A modern apartment in Amsterdam's Houthavens-West
This 2021-built apartment on Narva-eiland sits in the up-and-coming Houthavens-West neighbourhood, a former harbour area turned into a sleek residential district. With 71 m² of living space and an A energy label, it's both efficient and contemporary. The last known asking price of €595,000 was notably lower than the neighbourhood average of €1,172,669, partly because the home was smaller than the typical 119 m² in the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size. This home has not been online since 1 September 2026.
