The Robert Scottbuurt-Oost neighbourhood

It is a busy, central part of Amsterdam where life happens close by.
Life on the street
For daily shopping, a Dirk supermarket is just around the corner, with an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away. Primary schools are close too, with Rosa Boekdrukker and Tijl Uilenspiegelschool both within a short walk. A park or green space is on your doorstep, and a GP practice is just around the corner. The nearest train station is 2.8 km away. The municipality of Amsterdam covers a wide area, but this street sits in a lively, well-served part of it.
