Vrolikstraat 311E
Oosterparkbuurt-Zuidwest · 1091 VE Amsterdam
A classic Amsterdam apartment with a modern label
This two-room apartment on Vrolikstraat 311E sits in the Oosterparkbuurt-Zuidwest, a pocket of Amsterdam Oost where the streets are quiet and green, yet the city hums just around the corner. Built in 1900, it carried an energy label A, which was an efficient label, so expect relatively modest energy costs. The asking price was €495,000, which was 21% below the neighbourhood average last known asking price of €624,304. For context, the average asking price for apartments in Amsterdam reflected the wider market, but this home was priced below that local average. This home has not been online since 29 October 2026.
The home itself
The apartment has two rooms in total: one bedroom and one bathroom, spread over a single floor. The living area was 56 m² according to both the BAG registration and the agent's listing, so there was no discrepancy to note. The home was built in 1900, a fact that speaks to its age, and the energy label A suggests the current owner has invested in efficiency. The listing did not mention a garden, balcony, or garage, so outdoor space was not part of this offering.

Another, a lifelong local, notes: "Everything is nearby, from Albert Heijn to the hairdresser. Also, Oosterpark is within walking distance and there are plenty of trams and buses passing by."
