuesdays, free of charge. And recently second-hand clothing and bric-a-brac knick-knacks on Thursday in a little shop at Ameide Street, 10 to 2. So many good initiatives done through cooperation by volunteers. Top people. And the volunteers of Schoon en Heel Roelland, from the board and Leefbaar, who focus on what can be improved.

About Martinus Dorpiusstraat 10, Rotterdam
The asking price is 31% above the neighbourhood average of €426,107, but the home is also 44% larger than the typical Overschie home (148 m² vs 103 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €3,784, which is below the neighbourhood average of €4,283 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money compared to other homes in the area.
The home has energy label D. This is a common rating for a house built in 1933. In Overschie, 37.7% of homes have label D or lower, so this is typical for the area. You can expect moderate energy costs, but improvements like better insulation or double glazing could bring the label up over time.
Overschie has a strong family feel, with 1,055 households with children out of a total of 2,290 households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including CBS De Regenboog (400 m) and Openbare Daltonschool Overschie (456 m). Residents highlight the community spirit, with volunteers organising activities and support for families on a tight budget.
The nearest train station is 3.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance but is a short bike ride or bus trip.
The plot size is 107 m², but the listing does not specify whether there is a garden, terrace, or other outdoor space.
The house was built in 1933 and has energy label D, which suggests it may need some modernisation. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so it's worth viewing to assess the condition of the roof, windows, and heating system. The neighbourhood has many pre-war homes (81.7% built before 1945), so this is typical for the area.
The listing does not state the number of bedrooms. With 148 m² of floor space over multiple floors, it likely has at least three bedrooms, but you would need to confirm the exact layout with the agent.
