Lootsbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Borgerstraat 224-1 sits in the lively Lootsbuurt, a stone's throw from the Kinkerbuurt. At 42 m², it's a compact but well-proportioned home, built in 1911 and with energy label C. The asking price of €425,000 is exactly in line with the median for the neighbourhood, making it a fair proposition compared to other studios in Amsterdam.
The neighbourhood Lootsbuurt is a densely populated area with a very strong urban character (over 10,000 addresses per km²). Most households are single-person (835 out of 1,865 residents), and the largest age group is 25 to 45. There are no reviews from residents, but the figures paint a picture of a young, dynamic neighbourhood with a high turnover of homes.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and SPAR is a couple of streets away. Two more Albert Heijns and an Aldi are within a ten-minute walk. Schools are close by: Basisschool Het Winterkoninkje is on your doorstep, and Kindcentrum De Kinkerbuurt is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational options you'd expect from the capital.
At the time of writing the home is listed only via De Graaf & Groot Makelaars.

About Borgerstraat 224-1, Amsterdam
Yes, the asking price matches the median sale price in Lootsbuurt exactly. The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €10,777, so for 42 m² that would come to about €452,000, slightly above the asking price. Given that studios in Amsterdam typically sell within 36 days, this listing is priced realistically.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a pre-war building. In Lootsbuurt, 45.5% of homes have label C, so this is typical. Label C means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, not as efficient as a modern home, but far from the highest bills.
The nearest train station is 2.7 km away, which is about a 35-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's a bit further than the Amsterdam average, but the neighbourhood is well served by trams and buses for connections to the city centre and beyond.
Lootsbuurt is very popular among 25- to 45-year-olds, who make up nearly half the population. With a high density of shops, restaurants (0.1 km away) and a lively street scene, it's ideal for those who enjoy urban living. The area has a young, dynamic vibe.
Yes, the nearest park or public garden is 0.8 km away, about a ten-minute walk. That's typical for this part of Amsterdam, where green space is limited but the city's many canals and squares offer outdoor relaxation.
There are 13 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €340,000 to €950,000. The average price is €478,769, so this studio is at the lower end of the market. With 81 homes sold recently, turnover is healthy.
