L-buurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 86 m² apartment on Leksmondhof sits in a quiet part of Amsterdam's L-buurt, a neighbourhood built in the late 1970s. The home has an energy label D, which is less efficient than most of the current supply in the area, something to factor in. At €350,000, the asking price is in line with the neighbourhood median of €349,500, making it a fair proposition compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.
The L-buurt is a residential area with a mix of ages: around a third of residents are between 25 and 45, and a fifth are 65 or older. It's a neighbourhood of mostly single-person households, with many flats and no detached houses. The area feels green, a park or public garden is just a couple of streets away. Based on three reviews, residents appreciate the quiet streets and the proximity to shops and schools. One resident says: "It's a peaceful area with everything you need nearby." Another notes: "Good connections to the rest of the city." For more context, see the L-buurt neighbourhood.
Daily errands are easy: an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and an Aldi is a five-minute walk. For primary schools, the Openbare Daltonschool Nellestein is on your doorstep, and several others are within a ten-minute walk. The area is well served by public transport, with a train station three kilometres away. The neighbourhood has a strong urban feel, with an address density of over 2,000 addresses per km².
