Willemsparkbuurt-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Waldeck Pyrmontlaan sits in the stately Willemsparkbuurt-Noord, one of Amsterdam's most elegant neighbourhoods. At €1,695,000 for 111 m², the price is 46% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €3,129,815, a keen entry point for this area, especially given the energy label A. The home is a fine example of the apartments in Amsterdam that combine pre-war character with modern efficiency.
The neighbourhood Willemsparkbuurt-Noord is a tranquil pocket of Amsterdam with wide, tree-lined streets and grand architecture. One resident describes it as "boring", "Not much to do. Almost no greenery on the street, also gets extremely hot in summer. You never see anyone walking around and rubbish is collected on time. But extremely noisy with construction workers starting at 7 am." The neighbourhood is home to 1,540 people, with a mix of families and singles, and average incomes are high. It's a place where peace and privacy are prized, though the occasional construction noise is a trade-off.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, De Kleine Nicolaas, is a five-minute walk, and secondary schools like Het Amsterdams Lyceum are within a ten-minute stroll. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and culinary riches you'd expect, with a restaurant just a couple of streets away and Vondelpark a short walk.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Broersma Wonen and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels. The asking price reflects the smaller-than-average floor area (111 m² vs. the neighbourhood average of 187 m²), but the energy label A and location make it a compelling option.

About Waldeck Pyrmontlaan 4-1, Amsterdam

Willemsparkbuurt-Noord is a quiet, upscale area with grand pre-war buildings and leafy streets. One resident finds it 'boring' with little street life and summer heat, but appreciates the timely rubbish collection. The area has 1,540 residents, a mix of families and singles, and very high property values. It's not a bustling hub, but that's exactly what many buyers seek.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle. For daily commuting, trams and buses are more convenient, with several stops within a few minutes' walk.
Albert Heijn is just around the corner (254 m), and Jumbo is a couple of streets away (318 m). There's also another Albert Heijn at 410 m and a Dirk at 419 m, so you have plenty of options for daily groceries within a five-minute walk.
Primary school De Kleine Nicolaas is a five-minute walk (475 m), and secondary schools like Montessori Lyceum Oostpoort ISK (486 m) and Het Amsterdams Lyceum (649 m) are within a ten-minute stroll. The area has a good selection of both primary and secondary education.
The home has energy label A, which is very efficient. In the neighbourhood, 33.3% of homes have label A and another 33.3% have label A+, so this apartment is among the best in terms of energy performance. You can expect low heating costs and a comfortable indoor climate.
One resident mentions that construction workers start at 7 am, which can be noisy. However, the street itself is quiet with little traffic. The pre-war construction typically offers good sound insulation, but it's worth visiting at different times to gauge the noise level for yourself.
