Driehoekbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment sits on one of the city's most picturesque canals, with a lively yet refined atmosphere. At 67 m² it's a compact but well-proportioned home, built in 1927 and carrying a solid energy label B. The asking price of €880,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but that reflects the prime canal location. For context, apartments in Amsterdam sell for a wide range, and this one is clearly positioned at the upper end.
The Driehoekbuurt is the heart of the Jordaan, with a dense urban feel, over 10,000 addresses per km². It's a neighbourhood of singles and couples: the average household size is just 1.4, and nearly half of all homes are one-person households. The streets are lively, with a mix of young professionals and older residents. There are no resident reviews available for this area, but the figures speak for themselves: a very central, walkable district where most homes were built before 1945. This is the Driehoekbuurt neighbourhood in a nutshell.
Your daily routine here is wonderfully compact. For bread and groceries, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. There's also an Ekoplaza for organic bits. For school runs, Vinse School (secondary) is a five-minute walk, and de Burght primary school is about a ten-minute walk away. The area is packed with restaurants, the nearest is on your doorstep, and a park is a ten-minute stroll. Everything you need is within easy walking distance, which is typical for the municipality of Amsterdam.
At the time of writing the home is listed through several channels, including Broersma Wonen and Broersma Wonen.

About Brouwersgracht 127H, Amsterdam
The asking price of €880,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €833,897 and well above the median of €595,000. However, the average price per m² in the Driehoekbuurt is €11,210, and this apartment works out at about €13,134 per m². That premium reflects the canal location and the fact that it's a well-maintained pre-war apartment with a good energy label. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the specific location.
The energy label is B, which is good for a 1927 building. It means the home is reasonably efficient, with decent insulation and heating. You won't face the high energy costs associated with older, uninsulated homes, but it's not as efficient as a modern A++++ property. In the neighbourhood, about 36% of homes have label A, and 21% have label B, so this one is in the better half.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. That's a reasonable distance for a central Amsterdam location, you're not right next to the station, but you're well connected by tram and bus.
The Driehoekbuurt recorded 137 total crimes in the latest data. That's a moderate number for such a dense urban area. The neighbourhood is lively and popular, with a mix of residents and visitors.
There are currently 29 apartments for sale in the Driehoekbuurt. That's a relatively small number, indicating a tight market. In the past period, 126 homes were sold, with an average selling time of 32 days, so properties do move, but not at a frantic pace.
Within a ten-minute walk you have Vinse School (secondary, 232 m), de Burght (primary, 465 m), and Theo Thijssenschool (primary, 602 m). There's also a Montessori primary school and Het Cartesius Lyceum secondary school within about 700 m. So plenty of options for families, though the neighbourhood itself has relatively few children.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that this is a canal apartment in a 1927 building, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space. The nearest park is 0.7 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
