Populierenbuurt, Amstelveen
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Populierenlaan is a compact home in a lively part of Amstelveen. At 40 m² it's small but efficient, and with a price of €285,000 it sits well below the neighbourhood average, partly because of its size. For context, studios in Amstelveen vary widely, so this one is keenly priced for what it is.
The Populierenbuurt is a densely built area with a mix of ages and households.

A third notes "Sometimes everything is a bit far but the most important shops are nearby." The neighbourhood has a high density of addresses (2,575 per km²) and a strong urban feel.

Every day people are threatened with nasty things but otherwise, good shops etc. The safety is fine but as soon as you enter Middenhoven you have to watch out for people.

About Populierenlaan 117, Amstelveen
The asking price of €285,000 is 41% below the average asking price in the Populierenbuurt (€484,000), but the studio is also much smaller than the neighbourhood average of 93 m². Given its size and energy label G, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact studio in this area.
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This means the home has poor insulation and high heating costs are to be expected. In the neighbourhood, 42.9% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a building from 1960.
The nearest train station is 6.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You would need a bus, bike or car to reach it.
Residents describe the neighbourhood as mixed. One says "Every day people are threatened with nasty things but otherwise, good shops etc." Another finds it "Boring" with children causing trouble, while a third appreciates that "the most important shops are nearby." The area has many one-person households and a fair number of families.
The listing does not mention a garden or any outdoor space. The plot size is not stated, so it's best to assume there is no private garden.
The property is listed as a studio, which typically means one open-plan living/sleeping area plus a separate kitchen and bathroom. The exact layout is not described in the listing.
