About Granidastraat 50-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €450,000 is 16% below the average asking price in Bosleeuw (€536,036) and also below the median of €475,000. Given the 56 m² floor area and F energy label, the price is keen compared to other homes in the neighbourhood. Recently sold properties in the area went for an average of €489,200, so this listing is priced competitively.
An F label indicates poor energy efficiency, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern home. The home was built in 1941 and likely has limited insulation. In Bosleeuw, about 31% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but it is worth budgeting for higher energy costs.
