A brand-new studio on Oostenburg
This studio on Willem Parelstraat 214 sits in Oostenburg, a former shipyard island that has been transformed into a modern residential area. The building dates from 2025, so everything is fresh and unused. At €2,250 per month, the rent sat about 15% below the neighbourhood average of €2,661, which made it a keen price for a new-build studio. For context, studios in Amsterdam typically command a premium, so this one stands out. This home has not been online since 1 October 2026.
The Oostenburg neighbourhood
The Oostenburg neighbourhood is one of Amsterdam's newest quarters, built on the site of the former Oostelijke Eilanden. The population skews young, with 61% of residents aged between 25 and 45, and most households are single people. It is a quiet, car-free area with wide streets and water on three sides. The mix of new architecture and industrial heritage gives it a distinctive character. There are no resident reviews available yet, so the picture here is based on the neighbourhood data alone.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy from here. The Vomar supermarket is just around the corner, with a SPAR express a couple of streets away and an Albert Heijn within a five-minute walk. For school runs, Basisschool Oostelijke Eilanden is on your doorstep, and the Alan Turingschool is a short stroll. The area falls under the municipality of Amsterdam, which means all the city's amenities are within reach.
