A classic Amsterdam apartment with a story
This apartment sits on the Veerstraat in the Schinkelbuurt-Noord neighbourhood, a stone's throw from the Vondelpark and the lively streets of Amsterdam Zuid. The building dates from 1913, so it carries the character of a pre-war Amsterdam home. The asking price was €975,000. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price, and this one sat at the upper end of what was available in the neighbourhood, where the average asking price was €755,574. This home has not been online since 29 October 2026.
Inside the home
The agent listed this as a five-room apartment with three bedrooms and one bathroom. The living area was given as 115 m² in the agent's listing, while the BAG registration records 113 m². The price per square metre worked out to €8,478 based on the agent's figure. This listing did not state the energy label, so that information was missing from the agent's description. The home was built in 1913, a fact that speaks to its age but says nothing about its condition.
