A new-build apartment on the NDSM terrein
This apartment on ks. Ibisplantsoen 18 sits in the NDSM terrein, the former shipyard district in Amsterdam-Noord that has become a creative hotspot. Built in 2023 and carrying an A+++ energy label, it is a modern, efficient home in a neighbourhood that still feels like it is finding its feet. At €1,975 per month, the rent sat about 15% below the neighbourhood average of €2,332, which made it keenly priced for the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam in general tend to command higher rents, so this one stands out. This home has not been online since 12 October 2026.
Life on the NDSM terrein
The NDSM terrein neighbourhood is young and dense, with 72% of residents aged between 25 and 45 and 73% living alone. It is a place of converted warehouses, street art and a lively waterfront, though the resident reviews are not yet available to give a personal take. The housing stock is almost entirely apartments, and the area has a strong urban feel with an address density of over 2,000 per square kilometre. With few households with children, the vibe is more about studios and shared spaces than family life.
Daily life around the corner
For daily shopping, the nearest PLUS supermarket is just around the corner, and an Albert Heijn is a ten-minute walk away. Schools are within easy reach too, with Kindcentrum De Baanbreker and OBS Blijhaven both about 744 metres from the door, and IKC NoordRijk a bit further. The restaurant scene is literally on your doorstep, with the nearest eatery just 100 metres away. The municipality of Amsterdam as a whole offers plenty of options, but here you can keep it local.

Frequently asked questions
About ks. Ibisplantsoen 18, Amsterdam
Was €1,975 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent was about 15% below the neighbourhood average of €2,332, which made it keenly priced for the NDSM terrein. The average rent per square metre in the area was €29.64, and this apartment worked out at roughly €31.85 per m², so it was slightly above that per-square-metre figure but at the time under the typical total. Given the new build and A+++ label, it sits well within the local market.
What does the A+++ energy label mean for this home?
An A+++ label is the most efficient rating on the scale, which means the home is designed to use very little energy for heating and hot water. This is an official registration from the Dutch energy label register, and for a 2023 build it reflects modern construction standards.
How long do rentals typically stay on the market in this neighbourhood?
Homes in the NDSM terrein are rented out on average within 20 days, according to local market data. That was a fairly quick turnaround, which suggested there was steady demand for rentals here. With 53 rentals currently available and 427 rented out in the past period, the market is active but not oversupplied.
What kind of neighbourhood is the NDSM terrein?
The NDSM terrein is a former shipyard area that has transformed into a creative and cultural hub. It is densely populated, with a high proportion of young adults and single-person households. The vibe is urban and industrial, with street art, cultural venues and a waterfront setting. It is not a typical family neighbourhood, but it has a distinct character that appeals to many.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is about 6.7 kilometres from the apartment. That is a bit of a distance, so you would likely rely on other transport options for daily commuting. The area is well connected by other means, but for train travel you would need to factor in extra time to get to the station.
What are the closest supermarkets and schools?
The nearest supermarket is a PLUS at about 943 metres, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. An Albert Heijn is about 1.5 kilometres away, and a Jumbo and Lidl are within 1.8 kilometres. For schools, Kindcentrum De Baanbreker and OBS Blijhaven are both about 744 metres away, with IKC NoordRijk at 991 metres. So daily errands and school runs are manageable on foot or by bike.
