Family House Oosterscheldestraat, Berkel en Rodenrijs - For Rent

This single-family home on the Oosterscheldestraat is located on the Eilanden van Berkel, a residential area in the quiet town of Berkel en Rodenrijs where most of the homes are situated directly along the water. The house offers a living area of approximately 126 square meters, three bedrooms, and energy label A, with a monthly rent of €1,600. It is available from 1 December 2026. The three peninsulas on which the corner and terraced houses stand form part of a complex of 48 spacious single-family homes. With five of the six residential blocks positioned at the waterfront, water is a constant presence in everyday life here.

Inside, the house features a fully finished open Keller kitchen equipped with built-in Siemens appliances, available in a corner, parallel, or island configuration. The modern and complete bathroom includes a bathtub, a separate shower, a washbasin, and a second toilet, providing a comfortable space to relax. On the upper floor are three bedrooms as well as a spacious attic with a skylight facing south, offering room for the whole household and potentially a place to work from home. Through the sliding door in the living room, the backyard is directly accessible, connecting the indoor space with the outdoors.

The homes in this complex are equipped with solar panels, and the external storage rooms have green roofs. For most homes, including the majority of types A and B, the backyard lies at the water's edge and features a private fishing jetty, allowing residents to sit quietly by the water. The combination of the garden, the jetty, and the southern orientation makes the outdoor space pleasant throughout much of the year. This waterside setting gives the neighborhood a distinct character compared with more urban residential areas in the region.

The location offers good connections to the surrounding cities. The nearest bus stop on the Oosterscheldestraat is about a five-minute walk away and is served by bus 574, which travels to the Berkel Westpolder metro station; cycling there takes roughly five minutes. From that station, Rotterdam and The Hague are both easily reachable, and by car the A4, A12, and A20 motorways are all close by. For daily shopping, Winkelcentrum Berkel is around seven minutes away by bicycle, with an Albert Heijn and other shops. The area also offers schools, childcare facilities, and several sports clubs near the Oostmeerhal, some of which are visible from the water, making the neighborhood well suited to families.
