Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Stolwijkstraat brings you the atmosphere of 1929 Amsterdam: high ceilings, original details and a sense of history. At 53 m² it is compact but well laid out, and with an energy label E you know the heating bills will be noticeable. The asking price of €449,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average, about 30% below the typical €645,216, partly because the energy label is less efficient than most homes for sale here. For context, that is a significant discount for apartments in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood is densely built and very urban, with over 6,800 addresses per km². Most households are single people (795 out of 1,525), and the average household size is just 1.7. There are few children, so the area has a grown-up, city feel. The housing stock is entirely pre-war flats, and 43% are owner-occupied. No resident reviews are available for this neighbourhood, but the figures paint a picture of a compact, lively pocket of Amsterdam. The Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West neighbourhood is part of the Hoofddorppleinbuurt district.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Dirk is a couple of streets away. There is also another Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk.
