Valeriusbuurt-West, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Koninginneweg sits in a stately 1903 building, with high ceilings and original details that give it a sense of history. At 57 m² it is compact, but the layout makes the most of the space. The asking price of €700,000 is 51% below the neighbourhood average of €1,441,096, which is partly explained by the smaller floor area, the average apartment here is 116 m². Compared to other apartments in Amsterdam, this is a relatively accessible entry point into the city's owner-occupied market.
The Valeriusbuurt-West is a quiet, leafy pocket of Amsterdam Zuid, with wide streets and pre-war architecture. It is a residential area with a mix of families and professionals; the average household size is 2.0, and about a third of households have children. The neighbourhood has a strong urban feel, address density is 7,720 per km², yet it is not frantic. There are no resident reviews available for this area, so the picture comes from the data: mostly owner-occupied homes (45%), a very high proportion of pre-1945 buildings, and a low crime rate.

About Koninginneweg 155-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €700,000 is 51% below the average asking price in the Valeriusbuurt-West (€1,441,096) and well below the median of €1,192,500. However, this apartment is also smaller than average, 57 m² versus 116 m². On a per-square-metre basis, the price of €12,281 is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €13,021 per m². So the price is in line with the market when you account for size.
The energy label is E. This is less efficient than most homes for sale in the neighbourhood, about 73% of listings have label A or B. An E label means higher energy costs for heating and electricity compared to a modern home, but it is not unusual for a building from 1903. You can expect to pay more for gas and electricity than in a better-insulated property.
