Kermispad 36

The asking price is 18% above the neighbourhood average of €381,700, so it's on the high side. However, the apartment has an A energy label, which is more efficient than most homes in the area (only 20% have label A). The price per m² (€6,081) is also above the neighbourhood average of €5,290. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value energy efficiency and a quiet location.

The Circus/Kermisbuurt is a quiet, family-oriented neighbourhood in Amsterdam-Noord. Most homes were built between 1970 and 2010, and the area has a low crime rate (51 incidents). There's a park just 200 metres away, and the streets are calm. It's a residential enclave with a mix of families and older residents.

The nearest train station is 6.3 km away, so it's not within walking distance. You'd need a bus or bike to reach it. However, the neighbourhood is well-served by supermarkets and schools within a short walk.

Albert Heijn is 610 metres away (a five-minute walk), and Lidl is 791 metres away. Dekamarkt and Jumbo are also within a 15-minute walk. For daily groceries, you're well covered.

Daltonschool De Poolster (primary) is 381 metres away, and Kolom praktijkcollege Noord (secondary) is 568 metres away. Other primaries like De Bonkelaar and Montessori Kindcentrum Oostzanerwerf are within a ten-minute walk. There are plenty of options for families.

The apartment has an A energy label, which is very efficient. In the neighbourhood, only 20% of homes have label A, while 60% have label B. This means lower heating costs and a smaller environmental footprint compared to most homes in the area.
