About Blauwpijpstraat 29, Amsterdam
The asking price of €650,000 is 31% below the average asking price in Borneo (€946,400) and also below the median of €732,500. However, the apartment is smaller than average (78 m² vs 136 m²). Given the lower price per square metre (€8,333 vs the neighbourhood average of €7,427), it appears priced for its size.
The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect moderate energy bills. In the neighbourhood, 89% of homes have label A, so this is slightly less efficient than the local norm, but still good.
The nearest train station is 2.3 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride.
Montessorischool Op de Kade is just 88 metres away, making it ideal for young children. Basisschool De Achthoek is 319 metres away, and Montessori Lyceum Pax (secondary) is 296 metres away. Several other schools are within a kilometre.
