Nintemanterrein, Amsterdam

Living in Nintemanterrein

Nintemanterrein is densely built and genuinely urban, and the housing is dominated by single-family houses (100%), which is what draws settlers rather than passers-through.

With just 3,243 residents per km², this is space by Dutch standards.

Amsterdam is the tightest housing market in the Netherlands: international workers, students and families chase the same limited stock, overbidding is routine in popular price bands, and a large social-housing sector keeps much of the city permanently off the open market. Where a buurt sits relative to the ring road (A10) and a metro or tram line explains a surprising share of its price.

The housing market in Nintemanterrein

At €888,000 average WOZ value, Nintemanterrein ranks 38 out of 426 Amsterdam neighborhoods on price — 76% pricier than most of the city. That premium is the location speaking. For scale: Amsterdam's cheapest buurt averages €42,000 and its priciest €2,286,000, so Nintemanterrein sits among the city's pricier neighbourhoods.

The direction of the market: between 2023 and 2025 the average WOZ value here rose from €858,000 to €888,000, up 3% — roughly in step with the rest of the city. WOZ values lag the market by about a year, but the trend itself is reliable.

With 100% of homes owner-occupied, this is a settled buyers' neighborhood — homes change hands regularly, and you can usually find recent comparable sales on the same street to anchor your bid. Settled also means slower: owners here tend to stay, so the best houses may only list once a decade.

Who lives here

Demographically, Nintemanterrein is notably child-rich for a city neighborhood (27% of its 125 residents), followed by over-65s at 23%. 61% of households have children at home, so expect school runs, playgrounds in use, and neighbors who stay put. The average household counts 3.3 people.

Daily errands, coffee and dinner

Day to day: plan your groceries: the nearest large supermarket is 0.9 km away; dining out means a short trip: only 1 café or restaurant sit within a kilometer.

The practical checklist most buyers forget to make: pharmacy 14 min walk · GP 10 min · hospital 1.9 km · library 1.9 km · 4 cinemas within 5 km. None of these will decide a purchase on their own, but a GP taking new patients nearby is the kind of thing you only miss after moving.

Families and schools

For families: 4 primary schools within a kilometer means real choice — and short bike rides; daycare is well covered (4 locations nearby) — though Dutch waiting lists mean you register the week you know you're expecting, not the week you need it; secondary school is a 3-minute bike ride, which Dutch teenagers do in all weather.

Getting around

Getting around: the nearest train station is 4.6 km out, so day-to-day life here leans on the car or bus; the nearest highway on-ramp is 2.3 km away.

Energy and running costs

100% of homes were built before 2000. Two identical-looking houses on the same street can differ by hundreds of euros a month once heating is counted — the energy label tells you which one you're looking at, and lenders increasingly price it into your mortgage too.

Before you bid in Nintemanterrein

Before you bid in Nintemanterrein: in a premium buurt the risk isn't buying a bad home, it's overpaying for a good one — anchor your bid on recent sales of comparable homes, not on the asking price. Also, family neighborhoods like this one turn over slowly; when a good house appears it often goes to the first serious, well-prepared bidder.

None of these averages can tell you whether the specific house you found is fairly priced — that depends on its size, energy label, state of maintenance and the recent sales around it. That is exactly what a free HomeReview report checks, in about 10 seconds, for any Dutch address.
