For primary schools, the Tijl Uilenspiegelschool and Rosa Boekdrukker are both a couple of streets away. A park or public garden is on your doorstep, and a GP is also within a few minutes' walk. The neighbourhood is part of the municipality of Amsterdam, so you have the whole city's amenities within reach.

About Hoofdweg 428-2, Amsterdam
The asking price is 19% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€527,143) and also below the median of €485,000. However, the apartment has an energy label D, while most homes for sale in the area have a better label. The price is keen relative to the market, but the energy performance may mean higher running costs.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 45.5% of homes for sale have label C and 27.3% have D or lower. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating and electricity costs are likely to be higher than in a more modern home.
