A 1935 apartment on Walenburgerweg
This apartment on Walenburgerweg sits in Blijdorp, a part of Rotterdam where the streets have a settled, established feel. The building dates from 1935, so the architecture has that pre-war character you find across this corner of the city. This listing did not state an energy label, so the rest of this page was mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €2,250 per month for 91 m², the rent sat in line with the average for apartments in Rotterdam. This home has not been online since 30 October 2026.
The Blijdorp neighbourhood
Blijdorp comes across as a calm, green pocket of the city. One resident describes it as a "quiet neighbourhood where neighbours know and help each other when needed," while another calls it "cosy, quiet neighbourhood with nice people." The Vroesenpark and Diergaarde Blijdorp are both nearby, and residents mention that people still greet each other on the street. A third review notes "peaceful living in the city," though it also points out that many residents live as individuals, so the sense of community is limited. Based on three reviews, the picture is of a friendly, leafy area with a mix of ages. The population skews towards singles, with many households of one person, and the average household size is small. For more on the area, see the Blijdorp neighbourhood.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy from here. A Dirk supermarket is just around the corner, with an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away, so the weekly shop is a short walk. For schools, De Provenier primary school is on your doorstep, and De Margriet is just around the corner. Secondary options include Montessori Mavo and Wolfert ISK, both within a couple of streets. The train station is about 1.9 km away, and the metro is mentioned by residents as a handy way to get around. The area has plenty of shops, restaurants and bars nearby, according to those who live there. For a broader view of the surroundings, the municipality of Rotterdam has more on what the city offers.
