Willibrordusbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Rustenburgerdwarsstraat sits in the lively Nieuwe Pijp, a neighbourhood known for its market, cafes and canals.

The Willibrordusbuurt is a dense, urban pocket of the Pijp with a mix of residents. Based on two reviews, opinions are mixed: one resident describes it as "sometimes nice, sometimes a lot of poverty, sometimes chaotic, sometimes ok," while another calls it "a nice, safe neighbourhood, beautiful buildings and it's central." The area has a high address density (over 11,000 per km²), so it feels bustling. Most homes are pre-war, but this apartment is a newer build from 1997. For more on the area, see the Willibrordusbuurt neighbourhood.
Daily errands are easy: an Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and another is a five-minute walk away. For primary schools, the 4e Montessorischool de Pinksterbloem is just around the corner, and secondary school IVKO is a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood has a park within a five-minute walk, and plenty of restaurants and cafes are nearby. The municipality of Amsterdam provides all the urban amenities you would expect from a central location. See the municipality of Amsterdam for more.
At present, the home is listed through several channels, including JLG Real Estate. The asking price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but the larger floor area and modern energy label justify the premium.
