A classic Amsterdam apartment
This apartment on Roggeveenstraat sits in the Zeeheldenbuurt, a pocket of the Spaarndammerbuurt/Zeeheldenbuurt district. Built in 1912, it carries the character of the old city, with a floor area of 50 m². The rent of €2,800 a month is on the high side compared with the average of €2,750 for the one rental currently available in the neighbourhood. For context, apartments in Amsterdam typically command a premium, and this one is no exception.
The Zeeheldenbuurt
The Zeeheldenbuurt neighbourhood is a close-knit community, according to the one review we have. A resident describes it as "Clean and tidy", adding: "Super nice, we live together as a family, help each other keep the stairwell clean, weed, renovate, also keep an eye on each other's things, etc." The area is home to around 1,925 people, with a mix of ages and a high share of single-person households. It feels like a place where neighbours know each other, and the streets are kept in good order.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy from here. For groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, with Albert Heijn a couple of streets away and Ekoplaza a five-minute walk. For families, De Zeeheld primary school is on your doorstep, and Montessori Basisschool de Eilanden is just around the corner. The wider municipality of Amsterdam offers plenty beyond the immediate area, but this street has the essentials covered.

Frequently asked questions
About Roggeveenstraat 31, Amsterdam
Is €2,800 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €2,800 is slightly above the average of €2,750 for the one rental currently listed in the Zeeheldenbuurt. That average is based on a single property, so it gives a limited picture. The apartment is 50 m², which works out at €56 per m², higher than the neighbourhood average of €45.83 per m². Whether it is fair depends on what you value in the location and the building.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration, recorded in the national energy label database. A C label is in the middle of the scale, meaning the home is neither the most nor the least efficient. You can expect moderate energy costs, but the label does not say anything about the condition of the building itself.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 2 km away. That is a manageable distance if you commute by rail, though you would need to factor in a short cycle or bus ride to get there. The exact station is not named in the listing, but the distance gives you a sense of the connection.
What are the nearest schools?
De Zeeheld primary school is just 110 m away, making it a very short walk for families. Montessori Basisschool de Eilanden is 298 m away, and Daltonschool De Spaarndammerhout is 760 m. All three are primary schools, so for secondary education you would look further afield, with the nearest at 1.3 km.
What is the neighbourhood like according to residents?
Based on one review, the Zeeheldenbuurt is described as "Clean and tidy". The resident mentions that neighbours help each other keep the stairwell clean, weed, renovate, and keep an eye on each other's things. It paints a picture of a cooperative, friendly community where people look out for one another.
