Westlandgrachtbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Woestduinstraat is a recent new-build from 2016, which stands out in a neighbourhood where most homes date from before the war. At 68 m² with an A energy label, it is efficient and easy to run. The asking price of €595,000 is exactly in line with the median for the area, so it is priced keenly for what you get. For context, this is one of 25 apartments currently for sale in the neighbourhood, and the average price per m² here is €10,223. If you are looking at apartments in Amsterdam, this one offers a rare combination of modern build and a quiet street.
The Westlandgrachtbuurt feels like a village within the city. One resident describes it as 'cosy, quiet & familiar', noting that many elderly people, families and starters live here, which creates a nice bustle on the street. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with a large group of 25-45 year olds, and most households are single-person. It is a very urban area (address density 7,224 per km²), yet you are just a couple of streets away from two large parks: the Vondelpark and the Rembrandtpark. The resident also appreciates that they have never felt unsafe. For more on the area, see the Westlandgrachtbuurt neighbourhood.
For your morning bread, Dirk is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. There are several primary schools within walking distance: Oecumenische basisschool Nautilus and Cultuurprofielschool De Notenkraker are both on your doorstep. For secondary education, the Tobiasschool VMBO is a ten-minute walk away. A restaurant is just around the corner, and a GP is a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood also has sports facilities nearby, as the resident mentions. All this makes it easy to stay in your own neighbourhood for daily errands. For more on the wider area, see the municipality of Amsterdam.

Very good · 1 resident
I've been living in this neighbourhood for almost a year now. I find it very pleasant, quiet & familiar. Many elderly people, families with kids, and starters live here, which makes you feel at home right away and there's some nice bustle on the street. Accessibility is fine; bus/tram station within walking distance & there's a metro station nearby. You're close to two parks: Vondelpark & Rembrandtpark, which is nice for the green surroundings. There are plenty of schools in the area for kids. Supermarkets, shops, restaurants within walking distance. It would be nice if some bakeries or more shops came to the neighbourhood, so it becomes even cosier and easier to stay in your own neighbourhood. Sports facilities are also nearby, which is very pleasant; I make good use of them. I have never felt unsafe for a moment; I feel that there are no people wandering around the neighbourhood who have no business being here.
