About Marco Polostraat 255-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is €425,000 for 45 m², which works out at about €9,444 per m². That is above the neighbourhood average of €8,276 per m² for sold homes, and the median sold price in the area is €480,000 for larger properties. So the price is on the high side for the size, though the market here is active with 15 sales recently.
Energy label G is the lowest rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating bills compared to a modern home. The neighbourhood has mostly older properties, but most other homes for sale here have better labels.
The nearest train station is 3.1 km away, so it is not within walking distance. You would need a bike, bus or car to reach it.
