Bethaniëndwarsstraat 8H
Burgwallen-Oost, Amsterdam
AreaIn the heart of Amsterdam
This 18th-century apartment on Bethaniëndwarsstraat sits in the oldest part of the city, where every street tells a story. With 58 m² of living space, it's compact but full of character, a typical Amsterdam pied-à-terre. The price of €800,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood median of €737,500, partly because the home is 34% smaller than the average 88 m² in the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size.

Frequently asked questions
About Bethaniëndwarsstraat 8H, Amsterdam
Is €800,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €800,000 is above the neighbourhood median of €737,500, but below the average of €917,455. The home is 58 m², which is 34% smaller than the average 88 m² in Burgwallen-Oost. Per square metre, the price works out to about €13,793, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €11,168 per m². So it's priced at a premium for its size.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. In Burgwallen-Oost, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for an 18th-century building. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a modern home. The listing does not mention any recent insulation or double glazing.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 1.0 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That's convenient for getting to other parts of the city or further afield.
What is the neighbourhood like for daily life?
Burgwallen-Oost is very urban and lively, with a high density of addresses. It's a neighbourhood of mostly singles and few children. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, the nearest restaurant is just 0.1 km away. The area has a high crime rate (751 total offences), which is typical for a city centre.
How many rooms does this apartment have?
The floor area is 58 m², which typically accommodates one or two bedrooms, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
Is there a garden or outdoor space?
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given the central location and the age of the building, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space, but this is not confirmed in the data.
