Transvaalbuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 57 m² apartment on Reitzstraat sits in the heart of the Transvaalbuurt, a neighbourhood with a real city buzz. The home dates from 1924 but has an A energy label, so it's efficient as well as characterful. At €450,000, the asking price matches the neighbourhood median exactly, which feels fair given the size and location. For context, the average price per m² in the area is €9,282, and this flat comes in at about €7,895 per m², a keen price compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood Transvaalbuurt-West is densely urban, with over 8,300 addresses per km². It's a young area, most residents are between 25 and 45, and many live alone. Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "I have lived in the Transvaalbuurt for 79 years... Transvaal is my life!" Another is less positive: "People are not okay, they talk too much about you with lies, attack you without reason." So it's a neighbourhood with strong character, but not for everyone.
For groceries, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Vomar is just around the corner. Schools are close too: Integraal Kindcentrum De Kaap is a couple of streets away, and IBS De Vijgenboom is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, with a restaurant just 200 metres away and a park within a ten-minute walk.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including van der Linden Groep, Pararius and Funda.

People are not okay, they talk too much about you with lies, attack you without reason and believe what other people say about you without asking what your story is.
