A classic apartment on the Westzeedijk
This apartment on the Westzeedijk in Delfshaven sits in a classic 1909 building with an A energy label, a strong combination of old character and modern efficiency. The 66 m² floor plan was compact, and the last known rent of €1,499 per month sat well below the average for rentals in the area. Compared with apartments in Rotterdam, this price was on the low side, especially given the efficient label. This home has not been online since 28 September 2026.

Frequently asked questions
About Westzeedijk 505C, Rotterdam
Was €1,499 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €1,499 was about 37% below the neighbourhood average of €2,368 for rentals. The floor area of 66 m² was smaller than the average of 109 m², so the price per square metre was relatively high. Compared with other rentals in Delfshaven, this was a keen price for an apartment with an A energy label.
What does the A energy label mean for this home?
The A label is the most efficient category in the official energy labelling system. It meant the home was registered as very energy-efficient, which typically translated into lower heating costs compared with less efficient labels. The label is an official registration and says nothing about the condition of the building itself.
How far is the nearest supermarket?
The nearest supermarket is an Albert Heijn at 217 metres, which is just around the corner. A SPAR express is at 868 metres, and another Albert Heijn and a Jumbo are both within a kilometre. For daily groceries, you have several options within a short walk.
What schools are close to this apartment?
Middelland College and the Delfshaven primary school are both at 101 metres, on your doorstep. Harbour IBSR Bilingual is at 221 metres, and De Theaterhavo/vwo at 229 metres. With several schools within a couple of streets away, this is a practical location for families with children.
