House prices and market figures for Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid, Amsterdam
The owner-occupied market in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is small but expensive. Of the approximately 1,981 homes in the neighbourhood, only 26% are owner-occupied; the vast majority are rental properties, 47% of which are owned by housing corporations. This limited owner-occupancy rate means that relatively few homes come onto the market, and when they do, they sell quickly.
The average WOZ value is €568,000, almost equal to the district average of the Jordaan (€567,000) and clearly above the Amsterdam average of €517,000. Over the past twelve months, 38 homes were sold at an average purchase price of €999,579. The range is wide: from €350,000 to €3,200,000. With an average living area of 73 m², the average price per square metre comes to over €13,700. These are Jordaan prices in the classic sense of the word. Most of the sold homes are apartments in pre-war buildings; detached houses or single-family homes are rare here. At the top of this page, you can see the current asking prices and average time to sale for the most recent market conditions.
Living in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid, Amsterdam
Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is the part of the Jordaan south of the Anjeliersgracht, wedged between the Westerstraat, the Prinsengracht and the Lijnbaansgracht. The streets are narrow, the canal houses tall and leaning, and the pavements wide enough for a terrace chair but not much more. It is a neighbourhood you experience rather than describe: the sound of an organ at the Noordermarkt on Saturday morning, the smell of fresh stroopwafels at a stall on the Westerstraat, the cyclists zigzagging across the Anjeliersgracht.
The housing stock consists almost exclusively of apartments in canal houses and cross-street houses from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, supplemented by some twentieth-century infill buildings. High ceilings, narrow staircases and no lift are the norm. Anyone considering buying an apartment in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid would do well to take that into account, especially if you want to move furniture or have a pram.
The neighbourhood scores a 10 on accessibility, and that is accurate. Trams 13 and 17 run via the Marnixstraat and the Rozengracht, and within ten minutes by bike you are at Amsterdam Central Station or Leidseplein. You park your car preferably elsewhere: parking pressure is high and a permit is no guarantee of a spot at your door. For daily groceries, you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood: the Albert Heijn on the Westerstraat, the organic market at the Noordermarkt (Monday and Saturday) and the farmers' market on the Lindengracht (Saturday) are within walking distance. The Westerkerk with its tower is the neighbourhood's landmark, and the Anne Frank House attracts visitors from all over the world daily, giving the Prinsengracht a certain tourist allure at busy times.
Residents are remarkably positive. The neighbourhood scores a 9.0 on the neighbourhood main page of Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid, with a perfect 10 for accessibility, community and education. Francisca de Graaf, born and raised in the neighbourhood, writes: "There is only one Jordaan! I would not want to swap this neighbourhood for any other district in Amsterdam. The shops and markets are within walking distance of my home. And people give each other a helping hand when needed." That sense of mutual involvement in an otherwise busy city is what distinguishes the neighbourhood from surrounding areas such as the Grachtengordel-West, which looks nicer in photos but feels more anonymous. The lowest scores are for beauty (7.5) and green space (8.0). That is accurate: structural green space is almost entirely absent. Westerpark is within cycling distance, but there is no park around the corner.
Compared to sister neighbourhoods such as Anjeliersbuurt-Noord or the Bloemgrachtbuurt, Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is slightly more central and busier, but also slightly livelier in terms of catering and shops. The Driehoekbuurt and the Zaagpoortbuurt are quieter alternatives for those who want less tourist traffic. Of the 2,950 residents, the largest group is between 25 and 45 years old, and 61% are highly educated. Single-person households dominate (1,330 of the households), giving the neighbourhood an urban, individualistic character, but the reviews show that a strong social fabric also exists.
Who is a home in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid interesting for?
Buying in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is reserved for buyers with a substantial budget. With an average purchase price of nearly one million euros and a price per square metre of over €13,700, first-time buyers without existing equity or family capital can hardly qualify. The neighbourhood mainly attracts movers, dual-income couples and people who consciously choose the Jordaan lifestyle over more living space elsewhere. Supply is scarce: 38 homes were sold in the past year, and overbidding is more the rule than the exception. Those looking for more space for the same money would be better off looking at Marnixbuurt-Noord or districts outside the ring. Considering renting as an intermediate step? Then check out the rental properties in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid as an alternative.

There is virtually no structural green space, but Westerpark is within cycling distance.
Is Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid suitable for first-time buyers?
With an average selling price of nearly one million euros, buying a home in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid is financially out of reach for most first-time buyers. The neighbourhood mainly attracts movers and dual-income households with existing equity or high incomes. First-time buyers who still want to live in the Jordaan would be better off looking at rental properties or more affordable neighbourhoods elsewhere in Amsterdam.
How is the accessibility of Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid?
Residents give accessibility a perfect 10. Trams 13 and 17 run via Marnixstraat and Rozengracht, and Amsterdam Central Station is about ten minutes away by bike. The car is less practical: parking pressure is high and paid parking applies throughout the neighbourhood. For daily travel, the bicycle is by far the most used mode of transport.
What types of homes are for sale in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid?
The supply of owner-occupied homes in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid consists almost exclusively of apartments in pre-war canal houses and side-street homes, mostly dating from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. High ceilings and narrow staircases are characteristic; lifts are rare. Buying an apartment in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid usually also means buying into a Homeowners' Association with shared maintenance of the building.
Is parking a problem when buying a home in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid?
Parking is a real consideration when buying a home in Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid. The neighbourhood falls entirely within a paid parking zone and parking pressure is high. A parking permit does not guarantee a spot right outside. Homes with their own parking space or garage are rare and significantly increase the price. Anyone who needs a car daily should take this into account.
I was born and raised in this neighbourhood. I wouldn't want to swap this neighbourhood for any other district in Amsterdam. The shops and markets are within walking distance of my home. And people give each other a helping hand when needed. The social contacts are great.
