About Lootsstraat 18-2, Amsterdam
The asking price of €350,000 is 27% below the average asking price in Lootsbuurt (€478,769) and also below the median of €425,000. Given the 35 m² floor area and energy label B, this is a market-rate price for a studio in Amsterdam. However, the final sale price will depend on market demand and the condition of the property.
The energy label is B, which is quite efficient for a home built in 1910. This means you can expect relatively low energy costs compared to older properties with poorer labels. In the neighbourhood, only 9.1% of homes have label A or B, so this studio is above average in energy performance.
The listing describes this as a studio, which typically means it is a single open-plan living space combining the bedroom, living room, and kitchen. The exact layout is not specified, but the floor area is 35 m², so it is a compact unit suitable for one person or a couple.
Lootsbuurt is very popular among young professionals, with a high proportion of residents aged 25-45 (870 out of 1,865).

The train station is 2.7 km away, making it easy to commute to other parts of the city.
The nearest park or public garden is 0.8 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. Given the very high urban density, green spaces are limited but accessible. The neighbourhood itself is more about city living than leafy surroundings.
