Parks are a couple of streets away, and the metro and train station are within walking distance. The neighbourhood Minervabuurt-Zuid is one of Amsterdam's more sought-after residential enclaves.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and there is an Ekoplaza a few minutes further.

Very good · 1 resident
I experience my neighbourhood as suitable for families, there are good schools and it is not too busy. In the area there are many options for sports. Contact with the neighbours is sufficient, but not very close. Furthermore, there are several parks in the area and the surroundings are easily accessible, with a metro and train station within walking distance. It is a fifteen-minute bike ride to the centre.
