Spacious and bright apartment with unobstructed Markthal view

This three room apartment is situated on the ninth floor of a modern residential complex that was completed in 2009. The property is located at Botersloot 399 in the Stadsdriehoek district of Rotterdam, placing it right in the heart of the city center. The apartment offers approximately 94 square meters of living space and features a favorable energy label A rating.

The living area is characterized by large windows that allow abundant natural light to enter the space throughout the day. The open layout connects the living room seamlessly with the kitchen, creating a spacious and cohesive area that is suitable for both daily living and entertaining guests. The living room provides ample room for a comfortable seating arrangement as well as a dining area. The kitchen is modern and practically equipped with all necessary appliances, making cooking and socializing flow naturally together. The finish is neat and well maintained, meaning the apartment is ready for immediate occupancy without requiring additional work.

The apartment contains two well proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is spacious and benefits from the same natural light that characterizes the entire property. The second bedroom offers flexibility in its use and can serve as a home office, guest room, or children's room depending on the needs of the occupants. Both rooms are accessed from the central hallway of the apartment.

The bathroom is fully equipped and features a walk in shower, a bathtub, a sink, and a sink cabinet. Additionally, there is a separate toilet room, which adds convenience for daily use. The apartment has a total content of 313 cubic meters.

From a sustainability perspective, the property performs well with its energy label A classification. The building is fully insulated, including roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, and high efficiency glazing. The apartment features double glazing throughout with plastic window frames that require minimal maintenance. Heating and hot water are provided through the city heating system (stadsverwarming), and the entire apartment has floor heating as well as floor cooling, which contributes to a comfortable indoor climate throughout the year. The listing also mentions a heat pump in connection with the energy efficiency of the property.

The apartment building has an active and well functioning Homeowners Association (Vereniging van Eigenaars). The monthly contribution to the VvE is 241.93 euros. The VvE is properly registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, has a reserve fund in place, maintains a maintenance plan, and has arranged building insurance. These elements indicate a professionally managed residential complex.

One notable aspect of this property is its ground lease situation. The apartment itself is situated on owned ground (volle eigendom), which is advantageous for property owners. However, the bicycle storage area is located on municipal leasehold ground (gemeentelijke erfpacht). Prospective buyers may wish to inquire about the specific terms and costs associated with this leasehold arrangement.

The apartment includes a storage box located on the minus one level of the building. This storage space measures approximately 3 square meters and is fully insulated and equipped with electricity. A parking space in the secured underground parking garage is available for separate purchase at a price of 35,000 euros (costs to be paid by the buyer). The listing notes that this parking space is offered inseparably from the apartment, meaning buyers should factor this additional cost into their budget considerations.

The location of this apartment is one of its strongest attributes. Situated in the Stadsdriehoek area, the property is within walking distance of the famous Markthal, Blaak station, various shops, restaurants, and public transportation options. Despite this central location, the elevated position on the ninth floor ensures a remarkable degree of peace and quiet, combined with an unobstructed view of the Markthal and the Rotterdam city center. This combination of urban vibrancy at street level and tranquility at home is relatively rare in such central locations.

The building is accessible by elevator, making it suitable for elderly residents as well. Other amenities in the apartment include fiber optic cable, a television cable connection, and mechanical ventilation. The surrounding area offers all daily necessities within easy reach, including public transport connections, shopping facilities, dining options, and good access to major roads.

The asking price for the apartment is 529,000 euros (costs to be paid by the buyer), which translates to approximately 5,628 euros per square meter. The property is currently available and the delivery date can be arranged in consultation, with the possibility of a quick transfer.

The measurements and surface areas mentioned in this listing are based on the NEN2580 measurement instruction, which aims to provide a more uniform method of measuring to indicate the usable surface area. However, this measurement instruction does not completely exclude differences in measurement outcomes due to interpretation differences, rounding, or limitations when performing the measurement. All specified dimensions and surfaces are therefore indicative.

It is important to note that under Dutch law, a verbal agreement between a private seller and a private buyer is not legally binding. A legally valid purchase only exists when both the private seller and the private buyer have signed the purchase agreement. This is stipulated in Article 7:2 of the Dutch Civil Code. A confirmation of verbal agreement by email or a sent draft of the purchase agreement is not considered a signed purchase agreement. The listing advises potential buyers to engage their own NVM certified real estate agent when purchasing this property.
