Jacques Veltmanbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis end-of-terrace house on Marten Corverhof sits in a peaceful part of Amsterdam, with a private garden and a practical layout over three floors. The 64 m² floor area is compact but well used, and the 100 m² plot gives you outdoor space that's rare at this price point. At €545,000, the asking price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €501,000, but the house type and garden justify a premium. For context, end-of-terrace houses in Amsterdam are always in short supply.

About Marten Corverhof 34, Amsterdam
The asking price of €545,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €501,000 and the median of €395,000. However, this is an end-of-terrace house with a garden, which is a rare type in the area. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €6,708, so at €8,516 per m² this house commands a premium for its type and outdoor space.
The energy label is F, which is the second-lowest rating on the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively high heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online and does not specify which aspects of the home cause the low rating.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The Jacques Veltmanbuurt has a mix of households: about 445 households with children and 465 without. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including the Einsteinschool and Daltonschool Louis Bouwmeester. The area is urban and lively, with a park just around the corner.
The floor area is 64 m², but without a room count, the layout is unknown. You would need to check the floor plan or contact the agent for details.
The listing does not specify the size or orientation of the garden, but the plot is larger than the floor area, so outdoor space is present.

How residents experience their district
I think my neighbourhood is so beautiful because it is a place where everything comes together: peace, cosiness, and life. All around me are trees, flowers, and small streets where people greet each other and have time for a chat. I hear birds singing in the morning and children laughing on the square in the afternoon. There is always something to do, but it never feels busy. People look after each other, and that makes it warm and familiar. I love the smell of freshly cut grass in summer and the lights that decorate the streets in winter. My neighbourhood feels like a second family, a place where I feel at home and where I step outside with a smile every day.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt is a safe, pleasant neighbourhood where many families live. It is easily accessible and there is plenty of greenery to be found just as you leave the neighbourhood. However, there is always rubbish lying around on days when it shouldn't be outside.

How residents experience their municipality
IJburg is a new district still under development and it's getting better with all the amenities and a beach nearby. And you're also quickly out of the city and into the greenery.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, peaceful, relaxed, green, social and a nice mix of people
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities that a city has to offer. The neighbourhood is still becoming more beautiful.
