The owner-occupied market in Noordoever Sloterplas is relatively modest in size: only 38% of the more than 1,600 homes are owner-occupied, while 62% are rented out. This makes the supply of owner-occupied homes in Noordoever Sloterplas scarce and competition among buyers noticeable. Over the past twelve months, 41 homes changed hands at an average purchase price of €495,793. The range runs from €295,000 to €1,150,000, indicating that both entry-level homes and larger, more expensive properties come onto the market.

Living in Noordoever Sloterplas, Amsterdam
Noordoever Sloterplas is a neighbourhood that does not immediately spring to mind when you think of Amsterdam, but it has a very distinct character. The neighbourhood lies on the north side of the Sloterplas, the large recreational lake in Nieuw-West, and this gives an openness that is rare in the denser parts of the city. Along the shore there are walking and cycling paths, and on summer days the beach at the lake is an extension of the back garden for those who live here.
The buildings largely date from the 1950s and 1960s. In urban planning terms, the neighbourhood is built around a core of terraced houses, surrounded by larger blocks of porch and gallery flats. Resident Joep aptly describes it as a "gated community": a compact cluster of terraced houses with apartments and social housing around them. That mix defines the atmosphere. It is quiet, green and orderly, but the immediate surroundings feel grimmer in places. The resident score of 6.1 out of 10 reflects that honestly.
The highest sub-scores go to Housing (8.0), Community (7.0) and Education (7.0). Residents appreciate the quality of housing and the mutual involvement. The low score for Amenities (4.0) is a serious point of concern. The nearest supermarket requires a long walk, and that is no detail if you rely on it daily. The Osdorpplein shopping centre is within cycling distance and offers a wider range, but for daily groceries on foot the neighbourhood is not ideal. For schools the situation is better: there are primary schools accessible in and around the neighbourhood, and the score for education is accordingly.
In terms of accessibility, the neighbourhood scores a 6.0. Metro line 50 has a stop at Slotermeer and takes you to the centre in about twenty minutes. Several bus lines run through the district towards Lelylaan and Sloterdijk, both with good train connections. By bike, you are quickly on the A10 via the Sloterweg or Osdorpweg. For motorists, the connection to the ring road is relatively smooth. Parking in the neighbourhood itself is not a major problem, although this can vary per street.
Compared to neighbouring communities such as the Dichtersbuurt and the Louis Couperusbuurt, Noordoever Sloterplas has a slightly quieter and greener character due to the proximity of the lake. The Sloterpark neighbourhood borders the park of the same name and has a similar atmosphere.
