About the location and the neighbourhood:
The house is situated on a prime location in Amstelveen: on a quiet road in the popular district of Westwijk.

The house is also just a few minutes' walk away from an extensive shopping centre, where you can go for all your daily groceries. The large, covered “Stadshart” shopping centre of Amstelveen is fifteen minutes away by bike. You can get a breath of fresh air in the Amsterdamse Bos forest and De Poel, which are just a short cycling distance away. The accessibility of the house is excellent, both by public transport and by car: the A9 towards Amsterdam, Schiphol and Utrecht can be reached within a few minutes and from the nearest tram stop, tram 25 will take you to Amsterdam Zuid station without having to change trams.
