Elandsgrachtbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1907 apartment on the Laurierstraat sits in the heart of the Jordaan, where the streets hum with history and everyday life. At €1,050,000, the asking price is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €905,436, partly because the 72 m² floor area is 29% smaller than the local norm.

The Elandsgrachtbuurt is a tight-knit corner of the Jordaan. One resident calls it a "cosy neighbourhood with familiar faces," adding that "lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other." Another says it's "really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy." A third review sums it up as "cosy here with many shops and eateries." The area is densely urban, with 11,830 addresses per km², and most homes are pre-war. The neighbourhood Elandsgrachtbuurt is popular for its mix of locals and visitors.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Jumbo are a couple of streets away. The 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool Dr. Rijk Kramer is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers extensive public transport, with a tram stop nearby and the central station about 2.6 km away.

I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other. The Jordaan also has a large share of history with names like André Hazes, Willem Holleeder and tante Leen. In short, a nice neighbourhood where a lot happened back in the day and very nice neighbours!
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything. By tram you're in the city centre in no time, so that's great. Tourists? Yes, you see them, but it doesn't really bother me. I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy here with many shops and eateries in the neighbourhood. In my opinion, my street is visited too much by loitering youths; my neighbours seem to find that cosy too. Little to no trouble with crime. Good public transport connections.

About Laurierstraat 77A, Amsterdam
The asking price is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €905,436, but the apartment is also smaller than average (72 m² vs 101 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €14,583, which is high compared to the neighbourhood average of €9,511/m². However, the energy label A is a strong asset, and the Jordaan location commands a premium.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means low heating costs and a modern standard of insulation, unusual for a 1907 building. In the neighbourhood, only 29.2% of homes have label A, so this is a clear advantage.
Residents describe it as cosy and familiar, with many shops and eateries. There are several supermarkets within a five-minute walk, including Albert Heijn and Ekoplaza. The area is very urban, with a high density of addresses, but also has parks within a ten-minute walk.
The 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan (primary) is about 218 m away, and Basisschool Dr. Rijk Kramer is 481 m away. For secondary education, the Jordaan College is just 158 m away. All are within a short walk.
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short tram ride. The area is well served by trams and buses.
Residents feel safe. One says "little to no trouble with crime," and another mentions feeling "quite safe there, despite the crowds." The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 421, but this is for the whole area.
