A classic Amsterdam apartment in Lastage
This apartment on Recht Boomssloot 85H sits in the heart of Lastage, one of Amsterdam's oldest neighbourhoods, where the streets hum with history and daily life. The last known asking price of €485,000 was keen, sitting 37% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €770,455. This listing did not state the energy label, so that information was missing from the agent's publication. For context, the average asking price for apartments in Amsterdam reflected the wider market, but this particular home was priced sharply against its immediate surroundings. This home has not been online since 6 November 2026.

The apartment was built in 1933 and offers a living area of 67 m² according to the BAG registration. The agent had not published details about the layout, number of rooms, or any outdoor space, so those specifics were not available.
