Jaersveltstraat 14A
Oud Charlois · 3082 SG Rotterdam
A pre-war apartment with a story
This 1939 apartment on Jaersveltstraat in Oud Charlois has a lived-in feel that comes with age. At 99 m² it was a generous size for a flat, and the last known price of €259,000 was keen, 20% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €323,536. That puts it in a different league from most apartments in Rotterdam. This home has not been online since 28 July 2026.
Oud Charlois: a mixed bag
The Oud Charlois neighbourhood is densely built and very urban, with 3,525 addresses per km². Residents give it a 6.9 out of 10, based on six reviews. One calls it "Ghetto" and mentions "many junkies and psychiatric people. Lots of shouting. Lots of rubbish." Another says "Great neighbourhood." A third review is more detailed: "It's not Charlois anymore. I've been harassed several times... Accessibility is good, the only positive." So opinions are divided. The area has many one-person households and a mix of incomes.
Daily life on the street
For your morning bread, MCD is just around the corner. Aldi and PLUS are a ten-minute walk away. Obs Charlois primary school is on your doorstep, and the Wilhelminaschool is a couple of streets away. For secondary education, the nearest is 0.7 km. A park or public garden is a couple of streets away. The municipality of Rotterdam runs the show here.

Frequently asked questions
About Jaersveltstraat 14A, Rotterdam
Was €259,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price was €259,000, which was 20% below the average asking price of €323,536 in Oud Charlois. The median price in the neighbourhood was €300,000, so this flat was priced on the low side.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. That is an official registration from EP-Online. Label C is in the middle of the scale, not the most efficient, but not the least either. Expect moderate energy costs, but the label alone didn't tell you about the insulation or heating system.
How is public transport in Oud Charlois?
The nearest train station is 4.9 km away, so it's not within walking distance. The area is well served by buses and trams given its urban density.
What is the neighbourhood like for families?
Oud Charlois has a mix of households: about 29% have children, and 23% are couples without children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Obs Charlois at 104 m and the Wilhelminaschool at 303 m. However, some resident reviews mention concerns about safety and the school environment.
How many rooms does this apartment have?
The floor area is 99 m², but without room count you cannot assume a layout. You would need to check the floor plan or visit the property.
Is there a garden or outdoor space?
The listing did not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given either, so it is not possible to say whether there is any private outdoor space.
What is the parking situation?
In a dense urban neighbourhood like Oud Charlois (address density 3,525 per km²), street parking is common but may be limited. Permit zones are likely, but you would need to check with the municipality.
