A pre-war apartment on the edge of Amsterdam
This 1935 apartment sits on the Antillenstraat in the Postjeskade e.o. neighbourhood, part of the Westindische Buurt in Amsterdam.

With a living area of 83 m², the asking price of €795,000 works out at €9,578 per m², which is 44% above the neighbourhood average asking price of €551,385.

Beyond the floor area and the year of construction, the listing offers little else to go on.
