Populierenbuurt, Amstelveen
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Keizer Karelweg sits in a quiet part of Amstelveen, with a large 258 m² plot and 177 m² of living space. The 1957 build has been brought up to an A energy label, so running costs should be pleasantly low. With a price of €1,499,000, it is well above the neighbourhood average of €484,000, but then you are getting a home that is nearly twice the size of the typical Populierenbuurt property. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Amstelveen tend to command a premium.
The neighbourhood Populierenbuurt has around 3,600 residents, with a mix of ages and a high proportion of single-person households. It is densely built and very urban (over 2,500 addresses per km²). Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident says: "Every day people are threatened with nasty things but otherwise, good shops etc. The safety is fine but as soon as you enter Middenhoven you have to watch out for people." Another calls it "Boring" and notes "Many children causing trouble. It's sometimes fun but they often threaten you, etc." A third finds it "Sometimes everything is a bit far but the most important shops are nearby." So the area has its ups and downs, but daily essentials are close at hand.
For groceries, you have a Coop just around the corner and an Ekoplaza a couple of streets away, with a PLUS a five-minute walk. There are several schools nearby: primary school Het Palet is a couple of streets away, and secondary school Keizer Karel College is also within a five-minute walk. The municipality Amstelveen offers plenty of amenities, including a restaurant just around the corner and a park or garden a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Admiraal ERA Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so it is available through several channels.
