A compact room on the NDSM terrein
This is a 26 m² room in a 2016 building on Kraanspoor, right in the creative heart of Amsterdam-Noord. This listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €755 a month, the rent sits 65% below the neighbourhood average of €2,127, which makes sense for a room rather than a whole apartment. For context, rooms in Amsterdam vary widely in price depending on size and location.

How does the size of this room compare to others in the neighbourhood?
