Lovely living in Bolestein! Unfortunately my former home is empty... We're going into the seventh year... Such a shame, there's so much potential in this house!

Nice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
