Saenredamstraat 67-4
Frans Halsbuurt · 1072 CD Amsterdam
A compact studio in the Frans Halsbuurt
This 30 m² studio on Saenredamstraat is a rare find in Amsterdam's Oude Pijp. At €345,000, the asking price was 55% below the neighbourhood average of €768,250, a reflection of its small size and energy label G. For context, studios in Amsterdam typically command a lower price per square metre than larger homes, but this one was at the time keenly priced given its location. This home has not been online since 8 July 2026.
The Frans Halsbuurt
The Frans Halsbuurt is a lively, densely populated area with a very strong urban feel (over 9,900 addresses per km²). One resident describes it as a "busy neighbourhood with many tourists", noting that "houses are in poor condition, lots of damp and mould, and very small and noisy. Many people with kids are moving elsewhere. Lots of rubbish in the streets and a lot of nuisance from pubs and restaurants." The neighbourhood has a high proportion of one-person households (1,155 out of 1,780 households) and a young demographic, with most residents aged 25,45. This is a neighbourhood Frans Halsbuurt that suits those who thrive on city energy rather than peace and quiet.

Frequently asked questions
About Saenredamstraat 67-4, Amsterdam
Was €345,000 a fair price for this studio?
The asking price was 55% below the neighbourhood average of €768,250, but that average was based on much larger homes (average 79 m²). At 30 m², this studio is 62% smaller than the typical home in the Frans Halsbuurt.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is G, the lowest rating. This meant the home had poor insulation and high heating costs were to be expected. In the Frans Halsbuurt, 31.3% of homes have label A, 6.3% label B, 43.8% label C, and 18.8% label D or lower. So this studio is among the least energy-efficient in the neighbourhood.
How noisy is the Frans Halsbuurt?
One resident describes it as a "busy neighbourhood with many tourists" and mentions "noise from passers-by and tourists, especially in summer" as well as "nuisance from pubs and restaurants." The area has a very high address density (9,988 per km²), so street noise is part of daily life here.
What is the public transport like?
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, so it's not within walking distance. However, the neighbourhood is very well served by trams and buses, given its central location in Amsterdam.
Are there supermarkets nearby?
Yes, several supermarkets are within a few minutes' walk: Dirk at 186 m, Coop at 200 m, and Jumbo at 209 m. Albert Heijn is a bit further at 471 m. So daily shopping is very convenient.
What schools are in the area?
Primary school Basisschool Oscar Carré is 303 m away. For secondary education, Montessori Lyceum Amsterdam (main location) is 358 m, and another location on Van Ostadestraat is 466 m. Several other secondary schools are within a 10-minute walk.
How many homes like this are available in the neighbourhood?
There were 16 homes for sale in the Frans Halsbuurt, with prices ranging from €325,000 to €1,450,000. The average price per m² was €10,103, so this studio at €11,500 per m² was slightly above that average, but at the time competitive given its location.
