Warmondstraat 188-1
Westlandgrachtbuurt · 1058 LC Amsterdam
A pre-war apartment in a quiet, family-friendly pocket of Amsterdam
This first-floor apartment on Warmondstraat sits in the Westlandgrachtbuurt, a calm residential corner of the Hoofddorppleinbuurt. At 51 m² it was compact but well laid out, with a 1932 shell and energy label D, so heating costs were something to factor in. The last known asking price of €475,000 was keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €678,960, partly because the home was smaller than the typical 68 m² in the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one was priced to move. This home has not been online since 14 July 2026.
Westlandgrachtbuurt: cosy, green and well connected
One resident describes the area as 'cosy', noting: 'I find it very pleasant, quiet & familiar. Many elderly people, families with kids, and starters live here, which makes you feel at home right away and there's some nice bustle on the street.' The neighbourhood scores an 8 out of 10 from that single review. It's a very urban setting (over 7,200 addresses per km²), yet green spaces are just around the corner, Vondelpark and Rembrandtpark are both a couple of streets away. The neighbourhood Westlandgrachtbuurt is predominantly pre-war (94% built before 1945) and has a mix of ages, with many singles and young professionals.
Daily life: bread, school and groceries on your doorstep
For your morning loaf, Dirk is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a five-minute walk away. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including Oecumenische basisschool Nautilus and Cultuurprofielschool De Notenkraker, both about a five-minute stroll. Secondary schools are a ten-minute walk away. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and leisure amenities you'd expect, with restaurants and a park both on your doorstep.

Frequently asked questions
About Warmondstraat 188-1, Amsterdam
Was €475,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price was 30% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€678,960), but the apartment was also 25% smaller than the typical home here.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 23.8% of homes had label D or lower, while most of the current sales listings had better ratings. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating bills compared to a more modern property.
