Schellingwoude-Oost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a rare find: a detached house from 1925 with 283 m² of living space and a huge plot of 5,189 m². It sits in Schellingwoude-Oost, a village-like pocket within Amsterdam.

Schellingwoude-Oost is a small, leafy neighbourhood with just 625 residents.

The area is moderately urban, with 1,117 addresses per km². There are no resident reviews available, but the low crime rate (34 incidents) and proximity to the IJsselmeer suggest a peaceful setting. The neighbourhood Schellingwoude-Oost is a world away from the city centre.
For daily errands, Albert Heijn is just around the corner and Aldi is a couple of streets away. Two primary schools are within walking distance: Kindcentrum Bekkers and Oecumenische basisschool De Vijf Sterren. A restaurant and a park are both a five-minute walk away. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, but here you have space and quiet.
