Lootsbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Borgerstraat 199-3 sits in the lively Lootsbuurt, a stone's throw from the Kinkerbuurt. At 42 m², it's a compact home with an E energy label, meaning heating costs will be noticeable. The asking price of €465,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €478,769, but studios in Amsterdam are always in demand.
Lootsbuurt is a dense, urban neighbourhood with a very high address density (10,570 per km²). It's mostly young adults (47% aged 25-45) and singles (45% one-person households). There are no reviews from residents, but the area is known for its lively streets and mix of shops and eateries. The neighbourhood has a high proportion of pre-war buildings (100% built before 1945), giving it a classic Amsterdam feel.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and SPAR is a couple of streets away. There are several primary schools within a five-minute walk, including Basisschool Het Winterkoninkje and Kindcentrum De Kinkerbuurt. A restaurant is on your doorstep, and a park or garden is a ten-minute walk away.

About Borgerstraat 199-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €465,000 is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €478,769 and well above the median of €425,000. Given the 42 m² floor area, the price per m² (€11,071) is also above the neighbourhood average of €10,777. So it's on the high side, but studios in Amsterdam are scarce.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, only 9.1% of homes have label A, while 36.4% have label D or lower, so an E label is not unusual for a pre-war building.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short bike ride.
In the most recent data, there were 108 total crimes reported in Lootsbuurt. Given the dense urban environment, this is not exceptionally high, but it's worth being aware of your surroundings. The area is lively and popular with young professionals.
The nearest park or garden is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This is typical for a central Amsterdam neighbourhood. There are also several squares and green areas within a short distance.
Currently, there are 13 homes for sale in Lootsbuurt, but not all are studios. The average floor area for homes for sale is 46 m², so this studio at 42 m² is slightly smaller than average. Studios are a popular choice in Amsterdam, so they tend to sell quickly.
