Gerard Doubuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 49 m² apartment on Quellijnstraat is a typical piece of the Oude Pijp: a 19th-century building with high ceilings and plenty of character. The home has an energy label D, which is common for a property from 1879, so heating costs are something to factor in. Priced at €475,000, it sits 19% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €583,667, a keen price for a starter home in this popular area. For context, that's in line with the median for apartments in Amsterdam.
The Gerard Doubuurt is the heart of the Oude Pijp, known for its bustling streets, market squares, and a mix of students, young professionals, and families. With 10,488 addresses per km², it's one of the most densely populated neighbourhoods in the city. One resident sums it up: "Everything in one neighbourhood, you can easily get out in this neighbourhood." The area is dominated by pre-war housing (76.5% built before 1945), and most homes are rented, but the 23% owner-occupied stock includes many similar apartments. It's a place where you step out your door and into the action. Read more about the neighbourhood Gerard Doubuurt.
Your morning bread run is just around the corner: Dirk is 56 metres away, and Jumbo is a couple of streets further.

About Quellijnstraat 88-2, Amsterdam
The asking price of €475,000 is 19% below the neighbourhood average of €583,667 and matches the median exactly. Given the 49 m² floor area and energy label D, it's priced keenly compared to other apartments in the Gerard Doubuurt. However, the home is from 1879, so you may need to budget for maintenance and higher energy costs.
The energy label is D, which is typical for a 19th-century apartment. In the Gerard Doubuurt, 42.9% of homes have label A, so this one is less efficient. Expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home, but the location and character often compensate.
The Gerard Doubuurt is extremely lively and convenient. A Dirk supermarket is 56 metres away, and there are several other supermarkets within a few hundred metres. Schools, parks, and restaurants are all within walking distance. The area is very densely populated, so it's busy but full of amenities.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, so it's not ideal for train commuters. However, trams and buses run frequently through the Oude Pijp, connecting you to the rest of Amsterdam. The city centre is easily reachable by bike or tram.
There are 15 apartments currently for sale in the Gerard Doubuurt, with prices ranging from €295,000 to €1,295,000. The average price per m² is €9,061, so this apartment at €9,694 per m² is slightly above average, but the total price is below the neighbourhood average.
The neighbourhood recorded 301 total crimes in the latest data. Given the dense urban environment, this is not unusual for a central Amsterdam area. The resident review gives the neighbourhood an 8 out of 10, suggesting a generally positive experience.
