A modern apartment in a quiet corner of Weesp
This apartment on Fort Heemstedestraat sits in the Lanenrijk neighbourhood, a recently built part of Weesp. The home was completed in 2021 and has an A++ energy label, so it's very efficient. At 65 m² it's compact compared to the spacious family homes that dominate the area, the average home here is 160 m². The last known asking price of €450,000 was on the high side for the size, but reflected the new-build quality and low energy costs. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely, but this one was priced keenly for its age and label. This home has not been online since 9 July 2026.
