Lastage, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Oude Waal sits in one of Amsterdam's most historic neighbourhoods, where narrow streets and canal views set the scene. At 36 m² it's compact, but the location is hard to beat. With a price of €375,000, it's the cheapest of the 13 homes currently for sale in Lastage and 54% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €823,154, a keen entry point for a studio in Amsterdam.
Lastage is a small, tight-knit enclave within the Nieuwmarkt area. Residents describe it as "nice neighbourhood, people look out for each other" and "quiet neighbourhood and generally friendly people". It's a place where most homes were built before 1945, and the streets have a village feel despite the city centre being minutes away. The area is densely populated, with many singles and few families, so the vibe is more about cafés and culture than playgrounds. One resident sums it up: "We live in a nice quiet neighbourhood and contact with the surroundings is also pleasant." For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Lastage.
Your morning bread run is a couple of streets away at Albert Heijn, and there's another Albert Heijn and a SPAR within a five-minute walk. For school runs, St. Antoniusschool is just around the corner, and De Witte Olifant is a five-minute walk away. The nearest train station is a ten-minute walk, and the municipality Amsterdam offers everything from museums to markets on your doorstep.
At the time of writing the home is listed via Heeren Makelaars and also appears on Funda.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood generally looks green, quiet and pleasant. Neighbourly contact is generally very good, but there are also some canal-belt types who walk around with their nose in the air and can't even manage a greeting. But that shouldn't spoil the fun.

About Oude Waal 11-1, Amsterdam
At €375,000, this studio is the cheapest home currently for sale in Lastage and 54% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €823,154. However, it's also 36 m², which is 64% smaller than the average home in the area (101 m²). So the price reflects the compact size, but for a studio in this location it's a competitive entry point.
Lastage is a quiet, friendly enclave within Amsterdam's historic centre. Residents appreciate the peaceful streets and the sense of community, one says 'people look out for each other'. It's densely populated, mostly with singles, and almost all buildings date from before 1945. You're steps from canals, cafés, and the Nieuwmarkt, yet it feels calm.
The closest supermarket is an Albert Heijn at 239 metres, just a couple of streets away. Within a five-minute walk you'll find another Albert Heijn, a SPAR, and an Ekoplaza, so daily shopping is very convenient.
St. Antoniusschool is just around the corner at 104 metres, and De Witte Olifant is 357 metres away, both primary schools. For secondary education, the nearest school is about 2.1 km away, so a bike or tram ride.
The nearest train station is 0.9 km away, about a ten-minute walk.
The home has energy label C, which is average for an older building. It means reasonable insulation and moderate energy costs, but not as efficient as modern homes. You can expect typical heating bills for a 36 m² studio.
The price is below the neighbourhood average, and studios in central Amsterdam tend to hold value. However, the home is compact, so consider your space needs. The area is popular with young professionals and investors, but we can't advise on financial decisions.
