Tuinstraat 179-3

A classic Jordaan apartment with a modern energy label

This 103 m² apartment on Tuinstraat sits in the heart of the Jordaan, where the streets hum with life and the canals are just a stroll away. The home dates from 1934 but has an A energy label, so you get the charm of an old building without the draughts. At €995,000, the price is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, but the floor area is a third larger than the typical home in the area, a rare combination. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its size and efficiency.

Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid: the heart of the Jordaan

This is the Jordaan at its best: a mix of old and young, rich and less rich, as one resident puts it. Two residents gave the neighbourhood a 9 out of 10. One says: "I was born and raised here. The shops and markets are within walking distance, and people give each other a helping hand." Another adds: "We make sure among ourselves that the neighbourhood remains safe and that you can call on someone if necessary." The area is densely built and very urban, with mostly pre-war buildings and a high proportion of single-person households. The neighbourhood Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is one of Amsterdam's most sought-after addresses.

Daily life on Tuinstraat

For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Jumbo is a couple of streets away. The Theo Thijssenschool is on your doorstep for primary education, while Het Cartesius Lyceum is a five-minute walk for secondary school. The neighbourhood has a lively restaurant scene, the nearest eatery is practically next door. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and practical amenities you'd expect from the capital.
