Stuyvesantstraat 11-1
Paramariboplein en omgeving, Amsterdam
AreaA compact Amsterdam apartment with a classic feel
This 48 m² apartment on Stuyvesantstraat sits in a quiet pocket of Amsterdam-West, a neighbourhood that residents describe as 'a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities'. Built in 1927 and with energy label C, it's a typical early-20th-century Amsterdam flat. At €450,000, the asking price is 29% below the neighbourhood average of €634,359, which makes it a keen entry point into the area, especially given that most apartments in Amsterdam in this price bracket are smaller or need updating.
Paramariboplein e.o.: a neighbourhood in transition
The neighbourhood Paramariboplein e.o. is a mixed bag, according to its three reviews. One resident calls it 'quiet and beautiful', noting it's 'still becoming more beautiful'. Another finds it 'cosy', with 'lots of squares for your children and also many babysitting houses, so actually perfect for a family'. A third, however, says it's 'ruined', 'the residents are antisocial, no one keeps the neighbourhood tidy, the gardens are used as dog walking spots'. The area is densely populated (over 10,000 addresses per km²) and mostly consists of pre-war flats, with a high proportion of single-person households. Average incomes are modest, and the housing stock is almost entirely apartments.
