Katendrecht, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Nico Koomanskade sits right on the Katendrecht peninsula, with the river Maas as your daily backdrop. At 187 m² it is unusually spacious, and the 1949 building has been well maintained. The asking price of €1,500,000 is 42% above the neighbourhood average of €1,054,414, so it is on the high side, but then this is a home with serious presence. For context, apartments in Rotterdam vary widely, and this one is at the top end.
Katendrecht has transformed from a working harbour into a sought-after residential area, yet it keeps a village feel. One resident describes it as 'nice and cosy, everyone knows each other and always ready for a chat.' The neighbourhood counts about 7,000 residents, with a mix of families and singles, and a high proportion of modern housing. It is a very urban spot, address density is over 4,000 addresses per km², but the park is just a couple of streets away. This is the Katendrecht neighbourhood at its most sociable.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Lidl are a five-minute walk. Schools are close too: Young Rotterdam vmbo and De Passie Rotterdam are within a five-minute walk, and De Schalm Katendrecht primary school is also a couple of streets away. The restaurant is on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk. All of this falls within the municipality of Rotterdam, which means city amenities are never far.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Hulstkamp Christie's Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.

About Nico Koomanskade 95, Rotterdam
The asking price of €1,500,000 is 42% above the neighbourhood average of €1,054,414, so it is on the high side. However, this is a large apartment of 187 m² on the waterfront, and the median price in Katendrecht is €875,000. The price per m² is not directly comparable because of the size and location. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the river views and the generous floor plan.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (1949). In the neighbourhood, over 60% of homes have label A or better, so this one is less efficient than many newer properties. You can expect moderate heating costs, but nothing extreme. The label is stated in the listing, so no guesswork is needed.
Katendrecht has a mix of households: about 30% are families with children, 30% are couples without children, and 40% are singles. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, and the park is just around the corner. One resident says it is 'nice and cosy, everyone knows each other', so it feels safe and community-oriented.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That gives you access to the national rail network. The address density is high, so public transport is well developed.
The average price per m² for apartments in Katendrecht is €6,662, and this home works out to about €8,021 per m² (€1,500,000 / 187 m²). That is above the neighbourhood average, but the property is larger than typical (average 160 m²) and has a prime waterfront position. In Rotterdam as a whole, prices vary widely, so this is a premium home.
The listing does not mention a parking spot or garage. Katendrecht is a dense urban area with high address density, so on-street parking may be limited. You would need to check with the municipality for permit availability. The home is well served by public transport and walking routes, so a car may not be essential.
The listing does not provide details about renovations. The building dates from 1949 and has an energy label C, which suggests some modernisation has been done, but the exact condition is not stated. A building inspection would give you a clear picture. The agent has not published any specific notes on maintenance.
