Frequently asked questions
About Laurierstraat 77A, Amsterdam
Is €1,050,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €905,436, but the apartment is also smaller than average (72 m² vs 101 m²). The price per square metre works out to about €14,583, which is high compared to the neighbourhood average of €9,511/m². However, the energy label A is a strong asset, and the Jordaan location commands a premium.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means low heating costs and a modern standard of insulation, unusual for a 1907 building. In the neighbourhood, only 29.2% of homes have label A, so this is a clear advantage.
How is the neighbourhood for daily life?
Residents describe it as cosy and familiar, with many shops and eateries. There are several supermarkets within a five-minute walk, including Albert Heijn and Ekoplaza. The area is very urban, with a high density of addresses, but also has parks within a ten-minute walk.
What schools are nearby?
The 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan (primary) is about 218 m away, and Basisschool Dr. Rijk Kramer is 481 m away. For secondary education, the Jordaan College is just 158 m away. All are within a short walk.
How far is the train station?
The nearest train station is 2.6 km away, which is about a 30-minute walk or a short tram ride. The area is well served by trams and buses.
Is the neighbourhood safe?
Residents feel safe. One says "little to no trouble with crime," and another mentions feeling "quite safe there, despite the crowds." The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 421, but this is for the whole area.
