Elandsgrachtbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Looiersgracht sits in the heart of the Jordaan, a neighbourhood that feels like a village within the city. At €1,350,000, the asking price is 49% above the neighbourhood average of €905,436, which puts it on the high side compared to other apartments in Amsterdam. The 124 m² floor area and 1920 construction give it classic Amsterdam proportions, but the G energy label means heating costs will be significant.

The neighbourhood Elandsgrachtbuurt is popular with singles and couples, with an average household size of 1.5.

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 Looiersgracht 126B, Amsterdam
The asking price is 49% above the average asking price in the Elandsgrachtbuurt (€905,436) and also above the median of €750,000. However, this is a 124 m² apartment in the Jordaan, a sought-after area. The price per m² works out at about €10,887, which is above the neighbourhood average of €9,511 per m². The G energy label may also affect the price.
