Orteliusbuurt-Midden, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 73 m² apartment on Hoofdweg sits in a lively part of Amsterdam, where the streets are lined with early 20th-century architecture. The home has a B energy label and was built in 1925, so you get high ceilings and original details. At €575,000, the price is above the neighbourhood average of €502,450, but the floor area is a third larger than the typical 55 m² in the area, which makes it a fair proposition. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its size.
The neighbourhood Orteliusbuurt-Midden is a compact, urban neighbourhood with a strong sense of community. Based on two reviews, residents are enthusiastic: one says it's a "nice up-and-coming neighbourhood with lots of green," noting the Rembrandtpark just around the corner and easy tram and bus access. Another simply says "Love it" and wouldn't swap it for anything. The area is densely populated (over 9,000 addresses per km²), with many singles and young adults, and a mix of rental and owner-occupied homes. It's a place where the streets feel alive and well cared for.
For your morning bread, Dirk is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn and Aldi are a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, Joop en Willy Westerweel, is a five-minute walk, and there are several others within a ten-minute stroll. The Rembrandtpark is on your doorstep for a run or a quiet moment. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and transport links you'd expect from the capital, with a train station about 2.4 km away.

About Hoofdweg 289H, Amsterdam
The asking price of €575,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €502,450 and the median of €450,000. However, this apartment is 73 m², which is 33% larger than the typical 55 m² in the area. The price per m² works out to about €7,877, which is below the neighbourhood average of €9,397 per m². So you're getting more space for a lower per-square-metre rate, which makes the price reasonable given the size.
Orteliusbuurt-Midden is a densely populated urban area with a mix of young professionals and singles. Residents praise its green spaces, especially the nearby Rembrandtpark, and the easy access to public transport. The streets are generally clean and well organised. It's a lively, up-and-coming neighbourhood with a strong sense of community.
The nearest supermarket is Dirk, just 72 metres away on the same street. There are also an Aldi and an Albert Heijn within about 500 metres, so daily shopping is very convenient.
The closest primary school is Joop en Willy Westerweel, about 300 metres away. Several other primary schools are within a 10-minute walk, including Islamitische basisschool Al Maes and Rosa Boekdrukker. Secondary schools are about 1.8 km away.
Energy label B is efficient. It means the home has good insulation and heating, so your energy bills will be moderate. In the neighbourhood, 20% of homes have label B, while 45% have a lower label (D or worse), so this apartment is above average in energy performance.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The apartment is on the first floor (H indicates a high floor), so it likely has no private outdoor space. However, the Rembrandtpark is just around the corner for green space.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms. With 73 m², it could have two or three rooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
