Filips van Almondekwartier, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Witte de Withstraat sits in the heart of the Filips van Almondekwartier, a neighbourhood with a real city buzz. At 111 m² it's unusually spacious for the area, and the 1913 building gives it period character. The price of €950,000 is 54% above the neighbourhood average of €617,857, so it's on the high side, but then you're getting a lot more space than the typical 63 m². For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, and this one stands out for its size.
The Filips van Almondekwartier neighbourhood is a compact, densely built area with a very strong urban feel, over 11,000 addresses per km². It's mostly pre-war housing (87.5% built before 1945) and almost entirely apartments. The population skews young, with half of residents between 25 and 45, and many live alone (average household size 1.7). There are no resident reviews available, but the figures paint a picture of a lively, central neighbourhood with a mix of ages.
For daily shopping, the Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and an Aldi is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a short walk, including Islamitische basisschool Al Maes and 10e Montessorischool De Meidoorn. A GP is a five-minute walk away, and the nearest park is about the same distance. The area is well served by restaurants and a library, all within the municipality of Amsterdam.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including PB Makelaars o.z.

About Witte de Withstraat 129-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 54% above the neighbourhood average of €617,857, but the apartment is also 76% larger than the typical 63 m². The average sold price in the area is €783,235, so this home is priced at a premium for its size and location. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space and the central setting.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 14.3% of homes for sale have a label D or lower, while the majority (57.2%) have A or A+. So this home is less efficient than much of the local stock, meaning higher heating costs to expect.
The nearest train station is 3.1 km away. That's about a 35-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
The neighbourhood has a young population, with many singles and couples. Only 105 households have children, and the average household size is 1.7. There are several primary schools within walking distance, but it's not a typical family suburb, it's more of an urban, lively area.
