Van der Helstpleinbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Van Ostadestraat sits in one of Amsterdam's liveliest neighbourhoods. At 44 m² it's compact but efficient, with an energy label C, reasonable for a 1889 building. The asking price of €425,000 is 27% below the neighbourhood average of €585,179, which makes it a keen entry into the Amsterdam market. For context, studios in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one is priced to move.
One resident sums it up: "It's really a good neighbourhood. It's easily accessible by metro and tram, except at night. There's only 1 bus in the area and that one at 5 in the morning (to Schiphol) is super annoying. Furthermore, it's nicely green with parks and trees in the neighbourhood. There are also many amenities; shops, bakeries, butchers, eateries, really everything. Also, it's very safe, there are occasional burglaries but they are minor and only target shops. Furthermore, no one has been murdered or large drug labs found in years. Just lock your bike properly. The houses are nice and good, but WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!" The neighbourhood Van der Helstpleinbuurt is densely urban with mostly young adults and singles, over half the population is between 25 and 45.
For daily groceries, Albert Heijn is on your doorstep, and Lidl is just around the corner. There are also several other supermarkets within a ten-minute walk. For schools, the 3e Daltonschool Alberdingk Thijm is a couple of streets away, and the Berlage Lyceum is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational options you'd expect from the capital.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Smit & Heinen Makelaars en Taxateurs o/z and Smit & Heinen Makelaars Haarlem, so it's available through several channels.
