Centrumeiland, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 2022 apartment on Gamerenstraat brings a fresh, modern feel to Amsterdam's newest island neighbourhood. With an A+++ energy label, it's as efficient as they come. At €385,000, the asking price is 47% below the neighbourhood average of €722,737, partly because the 53 m² floor area is 57% smaller than the typical home here. For context, that's a keen price for a new-build apartment in this part of town, especially compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.

The neighbourhood has a mix of families and couples, with average household sizes around 2.2 people. Incomes are typical for the city, and the neighbourhood Centrumeiland has a low crime rate with just 36 incidents recorded.
For your morning bread, Dekamarkt is just around the corner. For a bigger shop, Albert Heijn, Lidl and AH XL are a ten-minute walk away. There are two primary schools within a couple of streets: De Schatkaart is on your doorstep, and Laterna Magica is a five-minute walk. Secondary school Montessori Lyceum Terra Nova is also within walking distance. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, but here on the island you're surrounded by water and green spaces, the nearest park is just a couple of streets away.
