Oosterparkbuurt-Zuidoost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Vrolikstraat in Amsterdam-Oost sits on a leafy street that feels surprisingly calm for being so central. The listing does not state an energy label, so the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €575,000, the asking price is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €787,700, though the floor area (58 m²) is also 27% smaller than the local average of 79 m², so the price per square metre is in line with the market. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size.
This part of Oost is dense and lively, with a very strong urban feel (address density of 8,811 addresses per km²). Most homes are pre-war, and two-thirds of the housing stock dates from before 1945. The area is popular with young professionals and couples, single-person households make up a large share, and the average household size is just 1.7 people. Based on two reviews, residents have mixed feelings: one calls it 'Sketchy' and notes 'Lots of crime in the neighbourhood', while another says 'I've been living on Vrolikstraat in Oost for over six months now and I feel so happy here. Ten minutes by bike from my work, a green quiet street, and yet right in the middle of the most beautiful city in the country (in the world)!' For more context, see the Oosterparkbuurt-Zuidoost neighbourhood.
Daily errands are easy on foot. For groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, Dirk is a couple of streets away, and Lidl is a ten-minute walk. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Openbare Basisschool De Dapper and IKC Frankendael, both a few minutes' walk. Secondary options like Montessori Lyceum Oostpoort and Havo De Hof are also close by. The Oosterpark itself is on your doorstep, perfect for a morning jog or an evening stroll. For broader context, the municipality of Amsterdam offers a wide range of amenities and transport links.
