The average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €8,433, and this home works out at about €8,036 per m², slightly below average.

The home has energy label B, which is good for a building from 1926. In the neighbourhood, 28.6% of homes have label B, while the majority (71.4%) have label D or lower. Label B means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so heating costs should be manageable compared to older, uninsulated properties.

The nearest train station is 2.9 km away. That is about a 35-minute walk or a short cycle ride.

Several primary schools are within walking distance. Rosa Boekdrukker is 241 m away, Joop en Willy Westerweel is 353 m, and Islamitische basisschool Al Maes is 369 m. Secondary education is 1.4 km away, so older children may need to cycle or take public transport.

There are currently 14 apartments for sale in Jan Maijenbuurt, with prices ranging from €400,000 to €680,000. The average floor area of these listings is 60 m², so this 56 m² home is slightly smaller than average but priced competitively.

The neighbourhood recorded 149 total crimes in the latest data. Without a breakdown, it is hard to judge the severity, but the area is a typical urban Amsterdam neighbourhood. The high address density means there are many people around, which can be both a positive and a negative.

The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that the property is an apartment in a pre-war building, it is unlikely to have private outdoor space, but you would need to check the floor plan or ask the agent for details.
