And wherever you are, there are those unobstructed views across the Nieuwe Maas and Rotterdam. But it is not just about the numbers. It is the way everything comes together. The space. The light. The height. The kitchen positioned exactly between the living room and the roof terrace. And the freedom to simply enjoy life here.

And up here, ‘above’ really does mean above. At approximately 50 m², the living room is wonderfully spacious in its own right. But it is the combination of height, light and views that makes this room truly special. The ceiling rises to 4.12 metres, while the enormous window spans 5.14 metres in width and more than four metres in height. As a result, Rotterdam almost becomes a painting. Except this one is constantly changing. The light, the weather, the seasons. A clear blue sky above the river, dark clouds rolling in across the Maas or the city slowly switching on its lights as evening falls. Whatever you are doing, the view is always there. CENTRE STAGE. EXACTLY WHERE IT SHOULD BE. The kitchen is exactly where you want it: between the living room and the roof terrace. So it is not only at the heart of the apartment, but right in the middle of the view as well. A quick breakfast or a morning coffee while looking out across the Maas. Cooking an elaborate dinner followed by a long evening around the table. Or watching the sun break through while preparing lunch and deciding: we’re taking this outside. Because as soon as the weather allows it, open the doors and step onto the roof terrace. ALMOST 150 M². ALL YOURS. And we are not talking about a balcony that happens to have enough room for a table and four chairs. This roof terrace measures no less than 147 m². A genuine outdoor living space with room to create different areas for dining, lounging, enjoying the sun or simply watching the city go by. Breakfast in the morning sun. A lazy afternoon with a book. Long tables, full glasses and friends who stay until Rotterdam switches on its lights. Or invite absolutely nobody and keep all 147 m² entirely to yourself. With the Nieuwe Maas at your feet and Rotterdam spread out before you, we think we can safely ask the question: The finest terrace in De Veranda? Or perhaps even in the entire city? ONE LAST LOOK. AND THEN TO BED. At approximately 19 m², the principal bedroom offers plenty of space and feels a little like a wonderful hotel suite every night. One last look outside. Then relax in the bath, take a quick shower or simply climb straight into bed. The only difference is that you do not have to check out tomorrow. The other two bedrooms are equally impressive. The second bedroom measures approximately 16 m² and, just like the living room, has that remarkable ceiling height of 4.12 metres. The third bedroom measures approximately 13 m². These are not rooms that merely increase the bedroom count on a floor plan. They are spaces you can actually use. Working. Reading. Exercising. Welcoming guests. Or simply closing the door behind you every now and then. And all three bedrooms have something that makes living here even more special: their own direct access to the roof terrace. Step outside for a moment before going to bed. Or make it the first thing you do in the morning. And with two bathrooms, everyone can have their own space and their own rhythm. Good morning. On your time. PLENTY GOING ON Step outside the front door and there is plenty to choose from. For a film at Pathé, dinner out or drinks on a terrace, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood. The heart of De Veranda is just around the corner. Walk in the other direction, however, and the surroundings change surprisingly quickly. The Nieuwe Maas is a wonderful place for a walk, and just a little further away is the Eiland van Brienenoord: a small Rotterdam secret with woodland, grassland, tidal nature and walking trails that even continue beneath the Van Brienenoord Bridge. And yes, you may find yourself walking among Scottish Highland cattle here. Keep a little distance, though. They are still Rotterdammers with horns. Prefer the city? No problem. Via Laan op Zuid, you can cycle or drive almost directly towards the Erasmus Bridge and Rotterdam city centre. The tram will take you that way too. And when you want to leave the city, the A15 and A16 motorways are only a few minutes away. There was something else. Oh yes! De Kuip. Sacred ground to some, a Rotterdam icon to others. Legendary matches have been played here, European cup finals and international fixtures decided, and memories created that have been passed down through generations. And new ones are still being made. FINALLY 160 m² of living space. 147 m² of outdoor space. A living room of approximately 50 m². Three spacious bedrooms. Two bathrooms. Two parking spaces. And a view that is unlikely ever to become ordinary. But this is a home you should not judge by the numbers alone. You need to stand here. So come and experience it for yourself. You are very welcome.
