Leidsebuurt-Zuidoost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment sits on the lively Leidsekade, right in the thick of things. At 64 m² it's compact but efficient, with an A energy label keeping running costs low. The €2,900 rent is 25% below the neighbourhood average of €3,850, making it a keen price for the location. For context, apartments in Amsterdam tend to command a premium, so this one stands out.
The Leidsebuurt-Zuidoost neighbourhood is one of Amsterdam's most central pockets, with an address density of nearly 9,500 per km², about as urban as it gets. The area is dominated by singles (135 one-person households) and young adults aged 25-45. There are no resident reviews available, but the figures paint a picture of a lively, transient population. The neighbourhood sees a fair amount of crime (387 incidents), typical for a busy city centre.
Your daily bread is just 26 metres away at Albert Heijn, literally on your doorstep. For a wider shop, SPAR is a couple of streets away and Lidl a five-minute walk. Schools are close too: Barlaeus Gymnasium (secondary) is just around the corner, and two primary schools, Cornelis Vrijschool and Basisschool Het Museumkwartier, are within a ten-minute walk. The restaurant scene is immediate, with one 0.1 km away. The municipality of Amsterdam keeps the city running, but here you're self-sufficient.
At the time of writing the home is listed through two channels: www.vva.amsterdam and Urban Homies on Pararius.

About Leidsekade 98D, Amsterdam
Yes, it's competitive. The average rent in the Leidsebuurt-Zuidoost neighbourhood is €3,850, so this apartment sits 25% below that. However, it's also 34% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 97 m², so the price per m² (€45.31) is actually slightly above the neighbourhood average of €41.70 per m². Overall, it's a fair price for a central Amsterdam apartment with an A label.
Properties in the Leidsebuurt-Zuidoost are rented out in an average of 21 days, which is relatively fast. This suggests a competitive market, so if you're interested, it's worth acting promptly. The neighbourhood has only 4 rentals currently available, so supply is limited.
The apartment has an energy label A, which is very efficient. This means you can expect low heating and electricity costs compared to older buildings. Given the property was built in 1880, the A label indicates it has been well modernised, likely with good insulation and efficient systems.
The nearest train station is 2.9 km away. That's about a 35-minute walk or a short tram ride.
The Leidsebuurt-Zuidoost is not particularly family-oriented. Only 25 households have children, and the average household size is 1.5 people. The area is dominated by singles and young adults. There are primary schools within walking distance, but the vibe is more urban and lively than suburban.
In central Amsterdam, on-street parking is limited and often requires a permit. Many residents rely on public transport or bicycles. The address density is very high, so car ownership is less common here.
The neighbourhood recorded 387 incidents in the latest data, which is relatively high for a small area (305 residents). This is typical for a busy city centre with lots of nightlife and tourism. It's something to be aware of, but many residents find the central location worth it.
