Buiksloterham-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 2022-built apartment on Leen Jongewaardkade sits in the up-and-coming Buiksloterham-Zuid area of Amsterdam-Noord. With 177 m² of living space and an A+ energy label, it's a highly efficient home in a neighbourhood of brand-new, energy-efficient houses. The asking price of €1,525,000 is 36% above the neighbourhood average of €1,124,231, but the floor area is 61% larger than the typical 110 m², so the price per m² is actually in line with the market. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size.
Buiksloterham-Zuid is a recently developed district with a small but growing community. Based on two reviews, residents are positive: one says, "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." Another calls it a "lovely neighbourhood" and says they're "very happy." The area is densely populated (2,685 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of apartments (89% of homes are flats). Many households are singles or couples without children, and the average household size is 1.8. The neighbourhood Buiksloterham-Zuid is still evolving, with public transport connections noted as a current drawback.
For your daily shopping, Vomar is just over a ten-minute walk away, and Albert Heijn is a similar distance. There are several primary schools within a five- to ten-minute walk, including Dalton Kind Centrum De IJsbreker and Kindcentrum De Baanbreker. A GP is just around the corner, and a restaurant is a couple of streets away. The municipality Amsterdam offers extensive amenities, but the nearest train station is 5.2 km away, so you'll rely on other transport for longer journeys.

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.
