A modern apartment in the heart of Rotterdam
This apartment on Oppert sits in the Stadsdriehoek, the oldest part of Rotterdam's centre. Built in 2007, it offers 93 square metres of living space with an A energy label, so it is very efficient to run. The last known rent of €2,600 a month was on the high side, about 15 percent above the neighbourhood average of €2,254. For context, that is a premium you pay for a newer build in a central spot. It is one of many apartments in Rotterdam currently on the rental market. This home has not been online since 11 September 2026.
The Stadsdriehoek neighbourhood
The Stadsdriehoek neighbourhood is a dense, urban area with a very strong address density. Most households are single people, and the age profile skews young, with 45 percent of residents between 25 and 45. Reviews are mixed, based on three resident accounts. One resident calls it an "Ideal location" and enjoyed living there during student days. Another is less positive, describing a "Criminal drug neighbourhood next to the city" and mentioning a coffee shop opposite and a Salvation Army shelter nearby. A third review, titled "A Pleasant Living Environment with Room for Improvement", praises the friendly community and good amenities while noting some litter and pressure on the housing market.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy here. A Jumbo supermarket is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away, so bread and groceries are never far. For families, the Jan Prins primary school is a five-minute walk, with the Willibrord school just beyond it. The nearest secondary school is about a ten-minute walk. Restaurants are on your doorstep, and the train station is a ten-minute walk, which makes getting around straightforward. All of this sits within the municipality of Rotterdam, a city with plenty going on.
