Diepenbrockbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Bernard Zweerskade sits in one of Amsterdam's most elegant neighbourhoods. At €1,195,000, the asking price is 78% below the neighbourhood average of €5,393,462, a reflection of its smaller size rather than any compromise on quality. For context, the average apartments in Amsterdam in this price bracket tend to be larger, but this home offers a rare chance to own a piece of the Apollobuurt without the seven-figure-plus price tag of its neighbours.
The neighbourhood Diepenbrockbuurt is a tranquil enclave within the Apollobuurt, known for its wide, tree-lined streets and stately pre-war architecture. One resident describes it as "a nice, green neighbourhood with plenty of space and quiet streets." With 62% of homes being single-family houses and 68% owner-occupied, it's a stable, family-oriented area. The average household size is 2.4, and a quarter of households have children. Incomes are above average, and the streets feel safe and well-maintained.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there's an AH to go a couple of streets away. Schools are plentiful: the St. Nicolaaslyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and the Eerste Openluchtschool voor het Gezonde Kind (primary) is also within easy reach. The municipality Amsterdam ensures excellent amenities, the Amstelpark is a ten-minute walk, and restaurants, a GP, and a library are all nearby.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via PC22 makelaars o.z. and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

About Bernard Zweerskade 24-2, Amsterdam
The asking price is 78% below the neighbourhood average of €5,393,462, but that average is skewed by very large properties. At €8,852 per m², this apartment is actually below the neighbourhood average of €15,888 per m², making it keenly priced for the area. However, the 135 m² floor area is 55% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 300 m², so you're paying for location, not square metres.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war building. In the neighbourhood, 33% of homes have label C, and another 33% have D or lower. Label C means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, not the cheapest to heat, but far from the worst. You won't face the high bills of a G-label home.
Diepenbrockbuurt is very family-friendly. One resident says: 'Amenities such as shops, supermarkets and schools are all nearby, making life here very comfortable.' With 125 households with children and several good schools within walking distance, it's a popular choice for families. The nearby Amstelpark offers green space for kids to play.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to Amsterdam Centraal or Schiphol, though many residents rely on trams and bikes for daily travel.
The neighbourhood recorded 94 total crimes in the latest data, which is low for a central Amsterdam area. Residents describe it as 'quiet' and 'safe', and the streets feel well-maintained. It's one of the reasons the neighbourhood scores a 9.38 out of 10 in reviews.
At 135 m², this apartment is 55% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 300 m². That's because many homes in Diepenbrockbuurt are large family houses or spacious apartments. However, 135 m² is still a comfortable size for a two- or three-bedroom apartment in Amsterdam.
