Meer en Oever, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis two-bedroom apartment on Vrijzicht sits in a leafy corner of Osdorp, where the streets are quiet and the air feels fresher than you'd expect this close to the city. At €400,000, the asking price is 31% below the neighbourhood average, a keen entry point for a home in this part of Amsterdam, especially when you compare it with other apartments in Amsterdam.
Residents describe the neighbourhood Meer en Oever as a place where you get the best of both worlds: city amenities without the city chaos. One resident says: "My neighbourhood is very beautiful and easily accessible, many shops, public transport, nice green surroundings, plenty of living space, tidy neighbourhood." Another adds: "The neighbourhood is nicely laid out with lots of greenery, open waterways, very good amenities, perfect public transport, plenty of parking space. It doesn't get any better in Amsterdam and thankfully still tourist-free." The area is densely urban (over 3,000 addresses per km²), yet the streets feel open thanks to the many parks and water features. Most homes are flats, and about 45% are owner-occupied.
For your morning bread run, AH XL is just around the corner, and Jumbo and Dirk are a couple of streets away. Families have IKC Het Talent (a five-minute walk) and the Lukasschool (a ten-minute walk) for primary education, while the Calandlyceum is within walking distance for secondary school. The municipality Amsterdam keeps the neighbourhood well-maintained, and the nearby park is a couple of streets away for a weekend stroll.
At the time of writing, this home is listed through two channels, including LDB Makelaardij. The price reflects the smaller floor area (67 m²) compared to the neighbourhood average, so it's a realistic option for buyers who prioritise location over square metres.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is nicely laid out with lots of greenery, open waterways, very good amenities, perfect public transport, plenty of parking space. It doesn't get any better in Amsterdam and thankfully still tourist-free. The centre and Vondelpark are nearby but often I don't feel like leaving the neighbourhood at all. People in the neighbourhood are friendly, quiet and a bit to themselves but I like that. Never experienced any aggression or crime!! I hope my neighbourhood doesn't become hip and stays like this!
Auto-translated to English by AII was born here in 1963 and have seen many changes. I feel perfectly at ease in Amsterdam Nieuw West; it keeps looking better and better.
