Very good · 1 resident
I have been living in this neighbourhood for 19 years now and have a good relationship with our neighbours. Fun events are regularly organised that the neighbourhood can join in with. My children went to school here and have built up many friends in the area. It is a cosy little village, most people know each other and care about one another.

About Rooseveltlaan 209-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 52% above the neighbourhood average of €852,061 and the highest of the 33 homes currently for sale in Scheldebuurt-West. However, the apartment is also 70% larger than the typical home in the area (163 m² vs 96 m²). Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra space and pre-war character, especially given the energy label G.

At 163 m², this apartment is 70% larger than the average home in Scheldebuurt-West, which is 96 m². It is also the largest of the 33 homes currently for sale in the area. The generous floor area is a key selling point.
