A classic Amsterdam apartment on a lively street

This apartment on the Amstelveenseweg sits in the heart of the city, with the buzz of the Vondelpark and the shops of Overtoom just a short walk away. The home spans 53 m² and was built in 1913, giving it the high ceilings and period character typical of the area. The asking price of €485,000 is 38% below the neighbourhood average of €776,169, which makes it a keen entry point into this sought-after part of town. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price, but this one stands out for its relative affordability.

The Schinkelbuurt-Noord neighbourhood

Schinkelbuurt-Noord is a dense, urban pocket of Amsterdam Oud-Zuid, with an address density of over 8,000 per km². The area is dominated by pre-war housing, and most homes are apartments. The population skews young, nearly half of residents are between 25 and 45, and single-person households are common. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the CBS data shows a lively, central area with a mix of students and young professionals. The Schinkelbuurt-Noord neighbourhood is well connected and has a strong local identity.

Life on the street

For daily groceries, an Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, with a Dirk and a Jumbo just around the corner. Primary schools include De Kleine Nicolaas (a five-minute walk) and Oecumenische basisschool Nautilus (a ten-minute walk). Secondary options like Montessori Lyceum Oostpoort and Het Amsterdams Lyceum are also within a ten-minute walk. The Vondelpark is a couple of streets away, and the neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, which offers extensive cultural and recreational amenities.
