Weesperbuurt, Amsterdam

At 47 m² it's compact but well laid-out, with an energy label D, something to factor in for running costs. The asking price of €395,000 is notably lower than the neighbourhood average, partly because of the size and label. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and condition.

About Manegestraat 2-1, Amsterdam
The asking price is 65% below the average asking price in the Weesperbuurt (€1,118,586), but that average is skewed by much larger and more expensive homes. The median asking price is €725,000, so this apartment is well below that. Given the compact 47 m² size and energy label D, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a smaller, older apartment in this central location.
The energy label is D. In the Weesperbuurt, about 18% of homes have a label D or lower, while the majority (over 60%) have labels A to C. A D label means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating and electricity costs will be higher than in a better-insulated home. You may want to consider potential improvements.
The nearest train station is 2.1 km away. That's about a 25-minute walk or a short tram ride. The area is well served by trams and buses, so you can reach Amsterdam Centraal or other stations easily.
