Leliegracht en omgeving, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Keizersgracht is a piece of Amsterdam's Golden Age, built in 1735, but it has been brought firmly into the 21st century with an A++ energy label, a rarity in a neighbourhood where most homes date from before 1945. At 114 m², it's a generous size for the Grachtengordel. The asking price of €1,750,000 is 19% above the neighbourhood average of €1,466,161, so it's on the high side, reflecting the premium for a top-tier location and exceptional energy performance. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out.
The neighbourhood Leliegracht e.o. is the heart of the UNESCO-listed canal ring. It's densely built and extremely urban, with over 10,000 addresses per km². The population is largely young adults (38% aged 25-45) and singles (45% of households are one-person). Families with children make up only 7% of households. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the figures paint a picture of a lively, central area with a mix of professionals and students. Average incomes are high, and the housing stock is almost entirely pre-war apartments.
For your morning bread, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and another is a couple of streets away. A Jumbo is a five-minute walk. For school runs, the Theo Thijssenschool Amsterdam (primary) is a five-minute walk, and the 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan is a bit further. Secondary education is within a ten-minute walk, with Het Cartesius Lyceum. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational amenities you'd expect from the capital.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via Fransen & Kroes Makelaars.

About Keizersgracht 171F, Amsterdam
The asking price is 19% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€1,466,161) and well above the median of €975,000. However, this apartment has an exceptional A++ energy label and a prime canal location. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €1,295,176, so the price is on the high side, but the energy efficiency and location are unique selling points.
An A++ label means the home is extremely energy-efficient, so you can expect very low heating and electricity bills. In this neighbourhood, only 3.7% of homes for sale have an A+ label or better, so this is a rare find. The modern insulation and likely heat pump keep energy costs minimal.
Leliegracht e.o. is the historic canal belt, very central and lively. You have supermarkets, restaurants, and cafes on your doorstep. The area is densely populated with many singles and young professionals. It's a short walk to the Jordaan and the city centre. Public transport is excellent, with a train station 1.8 km away.
There are currently 31 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, but only a fraction are apartments of this size and quality. The average floor area of homes for sale is 126 m², so this 114 m² apartment is close to the average. The supply is limited, and properties with an A++ label are extremely rare.
Primary schools within walking distance include Theo Thijssenschool Amsterdam (420 m) and 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan (620 m). For secondary education, Het Cartesius Lyceum is 707 m away. There are also several specialised schools in the area.
The neighbourhood recorded 271 total crimes in the latest data. Given the high population density and central location, this is typical for an urban area. The canal belt is generally considered safe, with a visible police presence and many residents.
