Spiegelbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a home with serious presence. At 265 m², it is one of the largest rental apartments in the Spiegelbuurt, nearly three times the neighbourhood average. The 17th-century building gives it character, and the C label means heating costs are moderate for a home of this size.

There are no resident reviews available for this area, but the figures speak for themselves: a very high density of addresses (9,550 per km²) and a low crime rate relative to the city average. The neighbourhood Spiegelbuurt is one of the most desirable addresses in the capital.
Your morning coffee is just around the corner at AH to go, and the larger Albert Heijn on the Vijzelstraat is a five-minute walk. For organic groceries, Ekoplaza is a couple of streets away. The Barlaeus Gymnasium is a prestigious secondary school, while primary schools like IKC De Kleine Reus and the Cornelis Vrijschool are within easy walking distance.
