Scheldebuurt-Midden, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Rooseveltlaan sits in the heart of Amsterdam's Scheldebuurt-Midden, a quiet residential pocket just south of the city centre. At 44 m² it's compact but efficient, with a B energy label keeping running costs manageable. The asking price of €425,000 is keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €794,259, partly because studios are smaller and more affordable than the typical home here. For context, studios in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one is priced to move.
Scheldebuurt-Midden is a pre-war neighbourhood with a village feel, despite being in a very strongly urban area (over 8,600 addresses per km²). Most homes are apartments, and the streets are lined with plane trees. It's popular with young professionals and families alike, the average household size is 1.8, and a quarter of households have children. There are no resident reviews available for this street, but the area is known for its quiet, safe atmosphere and easy access to parks and the Amstel river.
Your daily routine here is a pleasure. For bread and milk, the Coop is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. The nearest primary school, 15e montessorischool van Maas en Waal, is on your doorstep, and there are several others within a five-minute walk. For secondary education, Mediacollege Amsterdam is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam keeps the streets clean and the parks well-maintained.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Ramon Mossel Makelaardij and also appears on Funda, so you have two channels to follow up.

About Rooseveltlaan 114E, Amsterdam
Yes, it's priced keenly. The average asking price in Scheldebuurt-Midden is €794,259, but that includes much larger homes. At 44 m², this studio is 48% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 85 m², so the price per m² is actually in line with the market. Given the B energy label and good location, it represents good value.
Scheldebuurt-Midden is a quiet, leafy residential area with mostly pre-war apartments. It's very urban (over 8,600 addresses per km²) but feels calm thanks to the tree-lined streets. The population is a mix of young singles and families, with an average household size of 1.8. Crime is moderate, 171 incidents recorded, but the area is generally considered safe.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk. That gives you direct connections to Amsterdam Centraal and Schiphol. Trams and buses are also nearby, making the rest of the city easily accessible.
For daily groceries, Coop is 273 m away and Albert Heijn is 337 m. There are several primary schools within a 5-minute walk, including 15e montessorischool van Maas en Waal (138 m) and Daltonbasisschool De Rivieren (340 m). Secondary school Mediacollege Amsterdam is 417 m away.
The energy label is B, which is good for a 1930s building. It means the home is reasonably efficient, so you won't face excessively high energy bills. Most homes in the neighbourhood have labels C or lower, so this is above average.
At 44 m², it's a compact studio, so it's best suited for a single person or a couple who don't mind a small space. The layout is open-plan, typical of a studio, so there's no separate bedroom. It's ideal for someone who wants a foothold in Amsterdam without the cost of a larger apartment.
