Kop van Zuid, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Landverhuizersplein sits in the Kop van Zuid, Rotterdam's sleek riverside district. At 527 m² it is exceptionally spacious, and with a price of €4,950,000 it is by far the most expensive of the 36 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, 435% above the average asking price of €926,056. That puts it in a league of its own, and it reflects the sheer size and quality of the property. For context, apartments in Rotterdam at this level are rare.
Kop van Zuid is a young, high-density neighbourhood built mostly after 1990. With 2,800 residents and a very high address density of 4,639 per km², it feels intensely urban. Most households are single-person (1,120), and the average household size is just 1.5. The area has a strong concentration of 25-to-45-year-olds (1,445), and almost all homes are flats, no family houses here. There are no neighbourhood reviews available, so the character is best understood from the statistics: a dynamic, city-centre extension with a modern skyline. The Kop van Zuid neighbourhood is one of Rotterdam's most distinctive post-war developments.
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a ten-minute walk away. A couple of streets away you will find primary school De Schalm Katendrecht and secondary schools Young Rotterdam vmbo and De Passie Rotterdam. The nearest GP is on your doorstep, and restaurants are even closer. The central station is 2.3 km away, so you would typically take the tram or metro. The municipality of Rotterdam keeps the area well connected.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Kolpa Qualis International Realty and Kolpa van der Hoek Oostvoorne.

About Landverhuizersplein 149, Rotterdam
At €4,950,000 this is the most expensive home currently for sale in Kop van Zuid, and 435% above the neighbourhood average asking price of €926,056. However, with 527 m² of floor space it is also 293% larger than the average home in the area (134 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €9,393, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,711 per m². Whether that is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the premium location.
At 527 m² this apartment is nearly three times the neighbourhood average of 134 m². It is the largest home currently on the market in Kop van Zuid, and the price reflects that. Most homes in the area are flats, and the average floor area for sale is 134 m², so this is an exceptional property in terms of sheer square footage.
The home has energy label B, which is good but not the best. In Kop van Zuid, 74.5% of homes have label A and 17.6% have A+ or better, so label B is slightly below the neighbourhood standard. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but not the lowest possible bills. The home was built in 2005, so it should have modern insulation and double glazing.

The nearest primary school is De Schalm Katendrecht at 450 metres. For secondary education, Young Rotterdam vmbo is 631 metres away and De Passie Rotterdam is 695 metres away. There are also several other schools within a kilometre, so families with children have good options close by.
Rotterdam Central Station is 2.3 km from the apartment. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short tram or metro ride. The neighbourhood is well served by public transport, with several tram and metro stops nearby.
The CBS data records 548 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure or breakdown it is hard to judge.
