Borneostraat 1B, Amsterdam

This two-bedroom apartment in the Indische Buurt has a calm, residential feel despite being in one of Amsterdam's liveliest districts. Built in 2002, it offers 87 m² of well-laid-out living space with an energy label B. At €650,000, the asking price is 19% above the neighbourhood average of €545,254, but the floor area is 40% larger than the typical 62 m² in the area, so the price per m² is actually in line with the market. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one represents a solid mid-range option.

Timorpleinbuurt-Noord

The neighbourhood Timorpleinbuurt-Noord is a dense, urban pocket with 3,845 residents and a very high address density of 8,460 per km². Most homes are pre-war (81%), but this apartment is from 2002, so it stands out. One resident says: "I don't think the neighbourhood is extremely special, but I do like the atmosphere and there are nice people living here. I would like to see a bit more greenery, like more flowers and plants. That would make the neighbourhood a bit cosier. Also, there is often litter on the streets, which doesn't look nice and especially not cosy. Other than that, I'm happy with my neighbourhood!" The area scores a 6.43 out of 10 based on one review.

Life on the street

For daily errands, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Vomar and Lidl are a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, De Indische Buurt School, is on your doorstep, while Bataviaschool and Basisschool Oostelijke Eilanden are a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers excellent public transport, with a train station a ten-minute walk away. A park is also a five-minute stroll, and plenty of restaurants are within a couple of streets.

The neighbourhood is fine

I don't think the neighbourhood is extremely special, but I do like the atmosphere and there are nice people living here. I would like to see a bit more greenery, like more flowers and plants. That would make the neighbourhood a bit cosier. Also, there is often litter on the streets, which doesn't look nice and especially not cosy. Other than that, I'm happy with my neighbourhood!
