A spacious apartment in the Rijnbuurt
This rental apartment on Rijnstraat sits in the Rijnbuurt-Midden area of Amsterdam, a part of the city with a calm, residential feel.

Frequently asked questions
About Rijnstraat 206-1, Amsterdam
Was €2,795 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent was 30% above the neighbourhood average of €2,148, which put it on the high side. However, the floor area of 78 m² is 44% larger than the local average of 54 m², so you are paying for considerably more space. The three available rentals in the area range from €1,800 to €2,345, making this the most expensive of the current listings.
How did the energy label B affect running costs?
Energy label B was a relatively efficient rating, so heating and electricity costs should be moderate compared to homes with lower labels. The label is an official registration and gives an indication of the home's energy performance. It did not specify the exact monthly costs, which would depend on your usage and the current energy prices.
What is the neighbourhood like for daily life?
The Rijnbuurt-Midden is a residential area with a young, working-age population, with 47% of residents aged between 25 and 45. Over half of households are single-person, so the area has a quiet, independent character. Daily shopping is easy with an Albert Heijn and Vomar both within 130 metres, and an Aldi just under 300 metres away.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 1.4 kilometres from the apartment. That is roughly a 15 to 20 minute walk, or a short cycle ride. The distance is manageable for those who commute by rail, though it is not directly on the doorstep.
What schools are close to this apartment?
There are several schools within easy reach. Daltonbasisschool De Rivieren and IBS Elif Amsterdam are both about 293 metres away, and the 15e montessorischool van Maas en Waal is around 446 metres. For secondary education, the nearest option is approximately 700 metres from the home.
How does this apartment compare to other rentals in the area?
The apartment is larger than most rentals in the Rijnbuurt-Midden, where the average floor area is 54 m². At 78 m², it offers 44% more space. The rent of €2,795 was above the neighbourhood average of €2,148, reflecting both the size and the current market. Only three rentals are available in the area at present, so choice is limited.
