Urban charm, space and a wonderful garden — living at Saftlevenstraat 2A

Living in the beloved Nieuwe Westen means having the city’s energy within reach while coming home to a place where calm, comfort and warmth come together. This double‑level ground‑floor home at Saftlevenstraat 2A offers exactly that: character, surprising spaciousness and a lovely city garden you can enjoy all year round.

The Nieuwe Westen – a district full of life and character
Saftlevenstraat is located in one of Rotterdam’s most sought‑after urban neighbourhoods. Here you live among stately façades, broad streets and the creative buzz of the city. The Nieuwe Binnenweg is just around the corner, with its boutiques, coffee bars, specialty shops and cosy eateries. Museumpark, the city centre, Erasmus MC, schools and various public transport connections are all within easy reach. Comfortable living with the city on your doorstep that is exactly what makes this location so appealing.

Ground floor – light, living space and a natural connection to the outdoors
Your private entrance leads you into a spacious, stately hall. The authentic interior door, a characteristic detail that immediately adds atmosphere, guides you into the rest of the home. The hall also offers a separate space for coats and a separate toilet with a small fountain practical and charming, just like the home itself.

Continuing through, you enter the living room at the front of the house. Large windows allow natural light to pour in and offer a beautiful view of the lively Nieuwe Binnenweg. In the evening, the sunlight brings a warm and relaxed ambience to the room.

At the rear, the dining room and kitchen flow naturally into one another. It is the place where you gather, cook, talk, work or enjoy a quiet moment with a cup of coffee while looking outside.

From the kitchen you step onto the balcony, a lovely spot to enjoy the morning sun. A staircase leads down to the city garden below: green, peaceful and sheltered. It’s a wonderful outdoor space in the middle of the city, sunny in the morning and pleasantly shaded in the afternoon. Perfect for relaxing, entertaining or working outside on warm days.

This floor also includes an additional room, ideal as a workspace, hobby room or guest room whatever suits your needs at that moment.

Souterrain
Descending the staircase in the hallway, you enter the souterrain — a surprisingly bright and spacious level where daylight finds its way in beautifully. This floor features two large bedrooms, one of which has direct access to the garden. It’s a wonderfully tranquil space where indoors and outdoors seem to blend seamlessly.

The bathroom is generous in size and neatly finished, equipped with a shower, double washbasin, and bidet. There is also a separate toilet for added convenience.
Additionally, you’ll find another room on this level, once again offering flexible use. Consider it as a home office, TV room, gym, or even a third bedroom. The large storage room and dedicated laundry space help keep the entire floor tidy and practical.

This level can be effortlessly arranged as a sleeping floor, home office, or a combination of both — a space that easily adapts to your lifestyle.
Finally, at the front of the property, there is a convenient wine cellar that also houses the utility meters, providing an extra 4 square meters of storage space.
