Nes aan de Amstel, Amstelveen
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Amsteldijk Zuid 79B sits in the quiet polder landscape of Nes aan de Amstel, a world away from city bustle. With 619 m² of living space and a huge 3,875 m² plot, it offers rare privacy and room to breathe. The rent of €15,000 is well above the neighbourhood average of €6,963, reflecting the exceptional size and quality. For context, detached houses in Amstelveen are scarce at this level.
Nes aan de Amstel is a tiny, tight-knit community of about 1,020 people, mostly older residents and families. One resident describes it as "a quiet, beautiful neighbourhood that is only really accessible by car." They note that amenities are few: "There is one restaurant with unpleasant owners, so it's almost never visited." Public transport is unreliable, with a bus that runs infrequently and can be full. The neighbourhood Nes aan de Amstel is rural and car-dependent, but those who live there appreciate the peace and community.
For daily shopping, you'll drive about a kilometre to the nearest Albert Heijn, Lidl or Jumbo. The closest primary school, de Horizon, is just under a kilometre away, while the secondary school Futuris is about 1.8 km. A restaurant is within walking distance, but the resident's review suggests it's best avoided. The municipality Amstelveen offers more extensive amenities a short drive away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Broersma Wonen and Pararius. The agent has published full details, so the information here is complete.

Nes aan de Amstel is a cosy neighbourhood with some people in it. It's a nice community with mostly elderly people, but most people take you reasonably seriously. The only problem here is that there are very few amenities. There is one restaurant with unpleasant owners, so it's almost never visited. The biggest problem is that it's not accessible. There is public transport, officially once an hour. In practice, it runs once every two hours or once every three hours. Actually, you never know, so the public transport here is very unreliable, the little bus. The public transport also just leaves you behind if the bus, which can hold a maximum of five people, is full. By bike, it's not possible yet from Amsterdam. With a normal bike, you'd be on the road for over an hour, and since it's on the Amstel, the wind is stronger. So accessibility is really only by car.
