Kalverdriehoek, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Voetboogstraat sits right in the thick of it, the Kalverdriehoek neighbourhood, part of the historic centre. At 81 m², it's a generous size for a city-centre rental, and with an A+++ energy label it's exceptionally efficient. The rent of €2,850 is in line with the market, where the average for similar homes in the area is €2,780. For context, that's typical for apartments in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood Kalverdriehoek is one of the most densely populated corners of the city, with over 9,800 addresses per square kilometre. It's a young area, most residents are between 25 and 45, and the vast majority live alone. There are very few families with children, and the streets are lively day and night. No resident reviews are available for this neighbourhood, but the figures paint a picture of a vibrant, urban hub.
For daily groceries, you have a SPAR just around the corner, an AH to go a couple of streets away, and a Jumbo within a five-minute walk. Schools are a bit further out: the nearest primary school, 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan, is a ten-minute walk, and the Barlaeus Gymnasium is about the same distance. The nearest train station is a 1.9 km walk, so you're best off on foot or by bike for most trips.

About Voetboogstraat 5L, Amsterdam
The rent of €2,850 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €2,780, but the median is €2,900, so it's within the typical range. At €35.19 per m², it's below the average of €39.87 per m², which makes it reasonable given the size and central location.
The energy label is A+++, which is the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, so you can expect low heating and electricity costs. It's a modern standard for a building from 1900, which suggests significant renovations.
The listing does not specify the number of rooms. However, at 81 m², it's a spacious apartment that could comfortably accommodate one or two bedrooms plus a living room.
Kalverdriehoek is a very densely populated, young area in the heart of Amsterdam. Most residents are singles aged 25-45, and there are few families. The streets are busy, and you're surrounded by shops, restaurants, and nightlife. It's a vibrant, urban environment.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given the central location and the fact that it's an apartment, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space.
The closest supermarket is a SPAR at 228 metres, just around the corner. There are also two AH to go locations within 300 metres and a Jumbo at 421 metres, so daily shopping is very convenient.
The nearest primary school is 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan at 679 metres, about a ten-minute walk. For secondary education, the Barlaeus Gymnasium is 820 metres away. There are also several other schools within a kilometre.
The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. It's not on your doorstep, but the city centre is well-connected by tram and bus as well.
