Vogelbuurt-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis terraced house on the Vijfde Vogelstraat sits in a neighbourhood where neighbours still know each other by name. With 43 m² of living space and an energy label F, it is a compact home that needs some modernisation. The real surprise is the enormous plot of 1733 m², a rare find in Amsterdam. Priced at €375,000, it is well below the neighbourhood average of €425,000, making it a keen entry point into the market for terraced houses in Amsterdam.
One resident describes it as a "cosy spot where everyone knows each other" and says: "Nice neighbourhood where everyone knows each other and has a strong bond with each other, which is why every year we celebrate a party to which everyone from the neighbourhood is invited. It's very pleasant living here." The neighbourhood Vogelbuurt-Noord is densely urban with over 2700 addresses per km², yet it feels like a village within the city. Most homes were built before 1945, and the area has a mix of families and singles.
For your morning bread, SPAR express is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a five-minute walk away. Schools are close by: Metropolis Lyceum is a couple of streets away, and Vox College is within a five-minute walk. The park or garden is on your doorstep, perfect for a quick breather. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the city's amenities, though the train station is a ten-minute drive.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including HR Home Amsterdam. The agent has not published full specs beyond the street and price.
