About Het Breed 785, Amsterdam
The asking price of €475,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €427,500 and the median of €437,500. However, this apartment is larger than average (99 m² vs 87 m²), and only four homes are currently for sale in Plan van Gool. The price per m² (€4,798) is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €4,988, so it's not out of line for the size.
One resident mentions that while they enjoy living there, there has been a lot of violence lately and many shops are closing down, which makes it feel less safe. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 133, but no further breakdown is available. It's worth noting that the other resident is very satisfied and finds it quiet and clean.
The nearest train station is 5.5 km away, which is about a ten-minute drive or a longer cycle. Public transport within the neighbourhood is not detailed, but the area has a high density of addresses (3,688 per km²), indicating good urban connectivity.
Two primary schools are within a couple of streets away: IKC De Buikslotermeer (212 m) and Basisschool Het Wespennest (217 m). For secondary education, ABC Noorderlicht (454 m) and Bredero (556 m) are within walking distance. The neighbourhood has a good selection of schools within a 5 km radius.
The apartment has energy label C, which is average for the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have label C and another 40% have label B. Label C means moderate energy efficiency; heating costs will be reasonable but not as low as with A or B labels.
Currently, only four homes are for sale in the neighbourhood, which is a very low number. This suggests limited supply. The average time to sell a home here is 43 days, indicating a fairly active market.
