Fokke Simonszstraat 73A

A classic Amsterdam apartment with an A energy label

This 58 m² apartment on Fokke Simonszstraat sits in the lively Weteringbuurt, part of the De Weteringschans neighbourhood. Built in 1839, it has been brought up to modern standards with an A energy label, a rare find in a street of historic buildings. At €800,000, the asking price is 33% below the neighbourhood average of €1,189,896, which makes it a keen option compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.

Weteringbuurt: central, urban, and compact

The Weteringbuurt is a dense, central neighbourhood with 2,455 residents, mostly single-person households (955) and few families with children (205). It scores a 1 on the urbanity scale, meaning very strong urbanisation, expect a lively street scene and plenty of cafes and restaurants just around the corner. The area has a high proportion of pre-war housing (85.7%), and the average home here is 113 m², so this apartment is smaller than the norm. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood.

Daily life on the street

For your morning bread run, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. Primary schools are within a five-minute walk: IKC De Kleine Reus and ASVO are both close by. For secondary education, Barlaeus Gymnasium is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and transport links you'd expect from the capital.
