Bloemgrachtbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis 1905 apartment on the Tweede Leliedwarsstraat sits in one of Amsterdam's most beloved neighbourhoods. With 69 m² and an energy label D, it's a classic Jordaan home with high ceilings and plenty of character. The asking price of €1,295,000 is 69% above the neighbourhood average of €765,625, which puts it on the high side, but for a home in this location, that's not unusual. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price.
The neighbourhood Bloemgrachtbuurt is part of the Jordaan, a neighbourhood known for its narrow streets, canals and lively atmosphere. With 3,020 residents, it's densely populated, the address density is 12,037 per km², making it very strongly urban. Most households are single-person (1,290 out of 1,985), and the average household size is just 1.5. There are 260 households with children, so it's not a family-dominated area. The neighbourhood has a mix of ages, with the largest group being 25 to 45 years old (1,155). There are no resident reviews available for this street.
For daily shopping, you have an Albert Heijn just around the corner and another one a couple of streets away. A Jumbo and a Dirk are also within a five-minute walk. For school runs, the Theo Thijssenschool (primary) is on your doorstep, and the Cartesius Lyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk. A GP and a child daycare centre are both just around the corner (400 m each). The nearest park or public garden is a ten-minute walk away.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via De Graaf & Groot Makelaars and also appears on Funda, so it's available through several channels.

About Tweede Leliedwarsstraat 5-2, Amsterdam
The asking price is 69% above the neighbourhood average of €765,625, which is a significant premium. However, the apartment is in the Jordaan, a highly sought-after area, and the average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €8,922. At 69 m², that would give an average of about €615,000, so this home is priced well above that. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the location and the specific features of this property.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have label B and 40% have label C, so this home is less efficient than most of the current housing stock. A D label means you can expect higher energy costs compared to more modern homes, but it's not uncommon for a property built in 1905.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short tram ride.
The total number of recorded crimes in the neighbourhood is 228. Without a per-capita figure, it's hard to compare, but the Jordaan is generally considered a safe area. The high address density means there are many eyes on the street.
