A historic apartment on the edge of the canal belt
This 73 m² apartment on Droogbak sits in a 1770 building with energy label A, a rare combination of age and efficiency.

Frequently asked questions
About Droogbak 7H, Amsterdam
Is €7,500 a fair price for this apartment?
The rent is above the neighbourhood average of €5,225 and the median of €5,225. At €103 per m², it is also higher than the average of €71 per m² in Haarlemmerbuurt-Oost. However, the apartment has an A energy label and a historic building character, which partly explains the premium. Only two rental apartments are currently available in the area, so choice is limited.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means heating and electricity costs will be relatively low compared to older buildings. Given the building dates from 1770, the label A is a strong point, it indicates the home has been well insulated and modernised.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, about a 15-minute walk. That makes it convenient for trips out of the city, though for daily commuting within Amsterdam you'll likely use trams or the metro.
What is the neighbourhood like for dining out?
Restaurants are on your doorstep, the nearest is just 0.1 km away. The Haarlemmerbuurt is known for its many cafes and eateries, so you'll have plenty of options within a short walk.
Are there parks nearby?
The nearest park or public garden is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That's reasonable for central Amsterdam, though you won't have a large green space right outside the door.
How many bedrooms does the apartment have?
The floor area is 73 m², which typically accommodates one or two bedrooms, but you would need to check the layout with the agent.
