Westelijke eilanden, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Prinseneiland sits on one of Amsterdam's most peaceful inner-city islands, surrounded by water and historic warehouses. At €650,000, the asking price is well below the neighbourhood average of €1,294,625, partly because the 67 m² floor area is smaller than the typical 126 m² in the area. For a home with an A energy label and a 2005 build, that makes it a keen entry point into this sought-after part of town. Compare with other apartments in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood Westelijke eilanden is a tight-knit community of just under 2,900 residents, with many single-person households and few families. One resident sums it up: "very nice neighbourhood". The area feels calm despite being in the city centre, with a park or public garden a couple of streets away and a restaurant on your doorstep. Crime figures are moderate, and the mix of old and new buildings gives the streets a distinctive character.
For your morning bread, Ekoplaza and Albert Heijn are both just around the corner, and a Jumbo is a five-minute walk further. Montessori Basisschool de Eilanden is a couple of streets away, while De Zeeheld primary school and Vinse School for secondary education are within a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and leisure options you'd expect from the capital, from museums to parks.
At the time of writing the home is listed via BNV Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so you have two channels to get in touch.
