About Bernard Zweerskade 19-3, Amsterdam
At €1,000,000, this is the cheapest home currently for sale in the Diepenbrockbuurt, where the average asking price is €5,393,462. The price per square metre works out at about €8,333, compared to the neighbourhood average of €15,888. However, the apartment is also smaller than most homes here (120 m² vs 300 m² average) and has an F energy label, which means higher energy costs. So the price is keen relative to the neighbourhood, but reflects the size and energy efficiency.
The energy label is F, which is one of the least efficient ratings. This means the home is likely to have high heating and electricity costs compared to a more modern property. In the Diepenbrockbuurt, about 33% of homes have a label of D or lower, so an F label is not unusual for a building from 1931. You should budget for significant energy bills.
The Diepenbrockbuurt has a mix of households: about 125 families with children and 80 without.
