Van der Helstpleinbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1905 apartment on Rustenburgerstraat has a lived-in feel that comes with age and character. With 88 m² of space, it's noticeably larger than many flats in the area. The energy label is D, so heating costs are something to factor in. At €850,000, the price is 45% above the neighbourhood average of €585,179, that's on the high side, even for a bigger home. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size.
The Van der Helstpleinbuurt is a lively part of the Nieuwe Pijp, with a mix of young professionals and families. One resident sums it up: "It's really a good neighbourhood. It's easily accessible by metro and tram, except at night. There's only 1 bus in the area and that one at 5 in the morning (to Schiphol) is super annoying. Furthermore, it's nicely green with parks and trees in the neighbourhood. There are also many amenities; shops, bakeries, butchers, eateries, really everything. Also, it's very safe, there are occasional burglaries but they are minor and only target shops. Furthermore, no one has been murdered or large drug labs found in years. Just lock your bike properly. The houses are nice and good, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!" That's based on one review. The neighbourhood Van der Helstpleinbuurt has a high density of addresses, typical for central Amsterdam.
For daily shopping, an Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and a Lidl is just around the corner. There are also several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. For school runs, the 3e Daltonschool Alberdingk Thijm (primary) is a couple of streets away, and the Berlage Lyceum (secondary) is about a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers a wide range of amenities, with parks and restaurants nearby.

About Rustenburgerstraat 128H, Amsterdam
The asking price is €850,000, which is 45% above the neighbourhood average of €585,179. However, this apartment is also 47% larger than the average (88 m² vs 60 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €9,659, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €10,025 per m². So while the total price is high, you are getting more space for your money compared to other homes in the area.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, about 32% of homes have label D or lower, while 24% have label A or better. It's worth checking the specific insulation and heating system when viewing.
The neighbourhood is well connected by metro and tram, as noted by a resident. The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short tram ride. There is also a bus that runs to Schiphol early in the morning. Overall, getting around Amsterdam without a car is easy from here.
The neighbourhood has a mix of residents: about 40% are aged 25-45, and 40% of households are single-person. There are also families with children (about 9% of households). The area is considered safe, with occasional burglaries targeting shops rather than homes. One resident says it's a good neighbourhood with a green environment.
In the Van der Helstpleinbuurt, sold homes were on the market for an average of 32 days. That's a reasonable timeframe, suggesting a balanced market. With 39 homes currently for sale, there is some choice, but the high price of this apartment may mean it takes a bit longer to find a buyer.
There are several schools within walking distance. For primary education, the 3e Daltonschool Alberdingk Thijm is about 238 m away, and the 9e Montessorischool De Scholekster is 378 m away. For secondary education, the Berlage Lyceum is 456 m away, and IVKO - Leren van Kunst is 325 m away. So school runs are easy on foot.
