Buitenveldert-Zuidwest, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Rooswijck sits in a calm, leafy part of Amsterdam. At 76 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the price of €525,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, 39% below the typical asking price of €865,600. That's partly because the home needs some energy upgrades (label E), but it's a fair entry point for this area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, and this one is priced to reflect its size and label.
Buitenveldert-Zuidwest is a quiet, reasonably cosy neighbourhood with good accessibility. One resident says: "Nice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood.

The asking price of €525,000 is 39% below the neighbourhood average of €865,600, but the apartment is also 33% smaller than the average (76 m² vs 113 m²) and has an energy label E. Given these factors, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact, older apartment in this area.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. In the neighbourhood, most homes for sale have better labels (only 29% are D or lower). You can expect higher heating costs compared to a more modern home, but the lower purchase price partly compensates.
Jumbo is just 39 metres away, literally on your doorstep. Aldi is 686 metres (a ten-minute walk) and Albert Heijn is 820 metres (about ten minutes). So daily shopping is very convenient.
Secondary schools CSB Amsterdam and De Apollo are both within 300 metres (a couple of streets away). Primary school St. Jozefschool is 639 metres (a ten-minute walk). There are also several other schools within cycling distance.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle.

How residents experience their municipality
Een hele fijne, rustige buurt met veel groen en geweldige bomen die verkoeling en ontspanning bieden. 's nachts is het er stil en donker. Dat vind ik belangrijk voor de dieren. De buurt is goed bereikbaar met metro 54 en voorzieningen zijn op loopafstand in winkelcentrum de Poort. 1 ding is een ongelofelijke doorn in het oog en dat is de hygiene. Het is dagelijks een puinzoo bij de vuilcontainers. Zwerfafval waait overal naar toe. En hoewel we met een aantal bewoners dagelijks 'prikken' en opruimen is het een never ending story. Ik zou zo graag zien dat daar een oplossing voor komt.

Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
