Filips van Almondestraat 27-2

A compact apartment in a lively Amsterdam neighbourhood

This two-room apartment on the Filips van Almondestraat sits in the Filips van Almondekwartier, a pocket of the Chassébuurt in Amsterdam-West. At 47 m² it's compact, but the asking price of €450,000 is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €617,857, a keen price for a starter home in this part of the city. For context, the average price per m² in the area is €10,052, so this listing represents good value. See how it compares to other apartments in Amsterdam.

Filips van Almondekwartier: a quiet, urban enclave

The neighbourhood Filips van Almondekwartier is a small, densely built neighbourhood with just over 1,000 residents. It's a young area, half the population is between 25 and 45, and many live alone (365 single-person households). There are few children, so the streets are calm. The neighbourhood has no reviews yet, but the figures speak for themselves: it's very urban (11,107 addresses per km²) yet quiet enough for a good night's sleep. Most homes are pre-war (87.5% built before 1945), and the mix is entirely flats.

Daily life on the street

For your morning bread, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and an Aldi and Dirk are a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are on your doorstep: Islamitische basisschool Al Maes and Joop en Willy Westerweel. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk, and the nearest train station is 3.1 km away, better for cycling than walking. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and leisure options you'd expect from the capital.
