I've been living on Hetty Blokstraat for 2 years now. And I think it's a great neighbourhood. With nice people and beautiful energy-efficient houses. The public transport connections are unfortunately not great. But since this is a new district, I think that will change. I think it's a super nice neighbourhood and I don't think I'll ever leave this neighbourhood.

About Distelweg 78R96, Amsterdam
The rent of €2,565 is exactly the median for rentals in Buiksloterham-Zuid, so it's in line with the market. However, the apartment is 82 m², which is 42% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 142 m². Whether that represents good value depends on how much you value a modern, energy-efficient home in a new district.
The energy label is A+++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity costs. It's typical for new-build homes in this neighbourhood.
Public transport connections are not great, as one resident notes. The nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so you'll likely use the tram or ferry to reach Amsterdam's centre. The neighbourhood is still developing, so connections may improve over time.
For groceries, Vomar is 718 m away and Albert Heijn is 892 m, both within a ten-minute walk. Several primary schools are close, including Dalton Kind Centrum De IJsbreker (299 m) and Kindcentrum De Baanbreker (654 m). A restaurant and a library are also within walking distance.
The agent has not published the year of construction in the listing. This is a common omission for new-build homes where the exact completion date may vary. You can assume it's a recent build given the energy label A+++ and the modern design of the neighbourhood.
With 82 m², it could be a two-bedroom or three-bedroom apartment, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
