About Singel 398, Amsterdam
The rent is 49% above the neighbourhood average of €4,667, but the home is also 33% larger than the average (183 m² vs 138 m²). Given the historic canal location and the size, the price is on the high side but reflects the unique character of the property.
In Felix Meritisbuurt, rental homes are typically let within 20 days on average. That suggests a quick market, so if you're interested, it's worth acting promptly.
The home has energy label C. That's a decent rating for a 1712 building, meaning it's reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy costs.
The nearest train station is 2.0 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short tram ride.
Within walking distance you'll find the 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan (453 m) and the Barlaeus Gymnasium (808 m). There are also several other primary and secondary schools in the area.
The listing does not mention a garden or terrace. The plot is 77 m², but that typically includes the building footprint, so outdoor space is not confirmed.
