Scheldebuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis rental apartment on Scheldeplein sits in the heart of Scheldebuurt-West, a friendly pocket of Amsterdam Zuid. With 131 m² of living space, it is considerably larger than the average rental in the area. The home dates from 1929 but has an A+ energy label, so it is both characterful and efficient. At €5,950 per month, the rent is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €3,811, but the extra space and location justify the premium. For context, this is one of the larger apartments in Amsterdam currently available.
Scheldebuurt-West feels like a small community. One resident, who has lived here for 19 years, describes it as a 'child-friendly cosy little village' where neighbours know each other and care for one another.

Most households are singles or couples without children, and the streets are lined with classic Amsterdam architecture. This is a neighbourhood Scheldebuurt-West that balances urban convenience with a close-knit feel.
Your morning coffee is just steps away: Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Ekoplaza and Coop are just around the corner. For fresh bread or a quick bite, the restaurant is handy. Families will appreciate the Dongeschool (primary, 205 metres) and Basisschool Anne Frank, while older children can walk to Vossius Gymnasium or Mediacollege Amsterdam.

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.
