Lange Hilleweg 72A – A Wooden Home Above the City A wooden house in the sky – stylish living with a Scandinavian touch Looking for a surprisingly spacious 2-bedroom apartment with a unique atmosphere, lovely outdoor space, and an interior that stands out? Welcome to Lange Hilleweg 72A – a home that feels like a wooden bungalow nestled in greenery, only it’s elevated above the city. Situated on the top floor, with thoughtful design and a generous rooftop terrace, this is a one-of-a-kind apartment you won’t easily come across again. The current owners drew inspiration from the 1960s and ’70s and the work of modernist architect Le Corbusier. This is reflected not only in the use of materials – such as birch wood finishes throughout, brass accents, and the soft-toned color scheme – but especially in the harmonious way all interior elements are composed. Living with a view – and character The apartment is located on the third and top floor of a well-maintained apartment building. Thanks to its position, you’ll enjoy privacy and views on multiple sides. From the living room, you look out over the neighborhood towards Zuiderpark on one side, and the Rotterdam skyline on the other. Indoors and outdoors flow seamlessly together thanks to the expansive L-shaped balcony (approx. 55 m²) facing northwest and southwest. It’s a rooftop garden where you can enjoy the sun from morning to evening – a peaceful retreat above the city. The living room is bright, welcoming, and well laid out. The open-plan kitchen connects directly to it and is both practical and contemporary. While the kitchen dates from 1995, it has been well maintained. With partly updated appliances, a brass backsplash, and a soft color palette, the kitchen still matches the apartment’s character perfectly. The main bedroom features custom-built open wardrobes and gives access to the emergency stairwell with a small, sunny morning balcony. The second bedroom also has built-in open storage and overlooks the roof terrace. The colorful bathroom is both cheerful and functional, with a bathtub, rain shower, designer sink, terracotta tiles, and warm brass accents. A separate toilet is conveniently located in the hallway, where you’ll also find a built-in storage cupboard. OUTDOOR SPACE And then there’s the balcony… This is where the penthouse feeling comes to life. Wrapping around the corner and facing southwest and northwest, the approx. 55 m² terrace is truly a place to enjoy outdoor living. With sunshine from early morning to late evening, open views over the city, and enough room for plants, seating areas, and even a small outdoor kitchen, it’s a private oasis above the urban landscape.
