Weespertrekvaart, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 49 m² apartment on Meerluchtlaan is part of a very recent development in the Weespertrekvaart neighbourhood. Built in 2024 and carrying an A++ energy label, it is as efficient as they come. The asking price of €450,000 is 46% below the neighbourhood average of €827,938, which is keen given the smaller floor area, 40% less than the local average of 82 m². For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one is priced to move.
The Weespertrekvaart neighbourhood is still taking shape. With 1,405 residents, it is a young area, most inhabitants are between 25 and 45, and households are small (average 1.4 people). The single-person household count is high at 715. One resident, who has lived here less than six months, says: "I've lived here for less than six months and had high expectations, unfortunately they haven't been met and I feel unsafe in the neighbourhood." That is just one review, but it suggests the area is still finding its feet. The housing stock is almost entirely post-2010 (97%), so the built environment is new, but the community feel may take time.
For daily groceries, the nearest supermarket is an AH to go just around the corner, with an Aldi and a full Albert Heijn a ten-minute walk away. There are several schools within walking distance: Montessorischool de Amstel (primary) is on your doorstep, and Daltonschool Spinoza20first (secondary) is a couple of streets away. A park or public garden is a ten-minute walk, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The municipality of Amsterdam oversees this rapidly developing part of the city.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Bob! Makelaardij, Bob! Makelaardij, and Bob! Makelaardij.
