About Achillesstraat 114-2, Amsterdam
The asking price of €595,000 is 19% below the neighbourhood average of €733,774, which suggests it is keenly priced. However, the floor area is 73 m², and the energy label is D, so the price per m² works out to about €8,150, which is below the neighbourhood average of €9,415 per m². The home is in a sought-after area, so the price reflects a competitive entry point.
The energy label is D, which is average for an older apartment. In the neighbourhood, 37.5% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is typical. A D label means heating costs will be moderate, but not as low as a modern A-rated home. You can expect reasonable energy bills, though improvements like double glazing could help.
