Trompbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 67 m² apartment on Maarten Harpertszoon Trompstraat sits in the Trompbuurt, a pocket of Amsterdam that feels both urban and village-like. The building dates from 1910 and has an F energy label, so heating costs are something to budget for. At €595,000, the asking price is about 20% below the neighbourhood average of €741,842, which makes it a keen entry point compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.
Two residents give the Trompbuurt an average 7.69 out of 10. One describes it as a "cosy neighbourhood" with an ice cream shop and a playground, though they wish there were more facilities for older children. Another says: "It's nice there and friendly people. But a sense of togetherness is lacking and I don't have much contact with my neighbours either, which I regret." The neighbourhood Trompbuurt is densely populated, with many young adults and a high proportion of single-person households. Most homes are pre-war apartments, and the area has a very strong urban feel.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Three primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Admiraal De Ruyterschool, Islamitische basisschool Al Maes, and De Visserschool. The municipality Amsterdam offers a dense network of restaurants, a park, and a library within walking distance. A train station is 3.5 km away, so you'll likely rely on tram or bike for longer trips.

It's nice there and friendly people. But a sense of togetherness is lacking and I don't have much contact with my neighbours either, which I regret. My primary school days in this neighbourhood were really perfect and the restaurants and shops are also very good. But there are many students and expats, which makes me feel a certain divide and not much community. I myself would like to move out, but that's certainly not possible in my neighbourhood because they are far too expensive.
Auto-translated to English by AINice and cosy, there is an ice cream shop and a playground called de ruige speeltijn but now it's for babies because everything is getting super small, which is a shame, but the rest is great. We get along well and some of my friends live very close by, which is also nice. But I do think there should be more playgrounds for older children, because babies are fine at home too, but older kids just end up on their phones or laptops, so more playgrounds for older children, that's the only thing.

About Maarten Harpertszoon Trompstraat 2-4, Amsterdam
The asking price is about 20% below the average asking price in the Trompbuurt (€741,842) and also below the median (€695,000). Given the 67 m² floor area, that works out to roughly €8,881 per m², while the neighbourhood average is €9,305 per m². So it's priced keenly, though the F energy label means higher running costs.
The apartment has energy label F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. In the Trompbuurt, only 10% of homes have a label D or lower, so this home is less efficient than most. Expect higher heating bills and consider whether you'd want to invest in insulation or other improvements.
The Trompbuurt has a mix of residents, but only about 345 households with children out of 1,520 total. One resident notes that playgrounds are more geared towards babies, and older children have fewer options. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but secondary schools are a bit further (0.7 km).
The nearest train station is 3.5 km away, so it's not a quick walk. However, the area is very densely built (over 11,500 addresses per km²), so trams and buses are likely frequent.
Currently, 19 apartments are for sale in the Trompbuurt, with prices ranging from €450,000 to €1,450,000. The average floor area is 81 m², so this 67 m² apartment is slightly smaller than average. In the past year, 80 homes were sold, with an average selling price of €691,631.
Residents describe it as cosy and friendly, but note a lack of community feeling due to many students and expats. One resident says: "It's nice there and friendly people. But a sense of togetherness is lacking." Another appreciates the ice cream shop and playground, but wishes for more facilities for older kids.
