Living in Van Tuyllbuurt, Amsterdam

Van Tuyllbuurt is located in the southwest of Amsterdam, nestled between the Olympic Stadium and the Marathonbuurt. It is a neighbourhood with a distinct 1930s character: wide streets, brick blocks with ornate details, and an urban layout that is still clearly legible. The neighbourhood is not as well-known as the Jordaan or the Canal Belt, but that is precisely what appeals to many residents. It is quieter than the city centre, yet you are right in the middle of the city.

Those who live here have the Olympic Stadium and the Borchlandterrein within walking distance, and Amstelpark is easily reached by bike. Marathonweg and Van Tuyllkade give the neighbourhood a certain allure, with trees along the roadway and plenty of street space. Daily shopping can be done on Marathonweg or at the supermarkets on the edge of the neighbourhood, and for a wider range of shops, Gelderlandplein is a short bike ride away. Children attend primary schools in the immediate vicinity, including schools in the adjacent Marathonbuurt.

Accessibility is one of the strongest points. Tram lines 1 and 17 run through the neighbourhood and take you to Leidseplein or the city centre in about twenty minutes. Amsterdam Zuid station is about ten minutes away by bike, from where you can catch the Intercity or the North-South line directly. By car, you can quickly reach the A10 ring road via Amstelveenseweg. Parking is reasonably manageable in the evenings, although it is busier during the day than you might wish.

Residents rate the neighbourhood remarkably highly. On the neighbourhood main page of Van Tuyllbuurt, the neighbourhood scores a 10.0 based on submitted resident experiences, with maximum scores for safety, accessibility, green spaces and community. One resident writes: "Van Tuyllbuurt combines the best of both worlds: you live quietly yet right in the middle of Amsterdam, with everything within reach." This is of course based on a limited number of reviews, so take it as a signal, not as statistical evidence.

Compared to neighbouring areas such as Marathonbuurt-West or the Bertelmanpleinbuurt, Van Tuyllbuurt has slightly more cachet due to its location and housing quality, which is also reflected in the prices. The IJsbaanpad and surroundings offer a similar green character but with a somewhat different type of housing. For a broader comparison within the district, a good overview can be found on the page of the Stadionbuurt.

Who is a home in Van Tuyllbuurt interesting for?

Van Tuyllbuurt mainly attracts young dual-income couples and small families who want to live in the city without the hustle and bustle of the centre. The dominant age group is 25 to 45 years old, the average income is €56,300, and 66% of residents are highly educated. First-time buyers with a limited budget find it difficult: the entry price is around €425,000 and overbidding is more the rule than the exception in this segment. Those moving up the property ladder who have already built up equity are better positioned. For those who want to remain flexible or wait out the market, it is also worth looking at rental properties in Van Tuyllbuurt, where supply is larger.
