A room on the NDSM terrein
This is a room in a 2016 building on Kraanspoor, right in the creative heart of Amsterdam-Noord. The listing did not state an energy label, so the rest of this page was mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €804 a month, the rent sat 64% below the neighbourhood average of €2,221, which made it a keen option for a single tenant. For context, that price was typical for rooms in Amsterdam. This home has not been online since 7 November 2026.
The NDSM terrein neighbourhood
The NDSM terrein neighbourhood is a former shipyard turned cultural hotspot, with a young, transient population. Of the 4,265 residents, 72% are between 25 and 45, and 72% of households are single-person, so the vibe is distinctly student and starter-friendly. The area is known for its street art, festivals and creative workspaces, and the ferry across the IJ makes the city centre feel close. There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, so the picture here comes from the statistics.
Life on the street
For daily groceries, the nearest PLUS is just over a kilometre away, with an Albert Heijn and a Jumbo. For schools, the closest is a special primary school, followed by two primary schools. The nearest GP is 300 metres away, and a large supermarket is 500 metres off. The train station is 6.7 km away, so most journeys start with a bike or the ferry. This is all part of the municipality of Amsterdam, where the creative energy of the NDSM terrein fits right in.

Frequently asked questions
About Kraanspoor 27E11, Amsterdam
Why was there no energy label in this listing?
Roommatch had published only the street, price and floor area for this room.
Was €804 a month a fair price for this room?
At €804, the rent was 64% below the neighbourhood average of €2,221, though that average covers all rental properties, not just rooms. The floor area of 26 m² was 66% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 77 m², so the price per square metre was relatively high. For a single room in a 2016 building, the absolute rent was modest.
What is the neighbourhood like for a young tenant?
The NDSM terrein is a former shipyard turned creative hub, with a young population: 72% of residents are between 25 and 45, and 72% of households are single-person. It is known for street art, festivals and cultural venues, and the ferry across the IJ connects you to the city centre. The area has a lively, unconventional character.
How far is the nearest supermarket?
The nearest supermarket is a PLUS at about 1 km away, with an Albert Heijn at 1.4 km and a Jumbo at 1.8 km. A large supermarket is 500 metres from the home, and a GP practice is 300 metres away. For daily shopping, you would likely walk or cycle.
What schools are nearby?
The closest school is a special primary school at 768 metres, followed by two primary schools at 868 metres. There are also several other primary schools within a kilometre. For secondary education, the nearest is about 1.9 km away. The area is well served for families, though the neighbourhood itself has few children.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 6.7 km from the home. That is a distance that most residents would cover by bike or via the ferry across the IJ, which connects to the city centre. The exact travel time depends on the route and mode of transport.
