Leidsebuurt-Noordoost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 177 m² apartment on Prinsengracht sits in the heart of Amsterdam's lively Leidsebuurt-Noordoost. Built in 1690, it carries an F energy label, so expect high heating costs. 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, a premium that reflects its size and location. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one is clearly at the top end.
The neighbourhood Leidsebuurt-Noordoost is intensely urban, with an address density of 9,487 per km². Most homes are pre-war, and 27% are owner-occupied. The one resident review sums it up: "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 reviewer notes that neighbours are not very involved with each other. The neighbourhood has many single-person households and a young population, with most residents between 25 and 45.
For groceries, you have an AH to go just around the corner, an Albert Heijn a couple of streets away, and a SPAR within a five-minute walk.

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.
