Tuindorp Frankendael · 1097 HH Amsterdam
A classic Amsterdam apartment
This apartment on Pekelharingstraat sits in Tuindorp Frankendael, a leafy pocket of the city where the streets feel calm and settled. Built in 1951, it has the sturdy proportions of that era, with 80 m² of living space spread over a single floor. The energy label was C, which was a middling rating, so heating costs would sit somewhere in the middle. At €2,600 a month, the rent was 36% above the neighbourhood average of €1,909, which put it on the high side for this area. For context, that figure is in line with the going rate for apartments in Amsterdam. This home has not been online since 30 September 2026.
Tuindorp Frankendael
Tuindorp Frankendael is a small, tight-knit community, and the reviews reflect that. One resident describes it as "Cosy, green and united", adding "Nice neighbours". Another calls it "Nice", noting a "Quiet neighbourhood with lots of kids and rich yuppies." Based on two reviews, the picture is of a friendly, family-oriented street scene. The demographics back that up: around 63% of households are single-person, while 20% have children, and the largest age group is 25 to 45. It is a place where people seem to know each other, and the green spaces give it a softer, more suburban feel than much of Amsterdam. For more on the area, see the Tuindorp Frankendael neighbourhood.
