Kadijken, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Geschutswerf 57 sits in one of Amsterdam's most central neighbourhoods, where the streets hum with life and the canals are never far away. At 159 m², it is more than twice the size of the average rental in the area, which explains the rent of €4,250, 35% above the neighbourhood average of €3,158. That puts it on the high side, but for a home this generous in such a sought-after pocket of the city, it is in line with what you would expect. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its sheer space.
