Elzenhagen-Zuid, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Meerluststraat sits in the up-and-coming Elzenhagen-Zuid neighbourhood. This listing does not state a year of construction. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €400,000, the asking price is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €553,973, though the floor area of 64 m² is 26% smaller than the local average of 87 m², so the price per square metre is in line with the market.

Elzenhagen-Zuid is a densely built neighbourhood with a very strong urban feel (address density of 3,570 addresses per km²). The population is young, over half of residents are between 25 and 45, and most households are single-person (980 out of 1,625 residents). There are few children, and the housing stock consists entirely of apartments, all built after 2010. No resident reviews are available for this neighbourhood, so the character is best judged by a visit. The Elzenhagen-Zuid neighbourhood is part of the larger Elzenhagen district.
For your morning bread and groceries, an AH to go is just around the corner, and a Jumbo and Lidl are a couple of streets away. Primary schools include Kindercampus Mokum and abbs Elzenhagen, both within a five-minute walk. For secondary education, Bredero is just around the corner. A park or public garden is a five-minute walk away, and a restaurant is also within walking distance. The area falls under the municipality of Amsterdam, which offers extensive amenities.
