Duivendrecht, Ouder-Amstel
NeighbourhoodThis 1926 terraced house on Rijksstraatweg sits in Duivendrecht, a village that feels a world away from Amsterdam yet is just minutes from the city. With 166 m² of living space and an A energy label, it's a rare combination of character and efficiency. The asking price of €979,000 is on the high side compared to other terraced houses in Ouder-Amstel, reflecting its size and location.
Duivendrecht is described by one resident as "a village between cities", a child-friendly place where people know each other and stop for a chat on the village square. "Most children go to one of the two primary schools that Duivendrecht has," they note, adding that playdates are easy to arrange because almost all friends live locally. The neighbourhood has a strong sense of togetherness, though late-night noise isn't appreciated because most residents work or have young children. With 42% owner-occupied homes and a mix of families and singles, it's a settled community.
For daily shopping, the PLUS supermarket is just around the corner, and there's an AH to go a couple of streets away. Two primary schools, A. Bekemaschool and Openbare Basisschool De Grote Beer, are both a five-minute walk, making the school run a breeze. The municipality Ouder-Amstel keeps the village green spaces well-maintained, with a park or garden just a couple of streets away.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Admiraal ERA Makelaardij and also appears on other channels.

Overall a very child-friendly neighbourhood. It is not often appreciated if noise is made late at night because most people have to work and/or have children who need to get up early. Keep that in mind because if you like parties, Duivendrecht might not be your place. It is a village, located between Diemen and Amsterdam Zuidoost, among others. Many people grew up here themselves and know each other. There is a sense of togetherness and often a chat is made with neighbours on the village square. Most children go to one of the two primary schools that Duivendrecht has. That makes it easy and pleasant to arrange playdates because almost all friends live in Duivendrecht. Because the metro stops nearby and a bus runs through the village, Duivendrecht is easily accessible by public transport. At Duivendrecht station you can even take the train. The village has a supermarket, chemist, tobacconist and eateries, among others. For shopping, it is best to go to one of the shopping centres in the surrounding municipalities. You can shop at the Amsterdamse Poort in Zuidoost, Diemen Centrum and Oostpoort in Amsterdam Oost. A nice, quiet village that you have to love.
