Geuzenhofbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Korte Geuzenstraat sits in a lively part of Amsterdam-West, with a calm street feel and the city's energy just around the corner. At 66 m² it is a good size for a two-person home, and the asking price of €750,000 is on the high side compared to the neighbourhood average, partly because the home is larger than most in the area.

About Korte Geuzenstraat 98, Amsterdam
The asking price is 62% above the average asking price in the Geuzenhofbuurt (€463,000). However, this apartment is also 32% larger than the neighbourhood average of 50 m². The price per square metre works out at about €11,364, which is above the neighbourhood average of €9,314 per m². So the price is on the high side, partly because of the larger floor area.
The energy label is E. That means the home is not very energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a home with a better label. In the Geuzenhofbuurt, all current for-sale homes have label C, so this apartment scores below the local average in terms of energy performance.
The nearest train station is 3.8 km away. That is a bit far for a quick walk, but it is a manageable cycle or bus ride. The neighbourhood itself is well served by trams and buses.
The Geuzenhofbuurt is very urban, with a high density of shops, restaurants and services. A supermarket is on your doorstep, and several primary schools are within a five-minute walk. The area has a young population, with many singles and few children, so it feels lively but not overly family-oriented.
At the time of writing, there are only 5 apartments for sale in the Geuzenhofbuurt. That is a small number, so choice is limited. The average time to sell a home here is 31 days, which suggests that properties do not stay on the market very long.
The apartment was built in 1942, so it is a pre-war property. In the Geuzenhofbuurt, all current for-sale homes were built before 1945. Pre-war buildings often have high ceilings and solid construction, but may need more maintenance than newer homes.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony or terrace. Given that the property is an apartment in a pre-war building, it is unlikely to have a private garden, but you would need to check the listing for any balcony or roof terrace.
