Ruys de Beerenbrouckbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis corner house on Pieter van der Werfstraat sits in the Ruys de Beerenbrouckbuurt, a green pocket of Amsterdam's Geuzenveld district. With 138 m² of living space, it's noticeably roomier than the neighbourhood average, 29% bigger, in fact. The asking price of €595,000 is in line with what other homes here go for, and end-of-terrace houses in Amsterdam like this one don't come up often.
The neighbourhood has a calm, leafy feel, with a park just a couple of streets away. One resident describes it as having "Little interaction" with neighbours and adds they "don't like walking on the street in the evening. But plenty of shops and greenery." That sums up the trade-off: a peaceful setting with good amenities, but the streets can feel quiet after dark. Most homes here were built between 1990 and 2010, and the area is home to many families, over a thousand households have children. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Ruys de Beerenbrouckbuurt.
For your morning bread run, Vomar is just around the corner, and Lidl and Albert Heijn are a five-minute walk away. Two primary schools are within a few minutes' stroll: Basisschool 't Koggeschip is practically on your doorstep, and Oecumenische basisschool Timotheusschool is a couple of streets away. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's cultural and transport links, though the nearest train station is a ten-minute drive.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Urban Makelaars - Thuis in Groot Amsterdam.
