Description

VAN SPEYK APARTMENTS | ROTTERDAM CITY CENTRE

A remarkable piece of Rotterdam’s history is being brought back to life on Van Speykstraat. The former children’s home, dating from 1886, has been fully renovated and transformed into 34 modern apartments, while retaining the stately appearance that makes the building so unique.

Behind the impressive façade, you will find comfortable homes in a variety of layouts, ranging from studios with a mezzanine to apartments with one or two bedrooms. The apartments feature a modern kitchen, a well-finished bathroom, underfloor heating, a heat recovery ventilation system and an A++ energy label. Historic charm on the outside, combined with contemporary living comfort on the inside.

The apartments on the top floor have their own private roof terrace, accessible via an automatic roof window. Here, you can literally live above the city while enjoying beautiful views across Rotterdam. Residents also have access to a shared front and rear garden, a communal bicycle storage facility and a shared area within the complex where they can sit and relax. The building therefore offers not only comfortable private apartments, but also pleasant communal facilities.

The location is equally attractive. The complex is centrally situated within walking distance of Rotterdam city centre, West-Kruiskade, Nieuwe Binnenweg and a wide range of shops, restaurants, cafés and public transport connections. For daily groceries and other local favourites, Upfront Supermarket, Vlaamsch Broodhuys and De Bonte Koe are all within easy walking distance. The gated entrance at the front contributes to a safe and sheltered residential environment. This allows you to live in the heart of Rotterdam while coming home to a quiet, well-maintained setting with additional privacy.

The complex is equipped with a lift. Please note that the lift does not provide access to the first half-level. There are no separate storage units. It is not possible to apply for a residential parking permit; however, it may be possible to take out a subscription at the parking garage near Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.

The apartments are expected to be completed in mid-August 2026.
