The Trompbuurt is a dense, urban area with a very strong city feel (over 11,500 addresses per km²). Residents give it a 7.69 out of 10 based on two reviews. One resident describes it as a "cosy neighbourhood" with an ice cream shop and a playground, though they note that playgrounds for older children are lacking. Another says it has a "pleasant atmosphere but not much neighbourhood feeling", friendly people and good restaurants, but a divide between students and expats and longer-term residents. The area is home to many young adults (25-45) and a high share of single-person households. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Trompbuurt.
Daily errands are easy: an Aldi is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. For primary schools, the Admiraal De Ruyterschool is a five-minute walk, and De Visserschool is similarly close. The neighbourhood also has a restaurant and a park within a few minutes' walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and transport links you'd expect from the capital.

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 34-1, Amsterdam
The asking price is 22% below the average asking price in the Trompbuurt (€741,842) and also below the median (€695,000). Given the 65 m² floor area, the price per m² is about €8,846, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €9,305 per m². So it appears priced for the area.
The apartment has energy label C. This is a fairly average rating for a pre-war building, it means the home is reasonably efficient but not as good as modern standards. You can expect moderate energy costs, but it's worth checking the exact insulation and heating system.
The nearest train station is 3.5 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a tram, bus or bike to reach it. The area is well served by trams and buses for local travel.
Based on two resident reviews, opinions are mixed. One resident finds it cosy with friendly neighbours and local amenities, but wishes for more playgrounds for older children. Another notes a pleasant atmosphere but a lack of community feeling, partly due to many students and expats. The area has many young adults and single-person households.
There are currently 19 apartments for sale in the Trompbuurt, with prices ranging from €450,000 to €1,450,000. The average floor area is 81 m², so this 65 m² apartment is slightly smaller than average.
Several primary schools are within walking distance: Admiraal De Ruyterschool (215 m), De Visserschool (233 m), and Islamitische basisschool Al Maes (293 m). Secondary schools are about 0.7 km away on average.
