Buitenveldert-Zuidwest, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on Van der Boechorststraat sits in a leafy corner of Buitenveldert-Zuidwest, where the pace is calm and the Amsterdam Forest is a short stroll away. With 117 m² of living space and a 106 m² plot, it offers room to spread out. The asking price of €975,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but that reflects the scarcity of terraced houses in Amsterdam.

They also note that "hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam."

Schools are close: De Apollo secondary school is on your doorstep, St. Jozefschool primary school is just around the corner, and CSB Amsterdam secondary school is a five-minute walk. The VUmc hospital is very close by, and the Amsterdam Forest is a short walk away for weekend rambles. The municipality of Amsterdam provides all the urban amenities you'd expect, yet here you feel a world away from the city bustle.

About Van der Boechorststraat 84, Amsterdam
The asking price of €975,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €865,600 and well above the median of €669,500. However, this is a terraced house, which is a rare property type in Buitenveldert-Zuidwest, only 23% of homes are single-family. The average price per m² for sold homes in the area is €8,068, and this home works out at about €8,333 per m², so it's on the high side but reflects the scarcity of this type.
The home has energy label D. In the neighbourhood, 29% of homes have a label D or lower, while 32% have label C and 19% have label B. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. It's worth noting that most of the current for-sale stock in the area has a better energy rating.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away. That's about a 30-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
Buitenveldert-Zuidwest is a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood with good schools within walking or cycling distance. One resident says it's "nice to live here with a family and pets" and notes the Amsterdam Forest nearby. The area has a mix of ages, with a significant number of residents over 65 as well as families with children.
The plot size is 106 m², but the listing does not specify whether this includes a garden or how it is laid out. The home is a terraced house, so it likely has a private outdoor space, but the exact details are not provided in the listing.
Aldi is 331 metres away, Jumbo is 435 metres, and Albert Heijn is 834 metres. There's also a SPAR at 962 metres. So daily groceries are within easy walking distance.
With 117 m² of living space over multiple floors, it likely has at least three bedrooms, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
