Overhoeks, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis brand-new apartment in Overhoeks feels like stepping into the future of Amsterdam living. With an A+++ energy label, it's as efficient as it gets, and at €1,733 per month it's priced keenly, 33% below the neighbourhood average. For context, that's a rare find in a market where the median rent is €2,205. If you're looking at apartments in Amsterdam, this one stands out for its combination of new build and value.
Overhoeks is a calm, safe neighbourhood on the north bank of the IJ, just a ferry ride from the city centre. Based on three reviews, residents appreciate the peace and quiet. One says: "It's a very nice neighbourhood, just a shame that the nearest supermarket is so small and therefore doesn't have everything." Another adds: "It's a nice neighbourhood to grow up in, but it's a shame there's no large supermarket nearby; you have to take your bike for that, about a 7-minute ride." The area is mostly young professionals and couples, over half the residents are between 25 and 45, and the streets are very quiet, with a park just a couple of streets away. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Overhoeks.
Your daily bread run is to the small Albert Heijn just around the corner, handy for essentials, though for a full shop you'd cycle to Vomar or another Albert Heijn about a ten-minute walk away. For school runs, IKC Overhoeks is on your doorstep, and the Hyperion Lyceum secondary school is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam keeps the area well connected, with the ferry to Centraal Station a short walk away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Huispedia, MVGM Wonen, and, so it's available through several channels.

Auto-translated to English by AIIn my opinion, Overhoeks is a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood. It's convenient that you can be in the heart of Amsterdam within 10 minutes without having to deal with the hustle and bustle of the centre. There is a calm and safe atmosphere. The only downside is that there are still some shops missing. There is only one small Albert Heijn.
