We know the Kinkerstraat, the Ten Katemarkt and the market. Selling, buying or renting out, with the same fixed team.","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","wijk_plaatsnaam":"","wijk_hero_afbeelding_id":"36362","wijk_hero_tagline":"We know these streets.","wijk_h2_tagline":"Nineteenth-century, bustling, and never quiet.","wijk_intro_tekst":"Nowhere in Amsterdam do you hear so many languages mixed together as on the Kinkerstraat. At the end of the nineteenth century, Oud-West grew into a true working-class neighbourhood along the Overtoom and the Kinkerstraat, with the Kinkerbuurt in the north and the Overtoombuurt in the south. After years of urban renewal, it is now one of the best-loved areas of the city: densely populated, mixed and always on the move.","wijk_buurten":"","wijk_sectie_1_titel":"The character of Oud-West","wijk_sectie_1_tekst":"The area owes its name to the nineteenth-century extension just outside the old city boundary, with the Kinkerstraat as its main artery, named after the Amsterdam poet and lawyer Johannes Kinker. In the 1980s the area was thoroughly renovated, after which the working-class neighbourhood gradually changed into the mixed, colourful area it is today, with more than 170 nationalities side by side.\n\nThe clearest proof of that change is De Hallen: a former tram depot from the beginning of the twentieth century, built in the Amsterdam School style. After the GVB left in 1996, the building stood empty for years, until it reopened in 2014 as a cultural centre with a cinema, a hotel and the Foodhallen.","wijk_sectie_1_afbeelding_id":"36363","wijk_sectie_2_titel":"Living in Oud-West: homes and price level","wijk_sectie_2_tekst":"The housing consists largely of narrow buildings from around 1900, once built for working-class families and later divided into smaller flats. Expect compact apartments, often an upper-floor home with a balcony or roof terrace, rather than spacious single-family homes.\n\nBecause of its popularity and its location close to the Vondelpark and the centre, Oud-West is one of the more expensive areas of Amsterdam. Homes that come onto the market at the right price are often sold again quickly.","wijk_sectie_2_afbeelding_id":"36364","wijk_sectie_3_titel":"Shopping, eating and relaxing","wijk_sectie_3_tekst":"The Kinkerstraat is the area's shopping street, with a wide mix of businesses that reflects the diversity of the neighbourhood. At the Ten Katemarkt you buy fresh vegetables, fish and fabrics, while De Hallen brings together the Foodhallen, a cinema and several terraces.\n\nThe Jan Pieter Heijestraat and the Bilderdijkstraat also have their own mix of caf\u00e9s, specialist shops and local stores. For a quiet walk or a drink on a sunny terrace, you never have to go far in Oud-West.","wijk_sectie_3_afbeelding_id":"36365","wijk_sectie_4_titel":"Getting around from Oud-West","wijk_sectie_4_tekst":"Trams 7 and 17 run right along the Kinkerstraat and take you to Centraal Station or the Leidseplein in a few minutes. Along the Overtoom, the area's other main artery, tram 1 runs towards the centre and Amsterdam Zuid.\n\nThe area is compact and great for cycling, and by car you are on the A10 ring road in no time. If you prefer public transport, you never have to walk far to a stop.","wijk_sectie_4_afbeelding_id":"36366","wijk_sectie_5_titel":"Who is Oud-West right for","wijk_sectie_5_tekst":"Oud-West mainly attracts first-time buyers, young professionals, students and internationals who love a lively, mixed neighbourhood. More and more young families are also deliberately choosing the area, thanks to the friendly atmosphere and the short distance to the Vondelpark.\n\nLooking for a spacious single-family home with a garden? Then look a little further, towards De Baarsjes or Nieuw-West. But if you want to live compactly and in the middle of city life, Oud-West is just right.","wijk_sectie_5_afbeelding_id":"36367","wijk_faq_1_vraag":"Is Oud-West an expensive area to buy in?","wijk_faq_1_antwoord":"Oud-West is one of the more expensive areas of Amsterdam; its popularity and its location close to the Vondelpark and the centre mean a higher price per square metre. Homes at the right price often sell quickly, so if you want to buy here, you need to be quick.","wijk_faq_2_vraag":"Is Oud-West suitable for families?","wijk_faq_2_antwoord":"Oud-West has traditionally been especially popular with first-time buyers, students and young professionals, but more and more young families are deliberately choosing the area for its atmosphere and the proximity of the Vondelpark. For a spacious single-family home with a garden, De Baarsjes or Nieuw-West is a better place to look.","wijk_faq_3_vraag":"How do I get to Oud-West by public transport?","wijk_faq_3_antwoord":"Trams 7 and 17 run right along the Kinkerstraat, and tram 1 runs along the Overtoom. Within a few minutes you are at the Leidseplein or Centraal Station.","wijk_tips_titel":"Tips from Micha","wijk_tips_tekst":"I lived in Oud-West for a long time, and I still love coming here. For brunch, head to Kazik on Bilderdijkstraat. At Rue d'Alger on Eerste Constantijn Huygensstraat you eat Algerian food with no set menu: the dishes change every day. Caf\u00e9 de Toog on Nicolaas Beetsstraat is a neighbourhood caf\u00e9 with a sunny terrace, where Herman Brood once painted his regulars' table. And the Bilderdijkpark on the Bilderdijkgracht, a small park on a former cemetery, has a play tunnel designed by Aldo van Eyck.","wijk_tips_afbeelding_id":"36929","wijk_faq_werken":"Yes, a lot. We have sold homes here on streets including Jacob van Lennepstraat, Da Costastraat and Jan Pieter Heijestraat.","wijk_archief_verkopen":""},"class_list":["post-36431","wijk","type-wijk","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.6 (Yoast SEO v28.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Estate agent in Oud-West | We know these streets<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Estate agent in Amsterdam Oud-West.
