Van Ostadestraat 388H, Amsterdam

This apartment on Van Ostadestraat sits in the lively Nieuwe Pijp area of Amsterdam. At €424,750, the asking price is 33% below the neighbourhood average of €638,318, partly because the 47 m² floor area is 30% smaller than the typical 67 m² in the area. For context, that's a keen price for a starter home in this part of the city, especially compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.

Willibrordusbuurt

The Willibrordusbuurt is a dense, urban pocket with a very high address density (11,632 per km²). Most households are single-person (1,265 out of 1,875), and the average household size is just 1.4. Two residents reviewed the area: one calls it "messy, mixed.. little greenery" and notes it's "sometimes nice, sometimes a lot of poverty, sometimes chaotic, sometimes ok." The other says it's a "nice neighbourhood and nice people" and finds it "central" and "safe." Based on these two reviews, opinions are mixed. The neighbourhood Willibrordusbuurt has a high proportion of pre-war housing (75% built before 1945), which gives the streets their classic Amsterdam character.

Life on the street

For daily groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Lidl is a couple of streets away. There are several schools within walking distance: IVKO - Leren van Kunst (secondary, 185 m) and the 4e Montessorischool de Pinksterbloem (primary, 331 m) are both a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers extensive public transport, with a train station 1.8 km away, a twenty-minute walk or short cycle.
