A pre-war flat in the heart of the Pijp

This 1925 apartment on Saffierstraat sits in the lively Diamantbuurt, part of Amsterdam's beloved Zuid Pijp. At 59 m², it's a compact but classic Amsterdam flat with an F energy label, meaning heating costs will be significant. Priced at €500,000, that's about 13% below the neighbourhood average of €575,000, a keen price for a home in this sought-after area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its value.

Diamantbuurt: a mixed bag according to residents

The Diamantbuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood with over 10,000 addresses per km², very much city living. One resident gives it a 9, saying: "Very nice neighbourhood. Residents are very friendly, communicative and good at cooperating." Another is less enthusiastic, rating it 4.25: "I've lived here for more than ten years and I think there are few parking spaces here and the neighbours are very rude." A third review is neutral. Based on three reviews, the average score is 6.3. The neighbourhood Diamantbuurt is home to many singles and couples, with few families.

Daily life on Saffierstraat

For your morning bread, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and another is a couple of streets away. A Lidl is a ten-minute walk. For school runs, the Berlage Lyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and the 4e Montessorischool de Pinksterbloem (primary) is also within walking distance. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and dining options you'd expect from the capital, with a restaurant just around the corner and a park a couple of streets away.

Very nice neighbourhood. Residents are very friendly, communicative and good at cooperating. We did many activities in the summer, in the community centre and with outings. It's just that my home is small for us. Otherwise I would never want to move. I would like to continue living in this home. (Willem Passtoorstraat 36C, 1073 HZ. Amsterdam.)

Not great

I've lived here for more than ten years and I think there are few parking spaces here and the neighbours are very rude.

Frequently asked questions

About Saffierstraat 3B, Amsterdam

Is €500,000 a fair price for this apartment?

At €500,000, this apartment is priced below the Diamantbuurt average of €575,000 and the median of €575,000. Given the 59 m² floor area, that works out to about €8,475 per m², compared to the neighbourhood average of €9,989 per m². So it's on the keen side, though the F energy label means higher running costs.

What is the Diamantbuurt like to live in?

The Diamantbuurt is a very densely populated area in Amsterdam Zuid, with mostly pre-war buildings. Residents' opinions vary: one praises the friendly community, while another complains about parking and rude neighbours. It's a typical city neighbourhood with many singles and couples, and a mix of shops and restaurants nearby.

How far is the nearest train station?

The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a 17-minute walk or a short bike ride. This gives you access to the wider Amsterdam region and beyond.

What is the energy label F likely to mean for costs?

Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. The home dates from 1925 and likely lacks modern insulation. It's worth factoring in potential upgrades, though the exact costs depend on usage and future improvements.

Are there good schools nearby?

Yes, several schools are within walking distance. The Berlage Lyceum (secondary) is about 400 m away, and the 4e Montessorischool de Pinksterbloem (primary) is about 470 m away. There are also other primary and secondary schools within a short distance.

How many apartments are for sale in the Diamantbuurt?

Currently, there are 13 apartments for sale in the Diamantbuurt, with prices ranging from €325,000 to €1,100,000. The average price per m² is €9,989, and the average floor area is 58 m², so this 59 m² apartment is typical in size.
