About Jan Bertsstraat 18, Diemen
The price of €800,000 is on the high side for an apartment in Diemen, especially given the 89 m² floor area and energy label C. However, the central location in Centrum West and the pre-war character may justify the premium. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say exactly how it stacks up, but it's certainly not a bargain.
The energy label is C, which is average for a 1930s apartment. It means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though improvements like better insulation or double glazing could bring it up to a B or A.
The nearest train station is 1.4 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk or a short cycle. That gives you direct connections to Amsterdam and beyond.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. Openbare Basisschool De Octopus is just 169 m away, St. Petrusschool and Oecumenische Basisschool De Ark are both about 583 m, and Jenaplanschool De Nieuwe Kring is 824 m. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.4 km away.
You have Vomar at 417 m and AH XL at 459 m, both just a few minutes' walk. Jumbo is 678 m away, and Albert Heijn and PLUS are a bit further at 1.2 and 1.4 km respectively. Daily shopping is very convenient.
