Nieuwe Werk is a small, dense neighbourhood with a strong city-centre feel. With over 4,000 addresses per km², it's one of the most urban spots in Rotterdam. The population is young and mobile: most households are single-person, and the largest age group is 25 to 45. There are few families with children, so the vibe is more professional and social than family-oriented. The neighbourhood has a mix of high-end rentals and owner-occupied apartments, and the average rent here is €2,927, so this home is relatively affordable for the area. To get a broader picture, you can explore the Nieuwe Werk neighbourhood page.
For your morning bread and groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner. A SPAR is a couple of streets away, and another Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk. For families, there are two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Openbare Basisschool Het Landje and Rotterdamse Schoolvereniging. Secondary education is also close, with Erasmiaans Gymnasium. The neighbourhood has a park or garden just 0.2 km away, perfect for a quick break. All this is part of what makes the municipality of Rotterdam such a convenient place to live.

The energy label is A++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with excellent insulation and likely a heat pump or similar modern system. Your heating and electricity costs will be very low compared to older properties. The building was completed in 2022, so it meets the latest sustainability standards.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. Rotterdam Central Station is the main hub, but there are also metro and tram stops closer by, such as Leuvehaven and Beurs, which are within walking distance.
Nieuwe Werk is a central, busy neighbourhood. The total number of recorded crimes in the area is 410, which is relatively high for a small neighbourhood, but this is typical for a city-centre location with many bars, restaurants and nightlife. The area is generally safe during the day, and the presence of the police and security is noticeable around the main squares.
Yes, there are several. The nearest Albert Heijn is just 158 metres away, so you can do your daily shopping on foot. A SPAR is at 658 metres, and another Albert Heijn is at 780 metres. For a larger supermarket, you might need to walk a bit further, but the basics are all within a five-minute walk.

For secondary education, Erasmiaans Gymnasium is 840 metres away. There are also many other schools within a short distance, making it convenient for families with children.
The listing does not mention a garden or private outdoor space. As an apartment in a high-rise tower, it is unlikely to have a private garden. However, there is a park or public garden just 0.2 km away, and the neighbourhood has several squares and waterfront promenades for outdoor relaxation.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms. With a floor area of 89 m², it is likely to have two or three rooms, but you would need to check the exact layout with the agent. The property type is an apartment, so it is a single-level home.
