Oude Dorp is a small, quiet pocket of Amstelveen with just under 600 residents. It's a mix of ages, with a fair number of families and older households. One resident describes it as "Not a nice place to live", citing nuisance from a nearby caravan camp and feeling unsafe walking in the dark. The same review mentions that public transport doesn't reach the area and that there are "often strange characters on the road to the woods". Based on this single review, the overall score is 4.88 out of 5, a high rating that seems at odds with the written feedback. The neighbourhood Oude Dorp is very green, with a park or public garden just around the corner.

A lot of nuisance from the caravan camp and the house is too remote to be able to walk safely in the dark. Public transport doesn't come there and there are often strange characters on the road to the woods. Creepy neighbourhood

About Badlaan 29, Amstelveen
At 49 m² and with energy label C, the price of €285,000 is in line with what other apartments in Amstelveen are selling for. The home was built in 1988, so it's not new but not old either. Without comparable sales in the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced for the area.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home from 1988. You can expect reasonable energy costs, but it won't be as efficient as a modern A-label home. The listing doesn't mention insulation or heating system details, so you'd need to check those yourself.
The nearest train station is 6.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bike, car or bus to reach it. The neighbourhood review mentions that public transport doesn't come directly to Oude Dorp, so a car or bike is probably essential for commuting.
Oude Dorp has about 595 residents, with a mix of singles, couples and families. The average household size is 1.9 people. One resident review describes nuisance from a caravan camp and feeling unsafe in the dark, but the overall neighbourhood score is 4.88 out of 5, which suggests most people are satisfied.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. The apartment is 49 m², so it's likely a flat without private outdoor space. However, there is a park or public garden just 0.2 km away, so green space is nearby.
The listing does not state the number of rooms or bedrooms. With 49 m², it's a compact apartment, but the layout is not described. You would need to contact the agent for floor plans.
