AI summary

A compact flat in a lively Amsterdam neighbourhood

This 48 m² apartment on the Elckerlijcstraat sits in the Erasmusparkbuurt-West area of Amsterdam. Built in 1940, it has an energy label D, so heating costs are something to keep an eye on. At €489,500, the price is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €469,000, but below the average of €529,927, so it's in line with the market for apartments in Amsterdam.

Erasmusparkbuurt-West: a mixed, urban pocket

The neighbourhood is densely built and very urban, with over 8,500 addresses per km². Most homes are flats, and about half are owner-occupied. The population skews young: nearly half are between 25 and 45. One resident who has lived here for over 15 years calls it a "decent neighbourhood", noting it's always been nice except for the occasional nuisance neighbour. They do point out that many homes have been bought up by landlords and sublet at high rents. The neighbourhood Erasmusparkbuurt-West has a small park just a couple of streets away.

Daily life on the street

For your morning bread, Dirk is on your doorstep, and Albert Heijn is just around the corner. Two primary schools are within a five-minute walk: Enderun Hisar Amsterdam and Tijl Uilenspiegelschool. The municipality Amsterdam offers plenty of restaurants and a library within walking distance, and the train station is a ten-minute walk away.

Decent neighbourhood

I've lived here for over 15 years and it's always been nice (except for that one idiot living above me, but oh well). The only downside is the number of homes bought up by landlords and then sublet at too high a price.

Frequently asked questions

About Elckerlijcstraat 40, Amsterdam

Is €489,500 a fair price for this flat?

The asking price of €489,500 is slightly above the neighbourhood median of €469,000 but below the average sold price of €512,983. Given the 48 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €10,198, which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €8,508 per m². So it's on the high side for the size, but not out of line with the local market.

What is the neighbourhood like?

Erasmusparkbuurt-West is a very urban area with a young population, nearly half of residents are between 25 and 45. It's a mix of owner-occupied and rental flats, with a small park nearby.
