Leidsebuurt-Noordoost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with presence. On one of Amsterdam's most famous canals, the Prinsengracht, this 177 m² apartment sits in a 1690 building, the kind of address that comes with history and a sense of occasion. At €2,350,000, it is the most expensive of the 16 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood and 102% above the average asking price of €1,160,906. That puts it on the high side, but the size and location are exceptional. For context, see other apartments in Amsterdam.
This is a lively, urban pocket of Amsterdam. One resident describes it as 'Lively', adding: 'It's incredibly busy here, which has both advantages and disadvantages. There's a lot of noise and few rules because of it. But there's also plenty of cosiness and always something to do!' The neighbourhood is densely built, with a very high address density of 9,487 per km². Most homes are apartments, and the area is popular with singles and young professionals, 45% of residents are between 25 and 45. The average household size is just 1.4. This is the Leidsebuurt-Noordoost neighbourhood in a nutshell: vibrant, busy, and full of energy.
Daily life here revolves around the city's pulse. For groceries, an Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and a SPAR is a couple of streets away. For a quick bite, an AH to go is on your doorstep. Schools are close too: Barlaeus Gymnasium is a couple of streets away, and primary schools like IKC De Kleine Reus are within a five-minute walk. The area is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, so everything the city offers, from museums to restaurants, is within easy reach.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Visch en van Zeggelaar and also appears on Pararius.

It's incredibly busy here, which has both advantages and disadvantages. There's a lot of noise and few rules because of it. But there's also plenty of cosiness and always something to do! I think it's a shame that the residents are not at all involved with each other. This would be the biggest point for improvement.

The asking price is 102% above the neighbourhood average of €1,160,906 and is the highest of the 16 homes currently for sale in Leidsebuurt-Noordoost. However, the floor area of 177 m² is 77% larger than the neighbourhood average of 100 m². The price per m² works out at about €13,277, which is above the neighbourhood average of €12,020 per m². Whether it is fair depends on how you value the canal location and the generous space.
The energy label is F, which is the second-lowest label on the scale. This means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively high heating and electricity costs. The label is an official registration from EP-Online and does not necessarily indicate the condition of the building itself, it could be due to the heating system or other factors.
The neighbourhood is described as very lively and busy. One resident notes that there is a lot of noise and few rules, but also plenty of cosiness and always something to do. The area has a high urbanity level (1 out of 5, very strong) and a very high address density.

The energy label F may give some indication of the heating system, but it does not directly reflect the state of the roof, foundations, or other structural elements. A building inspection would be needed to assess the actual condition.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not provided, so it is not possible to infer outdoor space. If outdoor space is important to you, you would need to ask the agent directly.
