About Donau 38, Amstelveen
The rent is €2,650 per month, which is above the neighbourhood average of €1,417. However, this apartment is 101 m², while the average rental in Watercirkelbuurt is 78 m², so you're getting 29% more space. The energy label B also helps keep utility costs reasonable. Given the size and location, the price is on the high side but reflects the extra square metres.

The area is popular with families and older residents alike, and the combination of green space and nearby shops makes it desirable.
Watercirkelbuurt is very family-friendly. One resident says it's 'a nice neighbourhood where children always want to play outside'. There are several primary schools within walking distance, a park just a couple of streets away, and three supermarkets nearby. The mix of ages means there are both young families and older residents, creating a balanced community.
The nearest train station is 6.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the area is well served by bus routes and the tram network in Amstelveen. For daily commuting, a car or bicycle might be more practical, but the bus connections to Amsterdam and Schiphol are frequent.
The apartment has energy label B, which is quite efficient. You can expect relatively low heating and electricity costs compared to older homes with labels D or lower. The building was constructed in 1971, so it likely has some insulation, but label B indicates it performs well above the minimum standards.
Yes, a park or public garden is just 0.4 km away, a couple of streets from the apartment. The neighbourhood itself has a green feel, and the nearby Amsterdamse Bos is a short bike ride away. For daily walks or children's play, the local park is very convenient.
Three supermarkets are within a five-minute walk: Jumbo at 172 m, Albert Heijn at 199 m, and Lidl at 247 m. That's exceptional for daily shopping. For a wider selection, PLUS is about 1 km away. You'll never have to go far for groceries.
