About Huiswoudstraat 4, Amsterdam
The asking price of €595,000 is 18% below the average asking price in Centrumeiland (€722,737) and also below the median of €600,000. Given that the apartment is newly built (2022) with an A+++ energy label, the price is keen compared to other homes in the neighbourhood. However, the floor area of 82 m² is 33% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 122 m², so the price per square metre is relatively higher.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. In Centrumeiland, 86.4% of homes have an A+ label or better, so this apartment is among the most efficient in an already efficient neighbourhood.
The nearest train station is 5.7 km away. This is a bit of a distance, so you would likely rely on buses, trams or a bike to reach the station. The neighbourhood is well-connected by public transport within Amsterdam, but for intercity trains, a longer journey is needed.
Centrumeiland is very family-friendly. One resident says it's 'Cosy' and that 'children can play outside without any danger.' The area has many households with children (215 out of 515 households), and there are several primary schools within walking distance. The streets are quiet and safe, with a park just 0.2 km away.
The floor area is 82 m², which typically accommodates two bedrooms, but the exact layout is not provided by the agent.
For a new-build apartment like this, it usually covers maintenance of common areas, insurance and a reserve fund, but the exact amount is not stated.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given that it's an apartment on Centrumeiland, outdoor space is not guaranteed.
In the past year, sold homes in Centrumeiland had an average listing duration of 43 days. This suggests a fairly active market, but not extremely fast. The current apartment has been priced keenly, which may attract interest.
