Frequently asked questions
About Keizersgracht 108A, Amsterdam
Is €1,500,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is above the neighbourhood median of €975,000, but the apartment is 33% larger than the average home in the area (167 m² vs 126 m²). The price per square metre is roughly in line with the local average of €13,231/m², so the premium reflects the extra space rather than an overvaluation.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is D, which is common for pre-war canal houses. This means the home is not as energy-efficient as modern builds, so heating costs will be higher than for a label A or B property. Nearly half of the homes in the neighbourhood have a label D or lower.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short tram ride. The area is well served by trams and buses, making it easy to reach other parts of Amsterdam.
