Elandsgrachtbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Tweede Laurierdwarsstraat sits in the heart of the Jordaan, a neighbourhood that feels like a village within the city. At €485,000, the asking price is 46% below the neighbourhood average of €905,436, a striking difference, partly because the 51 m² floor area is half the local average. For a well-maintained 2004 apartment with energy label B, this is a keen price compared to other apartments in Amsterdam.
The Elandsgrachtbuurt is described by residents as a cosy neighbourhood with familiar faces. One resident says: "I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other." Another notes: "This neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything." Based on three reviews, the neighbourhood scores an 8.79 out of 10. The area is densely urban with over 11,800 addresses per km², and most homes are pre-war, but this apartment was built in 2004, a relative newcomer. The neighbourhood Elandsgrachtbuurt is popular with singles and couples, with many one-person households.
Your morning routine is easy: Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza and Dirk are a couple of streets away. For school runs, the 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan is a five-minute walk, and Basisschool Dr. Rijk Kramer is a ten-minute walk. The Jordaan College is also nearby. The municipality Amsterdam offers everything you need, from restaurants to a park. The central station is 2.6 km away, but trams and buses are plentiful.

I think the Elandsgracht neighbourhood is great, actually the Jordaan too. Lots of familiar faces so everyone is somewhat known to each other. The Jordaan also has a large share of history with names like André Hazes, Willem Holleeder and tante Leen. In short, a nice neighbourhood where a lot happened back in the day and very nice neighbours!
Auto-translated to English by AIThis neighbourhood is really a piece of Amsterdam. Old canals, a bit messy, but cosy. You have those little shops and pubs there, a real mix of everything. By tram you're in the city centre in no time, so that's great. Tourists? Yes, you see them, but it doesn't really bother me. I feel quite safe there, despite the crowds.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's cosy here with many shops and eateries in the neighbourhood. In my opinion, my street is visited too much by loitering youths; my neighbours seem to find that cosy too. Little to no trouble with crime. Good public transport connections.
