About Eemsstraat 31-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 35% below the average asking price in Rijnbuurt-Oost (€673,625) and also below the median of €625,000. However, the apartment is smaller than average (46 m² vs 69 m²) and has an energy label D, while most homes in the neighbourhood have better labels. Given the compact size and lower energy rating, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a starter home in this sought-after area.
The energy label is D. This means the home is moderately efficient, it will have higher energy costs than homes with labels A, B or C. In the neighbourhood, 22.2% of homes have label A, 14.8% label B, and 44.4% label C, so this apartment is on the lower end of the scale. You should budget for higher heating bills compared to a more efficient home.
The area is well connected. The nearest train station is 1.5 km away, about a fifteen-minute walk. The high address density (5,846 per km²) means frequent services. For cycling, Amsterdam's network is excellent, and the city centre is about 20 minutes by bike.

At 46 m², this apartment is 33% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 69 m². It's a compact one-bedroom or studio-style home, typical of pre-war buildings in Amsterdam. The average price per m² in the area is €9,916, so this home's price per m² works out to about €9,543, slightly below average, reflecting the lower energy label.
Albert Heijn is just 174 m away, Aldi at 211 m, and Vomar at 233 m, all within a couple of streets. For daily shopping, you have three options within a three-minute walk. There's also another Albert Heijn at 713 m and an AH to go at 800 m for quick stops.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given that the property is an apartment in a pre-war building, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space. The neighbourhood has a park 400 m away for recreation.
With 46 m², it is likely a one-bedroom or studio apartment, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent for the exact layout.
