Scheldebuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 79 m² apartment on Deurloostraat sits in the heart of Scheldebuurt-West, a pocket of Amsterdam that feels more like a friendly village than a big-city neighbourhood. The home dates from 1928 and carries an energy label C, so you get the charm of pre-war architecture with reasonable efficiency. At €785,000, the asking price is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €852,061, making it a keen entry into this sought-after area. For context, the median price here is €775,000, so this home sits right around the middle of the market. You can compare it with other apartments in Amsterdam to see how it stacks up.
Based on one review, residents give the neighbourhood an 8.13 out of 10. One resident says: "I have been living in this neighbourhood for 19 years now and have a good relationship with our neighbours. Fun events are regularly organised that the neighbourhood can join in with. My children went to school here and have built up many friends in the area. It is a cosy little village, most people know each other and care about one another." The area is densely built with pre-war housing, and most households are singles or couples without children. The neighbourhood Scheldebuurt-West is very urban, with over 7,000 addresses per square kilometre, yet the community spirit is strong.
Your daily routine starts with a short walk to Ekoplaza, just 65 metres away, for organic groceries. Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away, and there's another Albert Heijn. For school runs, Dongeschool is on your doorstep, and Basisschool Anne Frank is a five-minute walk. Secondary schools like Mediacollege Amsterdam and Vossius Gymnasium are also within walking distance. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational options you'd expect from the capital, but here you get a quieter, more neighbourly slice of it.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Ramon Mossel Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels. The price and details are current as of the listing date.
