AreaA bright, energy-efficient apartment on Kruisplein
This apartment on Kruisplein sits right in the thick of Rotterdam's city centre. This listing does not state the year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €682,500, the asking price is 17% above the neighbourhood average, which is on the high side, especially given that the floor area of 82 m² is 31% smaller than the Oude Westen average. For context, the supply of apartments in Rotterdam is varied, but this one stands out for its A++ energy label.
The Oude Westen neighbourhood
The Oude Westen neighbourhood is a dense, urban area with a very strong city feel (address density of 6,709 addresses per km²). It's a mix of young and old: many single-person households, but also families with children. Based on two reviews, residents have mixed feelings. One resident calls it a "perfect spot" with "plenty of entertainment". Another says: "The neighbourhood has a lot of potential to live comfortably, but due to frequent nuisance from confused people on the street, drug deals, drug use, and even sleepers in the porches in winter, I often feel unsafe." They also note that the location is close to shops, well connected by public transport, and quiet on their street in the evenings.
Life on the street
For daily groceries, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's an AH to go even closer. A couple of streets away you'll find another Albert Heijn. For school runs, the primary school Augustinus is a five-minute walk, and the secondary school Havo/vwo voor Muziek en Dans is on your doorstep. The area is well connected by metro, tram and bus, and the central station is a ten-minute walk. The municipality of Rotterdam offers plenty of museums, restaurants and city-centre amenities within easy reach.

Frequently asked questions
About Kruisplein 21C27, Rotterdam
Is €682,500 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is 17% above the average asking price in the Oude Westen (€584,351). The floor area of 82 m² is 31% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 118 m². Given the smaller size and higher price per m², the price is on the high side compared to the local market. However, the A++ energy label is exceptional and may justify a premium.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In the Oude Westen, only 25% of homes have label A or better, so this is a standout feature.
How safe is the Oude Westen neighbourhood?
Resident reviews are mixed. One resident feels unsafe due to nuisance from confused people, drug deals and drug use, and heavy traffic.

It's worth considering your own comfort level with city-centre living.
