Fannius Scholtenbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Van Beuningenstraat brings you right into the heart of the lively Staatsliedenbuurt, with its 1906 architecture and a real city feel. At 37 m² it's a compact home, but the price of €375,000 is 28% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €521,087, which makes it a keen entry point into Amsterdam's owner-occupied market. For context, the average price per m² in the area is €10,109, so this studio is priced in line with that. If you're looking for a foothold in the city, this is a realistic option.

About Van Beuningenstraat 154-1, Amsterdam
The asking price of €375,000 is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €521,087, but the studio is also smaller than average (37 m² vs 54 m²). The price per m² works out to about €10,135, which is in line with the neighbourhood average of €10,109. So the price is competitive for the size, but you're paying a fair rate for the location and the compact footprint.
Energy label D is the middle of the scale, it's not the most efficient, but not the worst either. In the neighbourhood, most for-sale homes have better labels (about 86% are C or above), so this one is slightly below average. You can expect moderate energy costs, but the label doesn't tell you exactly what needs improvement, it's an official registration.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, so that's a bit of a walk or a short cycle. Tram and bus stops are within walking distance, though one resident notes that tram line 3 was cancelled, which has reduced options. The neighbourhood is very central, so many destinations are reachable on foot or by bike.
The Fannius Scholtenbuurt is a diverse, old working-class area with a mix of social housing and owner-occupied apartments. Residents appreciate the beautiful 1910s buildings, the proximity to Westerpark, and the social cohesion. It's a quiet street but close to the centre. Some mention that the range of shops is limited, but there are supermarkets nearby.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that it's a studio in a 1906 building, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space, but you're a five-minute walk from Westerpark, which offers plenty of green space.
The property is listed as a studio, which typically means one open-plan living/sleeping area plus a separate kitchen and bathroom.
The listing does not state the service charge or VvE contribution.
How residents experience their neighbourhood
Honestly crazy! I live in the centre of little Jordan and it's really not a dream! The people outside are different than the dictionary! And the problem like all the time the 'borders'! Actually. If I want to report everything to the police I call them every day! But I have 'neighbours' with walls like head, they are really magical! All the time they are the people people! All the time willed war you want meet than you! They can try to make the food then call 112 because the other but they live in richland over the phone make noise in the nearby apartment! They are really satisfied with their integration! The one full of experience and we are the brave! Boring and all the time want pampering and dangerous for society! But yes Garden of Eden! Luckily it's forbidden now on us!
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood has a very diverse group of residents. Here, people with bought apartments live among those who often rent apartments through urgency and the social housing association. Westerpark around the corner, beautiful nature. Accessibility by public transport has worsened since the cancellation of tram line 3. I also find the range of shops very poor.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet neighbourhood with beautiful Amsterdam buildings from around 1910. Location is great, close to the centre but also near the lovely Westerpark. Social cohesion is also present here, older residents through social housing mixed with new residents with high incomes and owner-occupied homes. People are friendly and involved. I enjoy living here.
Auto-translated to English by AIWith a few small adjustments, we can make Staatsliedenbuurt shine again!!
Auto-translated to English by AII've only lived here for a few months and I love my apartment in a building from 1905. I have friendly neighbours with whom I share the stairwell and front door. Unfortunately, my bikes are not safe at night and they are stolen on a regular basis. Because Westerpark is exploited for a polluting commercial festival or event almost every weekend, there is not enough nature in my living environment. Furthermore, as far as I'm concerned, there could be more and different shops and such on Van Hallstraat or the beginning of Haarlemmerweg.

How residents experience their municipality
IJburg is a new district still under development and it's getting better with all the amenities and a beach nearby. And you're also quickly out of the city and into the greenery.
Auto-translated to English by AIQuiet, peaceful, relaxed, green, social and a nice mix of people
Auto-translated to English by AII lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Auto-translated to English by AINice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.
Auto-translated to English by AIAt the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!
Auto-translated to English by AIBecause we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities that a city has to offer. The neighbourhood is still becoming more beautiful.
