A calm spot in the Operabuurt
This apartment sits in the Operabuurt, a quiet residential pocket of Amstelveen where the streets are lined with mature trees and the pace of life feels unhurried. The area is very strongly urban, with a high address density, yet the atmosphere is more suburban than city-centre. The last known asking price of €475,000 sat 24% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood, which came to €623,583, and was also below the median of €695,000. For context, the average asking price per square metre in the area was €6,255, while this home worked out at €4,318 per square metre based on the BAG registration. That puts it on the low side compared with other apartments in Amstelveen. This home has not been online since 15 September 2026.
The apartment itself
The listing gave no details on the layout, so the number of rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms was not stated. What is known is that the apartment was built in 1970 and carries an energy label C. The living area according to the BAG registration is 110 square metres. Because the floor area was the only figure available, the price per square metre was calculated on that basis. There was no information on outdoor space, insulation, heating or ownership structure in the listing.
