Albert Cuypstraat 200-1

The asking price of €400,000 is 44% below the average asking price in the Sarphatiparkbuurt (€715,150), but the apartment is also smaller than average at 45 m² versus 66 m². The price per m² works out to about €8,889, which is below the neighbourhood average of €10,754 per m². Given the compact size and energy label D, the price seems in line with the market.

The energy label is D. In the Sarphatiparkbuurt, most homes are older (93% built before 1945), so a D label is fairly typical for a 1891 apartment. It means you can expect moderate energy costs, but not as low as a modern A-label home. The neighbourhood has 21% A-label and 21% B-label homes, so D is on the lower end.

The Sarphatiparkbuurt is very lively, with restaurants just a couple of streets away and the park a five-minute walk. Supermarkets are on your doorstep: Jumbo and Albert Heijn are within a few hundred metres. Schools are also close by, with several primary schools within walking distance. The area is densely populated and popular with young professionals.

The nearest train station is 2.5 km away, so it's not on your doorstep. However, the neighbourhood is very well served by trams and buses, given its central location in Amsterdam. The high address density (11,231 per km²) means many transport options are nearby.

With 45 m², it is likely a one-bedroom or studio, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.

The listing does not mention a garden or balcony. Given that it's a first-floor apartment in a 19th-century building, outdoor space is unlikely but not impossible.

The neighbourhood recorded 542 total crimes in the latest data, which is relatively high for a dense urban area. However, the resident review gives the area a 7 out of 10, and the park and streets are generally busy and lively.
