Kees Broekmanstraat 430
Sportheldenbuurt · 1095 MS Amsterdam
A compact room in Amsterdam's Sportheldenbuurt
This is a 22 m² room in a 2016 building on Kees Broekmanstraat, in the Sportheldenbuurt on Zeeburgereiland. It was social housing, let through Roommatch, and the last known rent of €744 sat well below the neighbourhood average for rentals. That price was about 68% lower than the average of €2,322 in the area, which reflected the room's size and social housing status. For context, rooms in Amsterdam were a specific segment of the market, and this one was priced accordingly. This home has not been online since 9 October 2026.
The Sportheldenbuurt neighbourhood
The Sportheldenbuurt is a young, lively part of Zeeburgereiland, with a strong concentration of people in their late twenties and thirties. Around half of the residents live alone, and the average household is small, so the area has a distinctly urban, independent feel. The neighbourhood has no resident reviews on yet, so the picture here is drawn from CBS figures rather than personal accounts. It is a relatively new residential area, built up over the past decade, and the Sportheldenbuurt neighbourhood reflects that modern, planned character.
Life on the street
Daily life here is straightforward. An Albert Heijn is just around the corner for groceries, and a larger supermarket is a couple of streets away. For school runs, KC De Optimist is a five-minute walk, while Cburg College and ALASCA are both within a couple of hundred metres. The area is part of [the municipality of Amsterdam], which means the usual city services and public transport connections are close at hand. The train station is about 3.7 km away, so most trips into the centre rely on trams or bikes.

How does the size of this room compare with other rentals nearby?
At 22 m², this room is about 70% smaller than the average rental property in the Sportheldenbuurt, which comes in at 73 m². That is expected for a room rather than a self-contained flat. The smaller footprint was reflected in the rent, which was well below the neighbourhood average. For someone looking for a compact, affordable base, the size was a defining feature of this listing.
What kind of neighbourhood is the Sportheldenbuurt?
