About Gerrit van der Veenstraat 128, Amsterdam
The asking price is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €1,658,063, so it is on the high side. However, the average price per m² in the area is €10,906, and this home is 124 m², which would give an average value of about €1,352,000 based on that metric. The premium likely reflects the specific location and condition.
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood where 23.5% of homes have label A. An E label means the home is not well insulated, so you can expect higher gas bills. It is worth factoring in potential renovation costs for insulation or heating upgrades.
Minervabuurt-Noord has a family-friendly profile: 260 households have children, and there are several primary schools within a five-minute walk. The area is quiet and green, with a park just around the corner. The mix of ages and high owner-occupancy rate suggests a stable community.
