Cool, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on William Boothlaan sits in the vibrant centre of Rotterdam, with the city's energy right on your doorstep. The listing does not state a year of construction. As a result, some details about the home's age are missing. At €875,000, the price is 60% above the neighbourhood average of €546,233, which puts it on the high side, but then you're paying for a prime central location and an A+++ energy label. For context, apartments in Rotterdam vary widely in price and size.
Cool is a dense, bustling part of Rotterdam's city centre. With 6,985 residents packed into a small area, it's one of the most urban spots in the city, the address density is 6,905 per km². Most households are single-person (2,560 out of 4,040), and the average household size is just 1.5. Reviews from residents give a mixed picture: one says simply "I am looking for a home," while another notes "A lot of vagrants. Police are quick to respond, but it's a shame it's necessary." Based on four reviews, the average score is 6.25. The neighbourhood Cool is undeniably central, but it's not for everyone.
For your morning bread, SPAR is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are two primary schools within a five-minute walk: Openbare Basisschool Het Landje and Rotterdamse Schoolvereniging. For secondary education, Erasmiaans Gymnasium is about a ten-minute walk. The municipality Rotterdam offers all the amenities you'd expect from a major city, from restaurants to parks.
