Hillegersberg Noord · 3054 GL Rotterdam
A quiet spot in Hillegersberg Noord
This apartment on Freericksplaats sits in a peaceful part of Rotterdam, where the streets are lined with trees and the pace of life feels relaxed.

The last known rent of €3,250 per month was on the high side compared with the average for apartments in Rotterdam, which sat around €3,347, but the size and the setting help explain that. This home has not been online since 5 October 2026.
