Urban design appartement in Rotterdam, Netherlands
Behind these windows, you will find one of the most colourful and cosy apartments in Rotterdam. Entering the square hallway, you immediately feel the authenticity of the 30’s.
Wooden floors, stained glass doors, high ceilings... very well utilised, it’s all there.
The apartment is light and sunny, has a beautiful view and is located on a 15 min. walk from the city centre, in a cosy and peaceful neighbourhood called Blijdorp (which is Dutch for ‘happy village’😊). You will also find Rotterdam Zoo (also called Blijdorp) in walking distance. Take a walk in one of the close-by parks or adjacent estates.
Public transportation options are widely available and almost on your doorstep. Hoek van Holland beach is just a 30 minute drive away by car but you can also take the Randstadrail (underground) to it! But of course you can also take one of the ‘Check!’ electric scooters to travel.
Spend your time in the relaxing but vibrant city of Rotterdam... Please take a look inside the house and enjoy!

About Our Family
My name is Mariette, 57 years old, and I live on my own in a beautiful appartment. I have 2 children; Casper age 22 and Olga, 18 years old. Not sure if they will come along with me on my exchanges but a friend will join me.
I work as a Instructional designer at the School of Applied Siences in Leiden and I love my work.
Lifestyle
We live in a big city. So, the girls (me and my daughter) love to shop. We always like to wear the coolest clothes. Mariette has over 50 pairs of shoes and Olga wishes she will grow fast so that she can wear her mothers shoes.
Casper lives his own life in his own apartment but sometimes likes to travel with his mum. Olga loves gymnastics and is pretty good in it.
We enjoy life as it comes!
