Keizersgracht 138C

The asking price is 56% below the neighbourhood average of €1,466,161, but the apartment is also 44% smaller than the typical home in the area. At €9,271 per m², it is below the neighbourhood average of €13,231 per m². Given the prime canal location and the compact size, the price is in line with what you would expect for a smaller apartment in this sought-after part of Amsterdam.

The energy label is C. That is a decent score for a 1730 building, it means the home has some insulation and double glazing, so heating costs will be moderate but not as low as a modern A-label home. In the neighbourhood, 26% of homes have label C, while 48% have D or lower, so this apartment is above average for its age.

The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. That gives you direct connections to Schiphol and the rest of the country, though for daily commuting you might rely more on the trams and metro that run through the city centre.

Leliegracht e.o. is a quiet residential part of the canal belt, with a high density of singles and young professionals. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes within a couple of streets away, and a supermarket is just around the corner. The area is very walkable, and the canals make it a pleasant place to live.

There are currently 31 apartments for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €435,000 to €9,750,000. The median price is €975,000, so this apartment is below the median. In the past year, 74 homes were sold, with an average selling time of 41 days, indicating a fairly active market.
