• 68 m²

• C energy

Two-bedroom apartment on the quiet end of the Ferdinand Bolstraat, above the shops but far enough along that the market noise stays where it belongs. The living room faces the street and takes the morning sun; both bedrooms look out over the courtyard behind, which is where you notice how quiet the building is for its address. The kitchen was replaced around ten years ago and works well enough that a buyer could leave it alone. Original 1931 windows at the front, double-glazed at the back. Energy label C, which for a building of this age tells you the roof and the back wall have been done and the front has not.

• C energy

A family house on the Albert Cuypstraat with a deep garden — 154 m² of plot, most of it behind the kitchen, which is more outdoor space than almost anything else at this address. Three floors, three bedrooms, one bathroom on the middle floor. The through living room has been opened up at some point in the seventies and could be put back if you wanted the two rooms. The roof was insulated in the last renovation; the front windows were not, and you hear the market on Saturdays. Some buyers like that.

• 132 m²
• 3 beds
• 4 rooms
• A energy

New-build penthouse on the top floor, completed this year, with a wraparound terrace and a lift that opens into the apartment's own hallway. Floor-to-ceiling glazing along the living side, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, underfloor heating throughout. Energy label A, heat pump, no gas connection — the running costs are a fraction of the pre-war stock two streets over. Parking space in the garage below is included in the price. Still under developer's warranty.

• 39 m²
• 1 bed
• 1 room
• A energy

Compact at 39 m², but arranged so the sleeping alcove sits away from the window rather than under it — a small thing that makes the difference between a studio and a bedsit. Fitted kitchen along one wall, shower room off the hall, and enough storage built in that you would not need to add any. Built in 2022 to current insulation standards; label A and very cheap to run. No VvE surprises — the association is new, small and fully funded. A first flat, or a pied-à-terre.

• 110 m²
• 2 beds
• 4 rooms
• B energy

Bright double-upper apartment in the heart of the canal belt, with original nineteenth-century details, high ceilings and a south-facing living room overlooking the water. The building was fully renovated in 2019 while retaining the ornamental plasterwork, panelled doors and the original staircase. The living floor is arranged as one open space front to back, with tall windows on the canal side and a separate study overlooking the courtyard garden. The kitchen was replaced in 2021 with integrated appliances and a stone worktop. Two bedrooms sit on the upper floor, both with fitted wardrobes, alongside a bathroom with walk-in shower and underfloor heating. Parking is available via the municipal permit scheme, and the Westerkerk, Noordermarkt and the Jordaan cafés are all within a few minutes on foot.

• 100 m²
• 3 beds
• 4 rooms

Its own street door — no shared hallway, no stairwell to negotiate — with the living space on the lower floor and three bedrooms above. Balcony off the back bedroom, facing the afternoon sun. Built in 1992, so it is dry, square and straightforward, without the maintenance that comes with the older buildings nearer the water. There is no energy label registered for this one yet; the sellers are arranging it and it will follow before completion.

• 239 m² living
• 227 m² plot
• 5 beds
• 8 rooms
• D energy

Substantial townhouse over four floors, 239 m² in total, with a walled garden behind and the original stairwell running the full height of the building. The reception rooms on the first floor have their ceiling mouldings and panelled doors intact, and the height — a little over three metres — is what you are really buying. Five bedrooms above, arranged two and three, with the largest at the front taking the full width. The lower ground floor is currently storage and a workshop, with its own entrance to the street, and has been used as a practice by a previous owner; it would convert to an independent unit without much argument from the layout. The garden is walled on three sides and faces west, so it holds the light until late. Mature planting along the back wall, a paved terrace off the kitchen, and a brick shed that is sounder than it looks. This is a 1910 building that has been lived in rather than restored, and the specification is honest about it. The label is D and the single glazing at the front is the reason; the sellers have a quotation for secondary glazing to the front elevation which they are happy to pass on. The roof was redone in 2014 and the rear elevation insulated at the same time. Electrics are original to the 1980s rewire and will want attention within a few years. Offered with the garden furniture and the shed. Under offer at the time of writing.

• 67 m²

• C energy

A few minutes from the ferry, with the IJ at the end of the road and a balcony at the back. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, 67 m². The building dates from 1938 and has the proportions to match — proper hallway, decent ceiling height, windows that are taller than they need to be. Label C. The VvE is active and the reserve fund is healthy, which is not something you can say of every building along here.
