Frequently asked questions
About Baarsjesweg 162-1, Amsterdam
Is €2,500 a fair rent for this apartment?
The asking rent is €2,500 per month for 66 m². The neighbourhood average for rentals is €2,350, but that is based on an average floor area of 47 m². This apartment is 40% larger than that average, so the price per square metre works out lower than the neighbourhood norm. Whether it represents good value depends on how you weigh the extra space against the higher monthly total.
How does the size of this apartment compare to others in the area?
At 66 m², this apartment is 40% larger than the neighbourhood average of 47 m². That is a notable difference in a part of Amsterdam where space is often at a premium. The extra 19 m² could make a real difference to how the home feels day to day, offering more room for living and storage than many nearby rentals.
What is the energy label for this property?
The agent has not published this information, so it is not possible to say how energy-efficient the home is or what heating costs might look like.
How quickly do rental homes in this neighbourhood go?
Rental properties in De Wester Quartier are typically let within about 20 days on average. That suggests a fairly active rental market in the area. With only one rental currently available in the neighbourhood, options are limited, so homes that do come up tend to attract interest quickly.

The one neighbourhood review describes De Wester Quartier as quiet, with many families living there. CBS data backs this up: 28% of households have children, and 14% of residents are under 15. The area is close to water, shops and restaurants, and there are several primary schools within a short walk, which adds to its family-friendly character.
