Frequently asked questions
About Herengracht 193D, Amsterdam
Is €1,950,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is €1,950,000, which is 30% above the neighbourhood average of €1,499,321. However, the apartment is 180 m², 44% larger than the neighbourhood average of 125 m². The price per m² is roughly €10,833, compared to the neighbourhood average of €13,687 per m², so on a per-square-metre basis it is actually below average. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the extra space and the canal-side location.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label C is in the middle of the scale, meaning the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. In the neighbourhood, 32% of homes have label C, while 44% have D or lower. Expect moderate energy costs, but the exact amount depends on usage and the specific installations.
How is the public transport connection?
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. The central location means many destinations are within walking distance.
What is the neighbourhood like in terms of safety?
The CBS data records 271 total crimes in the neighbourhood. This is a relatively low number for such a dense urban area, but it is always wise to check recent statistics. The neighbourhood is generally considered safe, especially along the canals.
