Scheldebuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1935 apartment on the Uiterwaardenstraat has been brought up to date with an A energy label, so you get the charm of an old building without the draughts. At €899,000 it sits above the neighbourhood median of €775,000, but given the efficient label and the fact that only 29% of homes here are owner-occupied, it's a fair price for a well-maintained flat. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its combination of age and efficiency.
One resident, who has lived here for 19 years, calls it a 'child-friendly cosy little village' where 'most people know each other and care about one another.' The neighbourhood is densely built (7,303 addresses per km²) and very urban, yet it has a village feel thanks to regular events and strong neighbourly ties. Many households are singles or couples without children, but there are also plenty of families. The neighbourhood Scheldebuurt-West is a tight-knit community where people look out for each other.
For your morning bread, Dirk is just around the corner, Coop is a couple of streets away, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. The nearest primary school, Basisschool Anne Frank 6e Montessori-School, is on your doorstep, and two secondary schools are within a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, but here you have the essentials close by without the tourist crowds.

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.
