A modern apartment in Almere
This apartment on John Rossweg sits in a young, well-kept part of Almere, where the streets are quiet and the buildings are recent. Built in 2018, it has a fresh, contemporary feel throughout, and the energy label A means it is very efficient to run. At €1,750 per month, the rent is on the high side compared with the neighbourhood average of €2,450, but the floor area of 70 m² is 38% smaller than the local average of 113 m², so you are paying a premium per square metre. For context, apartments in Almere typically vary widely in price, and this one sits at the upper end for its size.
