Cas Oorthuyskade 13
Joris Ivenspleinbuurt, Amsterdam
AreaA waterside apartment with a view
This apartment on Cas Oorthuyskade sits on the water's edge in IJburg, with light and space that immediately feels calm. At 63 m² it is compact, but the layout is efficient and the year of construction (2005) means modern finishes throughout. The asking price of €719,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average of €550,000, partly because the home is 28% smaller than the typical 88 m² in the area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one stands out for its location on the water.

What does energy label G mean for this home?
