About Hofmeyrstraat 30-1, Amsterdam
The asking price of €470,000 is close to the neighbourhood median of €450,000 and slightly below the average of €519,586. Given the 50 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to €9,400, which is in line with the neighbourhood average of €9,282. So it's a fair market price.
The apartment has energy label C. That means it's reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, about 37% of homes have label C, and another 37% have D or lower.
The CBS data records 187 total crimes in the neighbourhood, which is a moderate number for such a densely populated area. Resident reviews are mixed: one long-term resident loves it, while another reports negative experiences with neighbours. It's best to visit and get a feel for yourself.
The nearest train station is 1.0 km away, about a ten-minute walk. The high address density (8,366 per km²) means public transport is frequent.
With 50 m², it's likely a one- or two-bedroom, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The listing does not mention any outdoor space. Given the apartment is in a 1927 building, a balcony is possible but not guaranteed. The plot size is not provided, so a garden is unlikely.
The listing does not state how long it has been available. However, in the neighbourhood, sold homes took an average of 36 days to sell, which suggests a fairly active market.
