Description
This apartment is located at Slaak 138 in the Rotterdam district of Kralingen West. The property is offered for sale at a price of 365,000 euros, with the buyer responsible for the transaction costs. The living area measures 91 square meters, providing ample space for comfortable living. The property features three bedrooms, making it suitable for families, couples who need a home office, or individuals who appreciate extra room.
The apartment is situated on the first floor of a building that was constructed in 1955. Access to the building is through a closed entrance on the ground floor, equipped with an intercom system and mailboxes. From there, a staircase leads to the upper floor where the apartment is located. The entrance to the apartment itself has an L-shaped layout, from which all rooms in the property can be reached.
The living area extends along the full length of the building, which creates a generous sense of space and allows plenty of natural light to enter. The floor is finished with a robust wooden floor that gives the space a warm and inviting appearance. Due to the considerable size of this living area, there are numerous possibilities for arranging the space. A comfortable seating area, a large dining area, and even a workspace can all be accommodated without difficulty. The apartment has built-in cupboards that offer practical storage space. For those who prefer an additional bedroom, the current layout of the living area would also allow for such a modification.
From the entrance, the three bedrooms, the separate toilet, the bathroom, and the kitchen are all accessible. The kitchen currently offers potential to be transformed into a modern dream kitchen with all contemporary conveniences. Similarly, the bathroom can be renovated and fitted with stylish tiles, a spacious walk-in shower, and a new bathroom vanity to create a comfortable and contemporary space. The existing bathroom fixtures include a shower and a double sink. The three bedrooms provide sufficient space to be used as full bedrooms, a home office, or a walk-in closet, depending on the preferences of the future owner.
In addition to the apartment itself, there is a separate storage room located in the basement of the building. The total volume of the apartment is approximately 296 cubic meters.
The property is built on owned land, meaning there is no ground lease to consider. Heating and hot water are provided through a combination of a central heating boiler installed in 2024 and an electric boiler. The windows are fitted with single glazing, which is typical for buildings from this construction period and may be a point of attention for future energy efficiency improvements. The energy label of the property is E.
The building has an active and well-functioning Homeowners Association. The monthly contribution to the association is 137.74 euros. The association is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, has a reserve fund, and has building insurance in place. However, there is no maintenance plan currently available.
The purchase agreement will include a non-occupant clause as well as an age clause, which is common for older properties. The designated project notary for this transaction is Kooijman Autar Notarissen. The handover date of the property is to be agreed upon between the buyer and seller.

The property is located near the Kralingse Plas and the Kralingse Bos, offering opportunities for outdoor activities such as barbecuing, picnicking, sports, and relaxation in a green environment.
