Timorpleinbuurt-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Javastraat in Amsterdam's Indische Buurt is a cosy, no-fuss home for one. At 31 m² it's compact, but the high ceilings and classic 1903 proportions give it character. The asking price of €325,000 is 40% below the neighbourhood average of €545,254, which makes it a keen entry into the Amsterdam market, especially given that most studios in the municipality sell for more. For context, studios in Amsterdam tend to be pricier per square metre.
Timorpleinbuurt-Noord is a lively, urban pocket of the Indische Buurt. With an address density of 8,460 per km², it's very densely built up. The population is young, nearly half are between 25 and 45, and most households are single people. One resident says: "I don't think the neighbourhood is extremely special, but I do like the atmosphere and there are nice people living here. I would like to see a bit more greenery, like more flowers and plants. That would make the neighbourhood a bit cosier. Also, there is often litter on the streets, which doesn't look nice and especially not cosy. Other than that, I'm happy with my neighbourhood!" That's the only review, so it's a single voice, but it captures the mix of appreciation and desire for more green. For more on the area, see the Timorpleinbuurt-Noord neighbourhood.
Your daily routine here is wonderfully walkable. For groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a Lidl is a five-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within a couple of streets: De Indische Buurt School and Bataviaschool are both on your doorstep. For secondary education, Havo De Hof is a ten-minute walk. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, which means all the city's cultural and transport links are easily accessible.
At present, the home is listed through several channels, including hausing. The agent has published full details, so what you see here is what's known.

About Javastraat 91-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €325,000 is 40% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€545,254). However, this studio is also 50% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 62 m². Per square metre, the price is in line with the local market. Given the compact size and energy label D, it's a realistic price for a starter home in Amsterdam.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 29% of homes have a label D or lower, while 71% score better (A to C). Label D means the home is moderately efficient; heating costs will be higher than in a well-insulated home, but it's not the worst. The building dates from 1903, so solid walls and single glazing are likely.
The nearest train station is 1 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach other parts of Amsterdam or further afield.
