About Koninginneweg 215-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €850,000 is 43% below the neighbourhood average of €1,502,190, which makes it keenly priced. However, the apartment is also 44% smaller than the average home in the area (65 m² vs 117 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €13,077, which is in line with the neighbourhood average of €12,953 per m². So you're paying a fair rate for the space, but getting a smaller home than typical.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. It means the home has reasonable insulation and heating efficiency, but you can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 42.3% of homes have label A, so this is slightly less efficient than many nearby properties, but still better than the 19.2% with label D or lower.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle. This gives you access to the national rail network, but for daily commuting within Amsterdam, trams and buses are more convenient.

For secondary education, Montessori Lyceum Oostpoort is 236 metres and Het Amsterdams Lyceum is 393 metres. All are well-regarded options.
