Frequently asked questions

About Oude Braak 18, Amsterdam

Is €2,800 a fair rent for this studio?

The rent of €2,800 is above the neighbourhood average of €2,450 and the median of €2,550. However, the studio is extremely small at 1 m², which is 98% smaller than the average home in the area. The price per square metre is high, but the central location in Amsterdam's city centre commands a premium. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value living in the heart of the city.

How fast do rentals go in this neighbourhood?

Rental properties in Nieuwendijk-Noord are let quickly, with an average listing time of 19 days. This suggests a fast-moving market where homes don't stay available for long. The area's central location and high demand contribute to this pace.

What is the energy label of this studio?

The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means the studio is well-insulated and should have relatively low heating costs. Given the small size, energy bills are likely to be modest.

How far is the nearest train station?

The nearest train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to other parts of Amsterdam or further afield.

What is the neighbourhood like for young professionals?

Nieuwendijk-Noord is dominated by young adults aged 25 to 45, with many single-person households. The area is very urban with a high density of amenities, restaurants, and shops. It's a lively, central location ideal for those who enjoy city life.

Are there supermarkets nearby?

Yes, there are several supermarkets within walking distance. The nearest is an AH to go at 226 metres, and a full Albert Heijn at 264 metres. Other options include SPAR and additional AH to go locations, all within a few hundred metres.

What schools are in the area?

Primary school de Burght is 310 metres away, and secondary school Vinse School is 577 metres away. Several other primary schools are within a kilometre, making it a convenient area for families with school-age children.

Is the studio suitable for a couple?

With only 1 m² of floor area, this studio is extremely compact. It is essentially a single room with minimal space. It would be challenging for two people to live comfortably, and it is best suited for a single occupant who prioritises location over space.

Neighbourhood in development

IJburg is a new district still under development and it's getting better with all the amenities and a beach nearby. And you're also quickly out of the city and into the greenery.

Decent neighbourhood but with noise pollution

I lived here for about 12 years. The neighbourhood has clear advantages: good connections by tram, bus and ferry/boat, plenty of supermarkets, gyms and practical amenities nearby. For me, however, there was one major drawback: structural low-frequency noise, demonstrably coming from commercial shipping on the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal. If you are sensitive to that, it can be very burdensome. In my case, it was clearly noticeable indoors, especially at night. Neighbours said they slept with earplugs and extra insulation offered limited to no solution. The municipality took measurements at the time and acknowledged that the noise was significant, but indicated they could do little or nothing about it because the source fell outside their direct authority. My honest advice: visit this neighbourhood not only during the day, but also in the evening and at night, and pay specific attention to low-frequency humming or vibrations. For people sensitive to noise, I would personally strongly advise against this location.

Lovely living in Bolestein! Unfortunately my former home is empty... We're going into the seventh year... Such a shame, there's so much potential in this house!

Nice, quiet and reasonably cosy neighbourhood. Good accessibility, the Amsterdam Forest nearby. Lots of different facilities within walking distance. Nice to live here with a family and pets! Quite a few schools within cycling distance. Hygiene in the neighbourhood is above the average level in Amsterdam. VUmc very close by.

Best spot on the water in Amsterdam

At the end of the Silodam lies the striking MVRDV building. Surrounded by water on all sides. Every apartment has a view of the IJ and/or the Oude Houthaven. The views are therefore phenomenal and every day is different due to the weather. The sunrises and sunsets are unbeatable. Because the building is at the end of the Silodam, there is no through traffic and every person is either a resident or a visitor. This makes it, by Amsterdam standards, an exceptionally safe living environment. There is little turnover. The residents of this building form a close-knit community. A nice mix of families with and without children and single people who help each other where needed. And that too is a special quality in an increasingly transient Amsterdam. Within walking distance are the Haarlemmerdijk and the markets where you can find all the hustle and bustle if you feel like it. On the Silodam there is peace and quiet, a delight for body and mind. The wind, the seagulls, the waves on the IJ, the boats, occasionally a cruise ship, and every 5 years Sail! A little paradise in Amsterdam? Absolutely!

Because we are on the outskirts, there is no through traffic. In the middle of the street a large playground with a table tennis table and a small football pitch. And playground equipment. Behind our house only meadows.

Quiet and beautiful part of Amsterdam

It's a nice quiet neighbourhood on the edge of the city but still close to many good amenities that a city has to offer. The neighbourhood is still becoming more beautiful.
