Fully Renovated Double Upper Apartment in Rotterdam Overschie

This double upper-level apartment is located at Parallelstraat 73-C in the Overschie district of Rotterdam. The property presents itself as a move-in ready home that has undergone complete renovation in 2025, including the installation of a new foundation. With a living area of approximately 75 square meters spread across two residential floors, this apartment offers a practical and comfortable living arrangement for prospective buyers.

The apartment is situated on the second and third floors of the building. Access to the property is gained through a private entrance on the second floor, reached via a staircase from the ground floor entrance. Upon entering the home, residents are immediately met with pleasant natural light and a well-maintained finish that reflects the recent renovation work.

The living room on the second floor is generously proportioned and benefits from excellent natural illumination. This is largely due to the presence of sliding doors that open onto the balcony. The balcony, measuring 2 square meters, serves as a pleasant extension of the indoor living space and provides an outdoor area suitable for relaxation or enjoying a morning beverage. The open-plan kitchen connects seamlessly with the living room and has been fitted with modern built-in appliances and ample workspace for food preparation.

Also located on the second floor is a sleek and modern bathroom equipped with a spacious shower and a vanity unit. Additionally, there is a separate toilet room, which adds to the overall convenience and comfort of the living arrangement on this level.

The third floor of the apartment houses two comfortable bedrooms. Both rooms are well-proportioned and filled with natural light. A notable architectural feature of these bedrooms is the presence of exposed wooden beams, which combined with the shape of the roof structure, give these spaces a distinctive character and warm atmosphere. The rooms offer suitable dimensions for various furniture configurations and sleeping arrangements.

The original construction year of the building is 1931, but the apartment has been completely renovated in 2025. As part of this renovation, a new foundation has been installed, which represents a significant structural improvement. The property has an energy label A rating, indicating high energy efficiency. This efficiency is supported by the full installation of double glazing throughout the apartment. Heating and hot water are provided by a combi-boiler that was installed in 2025, ensuring reliable and modern heating infrastructure.

The property is held in full ownership (volle eigendom), meaning there is no ground lease (erfpacht) to consider. There is, however, an active Homeowners Association (Vereniging van Eigenaars) to which a monthly contribution of 138.88 euros applies. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, has a reserve fund in place, and maintains building insurance. It should be noted that there is no formal maintenance plan currently in place according to the listing details.

The location in Overschie offers a distinctive living environment within the greater Rotterdam area. Overschie is characterized as a family-friendly neighborhood situated near the historic village center. Residents benefit from a relatively peaceful and green environment while still being part of the city of Rotterdam.

The immediate surroundings offer all necessary daily amenities within walking distance. These include shops, public transport connections, schools, and various restaurants and lunch spots. A notable advantage of the location is the availability of free parking throughout the area, which is a practical benefit for car owners.

For recreation and nature, the green Zestienhovenpark and the Ackerdijkse Plassen nature reserve are reachable within minutes. These areas provide opportunities for outdoor activities and enjoying natural surroundings close to home.

Public transport options via bus are also available. For car travel, the property is conveniently positioned near major roads including the A20 and A13 motorways. Rotterdam The Hague Airport is also located at a short distance, offering convenient access for international air travel.

A project notary, specifically Elan Notarissen, has been designated for the transaction. The transfer date is to be determined through consultation between the parties.
