Pleasant, beautiful neighbourhood with lots to see and do. Cultural visits to the many museums and parks, with plenty of cosiness from shops, cafés and restaurants. It is a lively neighbourhood, but you can also find enough peace and quiet if you need it. Public transport is available everywhere, so you can easily travel to another neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIEveryone is very much to themselves, little contact with neighbours. I don't mind that much myself. Lots of supermarkets, shops and cafés. Very accessible by public transport, which I use very often.

About Tweede Helmersstraat 44-4, Amsterdam
At €265,000, this studio is the cheapest home currently for sale in Helmersbuurt-Oost. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is over €1 million, but that includes much larger properties. Given the compact 21 m² floor area and energy label G, the price is in line with what you would expect for a small, older studio in a prime Amsterdam location.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect relatively high heating and electricity costs compared to a modern home. The neighbourhood has a mix of labels, but most homes for sale here have better ratings. It is worth considering the long-term costs and potential for improvements.
Helmersbuurt-Oost is very lively with many shops, cafés and restaurants. Residents appreciate the convenience: supermarkets like Lidl, Jumbo and Albert Heijn are within a few minutes' walk. Public transport is excellent, with trams and buses nearby. The Vondelpark is just around the corner for green space. It is a bustling area, but quieter spots can be found.
Public transport is very accessible. The nearest tram stop is a short walk away, and several bus lines serve the area. The closest train station is 3.2 km away, so for national rail connections you would need a tram or bike to reach Amsterdam Zuid or Centraal. Within the city, trams and buses make it easy to get around.
At 21 m², this studio is 76% smaller than the average home for sale in Helmersbuurt-Oost, which is 87 m². Studios in Amsterdam are often compact, but this is on the smaller side. It is best suited for a single person or as a pied-à-terre.
Yes, several schools are within walking distance. For primary education, OBS Leonardo da Vinci is about 400 m away, and the Cornelis Vrijschool is around 550 m. Secondary schools include Huygens College (240 m) and Barlaeus Gymnasium (650 m). The area is well-served for education.
