A brand-new apartment on Oostenburg
This brand-new apartment on the Soerapatistraat is part of the latest development on Oostenburg, an island neighbourhood taking shape in Amsterdam's eastern docklands. At 45 m² it's compact, but with energy label A+++ it's as efficient as it gets. The last known rent of €1,350 was 44% below the neighbourhood average of €2,418, a keen price for a new-build in this part of town. For context, the average rent per m² in the area was €34.51, so this home worked out well below that. You can compare it with other apartments in Amsterdam. This home has not been online since 27 July 2026.
