Marco Polostraat 48-1

The asking price of €400,000 is 28% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€554,590) and also below the median of €525,000. Given the 52 m² floor area and A energy label, this is a keen price for a well-insulated home in Amsterdam. However, the market here is active, 53 homes sold in the recent period with an average selling price of €486,208, so it may attract interest.
