August Vermeylenstraat 40
Noordoever Sloterplas, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodA calm spot by the Sloterplas
This apartment on August Vermeylenstraat sits in a quiet corner of Noordoever Sloterplas, a neighbourhood that feels a world away from the bustle of central Amsterdam. The area is green and residential, with the Sloterplas lake just a short stroll away. At €2,200 per month for 106 m², the price is in line with the market, especially when you consider that apartments in Amsterdam average around €30 per m².
Noordoever Sloterplas
The Noordoever Sloterplas neighbourhood is a mix of terraced houses and apartment blocks, with a strong sense of community. One resident describes it as a "gated community", nice in itself, though surrounded by grimmer areas. They also note that the nearest supermarkets are a long walk away, so a bike or car comes in handy for the weekly shop. Based on one review, it's a peaceful spot, but you'll want to plan your errands.
Life on the street
The daily routine here revolves around the essentials. For bread and groceries, the nearest Albert Heijn is about a ten-minute walk, with a Dekamarkt and Lidl just a bit further. Schools are closer: MUNDUS College is just around the corner, and Spring High is a five-minute walk, making the morning school run a breeze. For a bite out, there's a restaurant within a five-minute walk, and the park is practically on your doorstep.

Frequently asked questions
About August Vermeylenstraat 40, Amsterdam
Is €2,200 a fair price for this apartment?
At €2,200 per month for 106 m², the price works out to about €20.75 per m², which is below the neighbourhood average of €30.97 per m² for rentals. However, with only one other rental currently available in the area, the market is thin, so it's hard to compare directly. Given the size and location, the price seems reasonable.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is an official registration from EP-Online. It indicates the home's energy performance on a scale from A to G, with C being mid-range. This means you can expect moderate energy costs, but the label doesn't tell you about the condition of the insulation or heating system, those details aren't in the listing.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is about 3.2 kilometres away. That's a manageable distance if you cycle or drive, but it's not within walking distance for a daily commute. You'd likely rely on a bike or public transport to reach the station.
What are the neighbours like?
Based on one resident review, the neighbourhood is described as a "gated community", quiet and safe within, though surrounded by less pleasant areas. The same resident notes that supermarkets are a long walk away. The population is diverse, with a mix of families and singles, and about 53% of households are single-person.
How quickly do rentals go in this neighbourhood?
Homes in this neighbourhood are rented out on average within 11 days, according to recent data. That suggests there's steady demand, so if you're interested, it's worth being prepared to move quickly. However, the current listing has been available for a while, which might indicate a slower market at the moment.

Experiences from Amsterdam
How residents experience their municipality
Een hele fijne, rustige buurt met veel groen en geweldige bomen die verkoeling en ontspanning bieden. 's nachts is het er stil en donker. Dat vind ik belangrijk voor de dieren. De buurt is goed bereikbaar met metro 54 en voorzieningen zijn op loopafstand in winkelcentrum de Poort. 1 ding is een ongelofelijke doorn in het oog en dat is de hygiene. Het is dagelijks een puinzoo bij de vuilcontainers. Zwerfafval waait overal naar toe. En hoewel we met een aantal bewoners dagelijks 'prikken' en opruimen is het een never ending story. Ik zou zo graag zien dat daar een oplossing voor komt.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
