About Legmeerstraat 34-1, Amsterdam
The asking price of €535,000 is 28% below the neighbourhood average of €745,647, which makes it one of the more affordable options in the Legmeerpleinbuurt.

The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood, only 14% of homes in the Legmeerpleinbuurt have a label D or lower. This means the home is less energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a home with a better label. The building dates from 1931, so insulation and glazing may be original or outdated. It is worth factoring in potential upgrade costs.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk or a short cycle. This gives you direct access to the wider Amsterdam area and beyond. The neighbourhood itself is very well connected by tram and bus, with several stops within a few minutes' walk.
