This rental apartment on the Leidsegracht sits in one of Amsterdam's most picturesque canals. With 64 m² of living space, it is compact but full of character, housed in a building from 1751. The rent of €2,750 is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €3,669, making it a keen option for the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size.
The Leidsegracht-Zuid neighbourhood
Leidsegracht-Zuid is a small, central neighbourhood with 710 residents, mostly singles (270 one-person households) and few families with children (55). The area is densely built up, with an address density of over 10,000 per km², so it feels very urban. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood. The Leidsegracht-Zuid neighbourhood is part of the Grachtengordel-Zuid district.
Life on the street
Daily errands are easy: an AH to go is just around the corner, Jumbo is a couple of streets away, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk. For primary education, the 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan is a five-minute walk, and the Barlaeus Gymnasium for secondary education is also within walking distance. The municipality of Amsterdam offers extensive amenities.
