The last known asking price of €500,000 was keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €710,727, partly because the floor area was much smaller than the norm. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in size and price. This home has not been online since 28 August 2026.
Kop Zeedijk: beautiful, noisy, and full of character
The Kop Zeedijk neighbourhood is a mix of historic charm and urban grit. Based on two reviews, residents appreciate the convenience, all amenities are nearby, and the beauty of the area. One resident says: "I am generally very happy with my neighbourhood, all amenities are nearby, I have been living here very comfortably for years. The downside is that there is often a lot of rubbish on the streets." Another adds: "Let's start with the most unpleasant aspect: in the evenings, it is unbearably noisy here. When you open the window in the living room during the summer evenings to let in some cool air, it is almost impossible to hear your interlocutor due to the street noise." The neighbourhood is densely populated, with mostly small households and a young, active population.
