Homes for sale in Landlust-Noord, Amsterdam

House prices and market figures Landlust-Noord, Amsterdam

The owner-occupied market in Landlust-Noord is relatively small: only 26% of the 1,224 homes are owner-occupied, while 74% are rented, a large proportion of which through housing associations. This makes supply scarce and competition for a vacant owner-occupied home correspondingly high. Over the past twelve months, 38 homes changed hands, at an average purchase price of €458,763. The range runs from €365,000 to €735,000, showing that both entry-level homes and more spacious apartments come onto the market. With an average living area of 55 m², this works out at a price of around €8,340 per square metre. That is below the municipal average: the WOZ value in Amsterdam is €517,000, while in Landlust-Noord it comes to €442,000. Compared to the broader district Landlust (WOZ €453,000), Landlust-Noord is therefore slightly cheaper, although the differences are small. The housing type consists mainly of porch and gallery flats from the 1950s and 1960s. For current asking prices and selling times of available homes, see the overview at the top of this page.

Living in Landlust-Noord, Amsterdam

Landlust-Noord is a densely built urban neighbourhood in Amsterdam-West with a distinct working-class character. The streets are narrow, the facades high and the homes compact, but the neighbourhood has something that is hard to describe: a certain down-to-earthness that feels pleasant if you don't like the polished facade of the canal belt. The buildings mostly date from the post-war reconstruction period, with porch flats and gallery flats that have now been considerably renovated, although the condition varies greatly per complex.

For daily shopping you go to Jan van Galenstraat, where there is an Albert Heijn and various specialist shops. Erasmuspark, just across the border with the adjacent Erasmusparkbuurt-Oost, offers a green outlet within walking distance. For a larger range of shops, you can cycle to Kinkerstraat or Mercatorplein in ten minutes. Primary schools are available in the immediate vicinity, including schools that work according to the Dalton principle, and there are several day-care centres in the neighbourhood.

In terms of accessibility, the neighbourhood scores well. Tram 7 and tram 13 run through the neighbourhood and take you to the city centre in about twenty minutes. Bus lines towards the ring road and metro station Isolatorweg (line 50) are accessible by bike. For motorists: the A10 is within five minutes via Jan van Galenstraat. Parking is tight in the evenings, a point that regularly comes up in resident feedback.

Residents appreciate the central location and the mix of people that gives the neighbourhood colour. One resident writes: "It's not a trendy neighbourhood here, but that's precisely what makes it pleasant. Everyone knows each other a bit and the atmosphere is straightforward and direct." Less positive are comments about litter on some corners and the limited green space directly in the streets themselves. Compared to the neighbouring Landlust-Zuid, Landlust-Noord appears slightly more compact and less green, but also slightly more affordable. The nearby Gibraltarbuurt has a similar character but a different street pattern. Read all reviews and neighbourhood scores on the page of Landlust-Noord.

Who is a home in Landlust-Noord interesting for?

Based on population data, the neighbourhood is clearly popular with young urbanites: the 25 to 45 age group, with over 1,000 residents, is by far the largest. This translates into a market that is attractive for first-time buyers and young dual-income couples who want to buy in Amsterdam but don't want to pay the prices of the Jordaan or Haarlemmerbuurt. Families are less represented, partly because the homes are compact. Seniors find quiet streets, but the porch flats without lifts can be a barrier. Bear in mind that supply is scarce and that overbidding is common. If you want to remain flexible, you can also look at rental homes in Landlust-Noord as an alternative.
