One resident describes Duivendrecht as 'a village between cities', and that sums it up well. It is child-friendly, with a strong sense of togetherness, neighbours chat on the village square and many people grew up here. The same resident notes: 'It is not often appreciated if noise is made late at night because most people have to work and/or have children who need to get up early.' So if you like parties, this might not be your place. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with many 25- to 45-year-olds and a fair share of families. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Duivendrecht.
For your morning bread, the PLUS supermarket is just around the corner. There are also an Albert Heijn and a Jumbo a ten-minute walk away. Two primary schools, A. Bekemaschool and Openbare Basisschool De Grote Beer, are a couple of streets away, making the school run easy. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a restaurant is just around the corner. The municipality Ouder-Amstel keeps the village green spaces well maintained.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Your Home Makelaars Amsterdam and also appears on Funda, so you can find it through several channels.

Very good · 1 resident
Overall a very child-friendly neighbourhood. It is not often appreciated if noise is made late at night because most people have to work and/or have children who need to get up early. Keep that in mind because if you like parties, Duivendrecht might not be your place. It is a village, located between Diemen and Amsterdam Zuidoost, among others. Many people grew up here themselves and know each other. There is a sense of togetherness and often a chat is made with neighbours on the village square. Most children go to one of the two primary schools that Duivendrecht has. That makes it easy and pleasant to arrange playdates because almost all friends live in Duivendrecht. Because the metro stops nearby and a bus runs through the village, Duivendrecht is easily accessible by public transport. At Duivendrecht station you can even take the train. The village has a supermarket, chemist, tobacconist and eateries, among others. For shopping, it is best to go to one of the shopping centres in the surrounding municipalities. You can shop at the Amsterdamse Poort in Zuidoost, Diemen Centrum and Oostpoort in Amsterdam Oost. A nice, quiet village that you have to love.

Duivendrecht is described by residents as a child-friendly village between cities. It is quiet, with a strong community feel, neighbours know each other and chat on the square. The metro and train make it easy to reach Amsterdam, but late-night noise is not appreciated.
Duivendrecht station is 1.6 km away, about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. From there you can take trains to Amsterdam, Schiphol and beyond.

With 79 m² and two primary schools within walking distance, it could work for a small family. The neighbourhood is very child-friendly, with a park nearby and a safe, quiet street. However, the apartment has no garden mentioned, so outdoor space is limited.
Energy label D is average for a 1969 apartment. It means the home is not as efficient as modern builds, so heating costs will be moderate. You may want to consider improvements like better insulation over time.
