NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Westlandgracht sits in a friendly, familiar pocket of Amsterdam. At 54 m² it's compact but well laid out, and the 1934 building gives it classic Amsterdam character.

For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one is priced to move.
The Westlandgrachtbuurt neighbourhood feels like a village within the city. One resident describes it as 'very pleasant, quiet & familiar', noting a mix of elderly people, families and starters. They appreciate the 'nice bustle on the street' and the proximity to Vondelpark and Rembrandtpark. The area is densely built with pre-war housing, and most homes are rented, but the 34% owner-occupied share gives a stable feel. With 3,650 residents and many single-person households, it's a lively but not overwhelming place.

Very good · 1 resident
I've been living in this neighbourhood for almost a year now. 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. Accessibility is fine; bus/tram station within walking distance & there's a metro station nearby. You're close to two parks: Vondelpark & Rembrandtpark, which is nice for the green surroundings. There are plenty of schools in the area for kids. Supermarkets, shops, restaurants within walking distance. It would be nice if some bakeries or more shops came to the neighbourhood, so it becomes even cosier and easier to stay in your own neighbourhood. Sports facilities are also nearby, which is very pleasant; I make good use of them. I have never felt unsafe for a moment; I feel that there are no people wandering around the neighbourhood who have no business being here.

About Westlandgracht 77-1, Amsterdam
The asking price of €499,000 is 27% below the average asking price in the Westlandgrachtbuurt (€678,960) and also below the median of €595,000. Given the 54 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €9,241, which is below the neighbourhood average of €10,223 per m². So it's priced keenly compared to other homes currently for sale in the area.
The home has energy label D. In the Westlandgrachtbuurt, most homes for sale have better labels: 19% have label A, 38% label B, and 14% label C. Only 24% have label D or lower. So this home is less efficient than the average listing in the neighbourhood, meaning higher heating costs to expect.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bus/tram ride. The resident review mentions that bus and tram stops are within walking distance, and a metro station is nearby, so public transport connections are good.
The Westlandgrachtbuurt has a mix of residents: many single-person households (1,145) but also 410 households with children. The resident review notes 'many elderly people, families with kids, and starters' and says there are plenty of schools nearby. The area feels safe and familiar, with parks like Vondelpark and Rembrandtpark close by.
In the past period, 66 homes were sold in the Westlandgrachtbuurt, with an average selling time of 43 days. That's a fairly brisk pace, suggesting demand is healthy. The average sold price was €634,394, close to the current average asking price, so sellers are pricing realistically.
A Dirk supermarket is 416 m away, and several Albert Heijn stores are within 500,600 m. Restaurants are just 200 m away, and a park or garden is 300 m. For daily groceries and dining out, you're well covered without needing to travel far.
At 54 m² with one bedroom (presumably), it's a classic starter apartment.
