A bright new-build above the city noise
This upper-floor apartment sits in Elzenhagen-Zuid, a young pocket of Amsterdam-Noord where the streets are quiet and the skyline is still growing. It is a new-build home, so everything is fresh and untouched, and the energy label A+++ means it is an efficient label with low expected energy costs. The asking price of €590,000 is keen compared with the neighbourhood average asking price of €727,273, and it sits well below the average for apartments in Amsterdam.
The home itself
This is a four-room upper-floor apartment on the second living floor, with a single floor of living space and a volume of 297 cubic metres. The agent lists the living area at 99 square metres, while the BAG registration records 98 square metres, so the two sources differ slightly. There is a parking space included, which is a practical bonus in this part of the city. As a new build, the home comes with modern installations and finishes throughout.
Life in Elzenhagen-Zuid
Elzenhagen-Zuid is a compact neighbourhood of about 1,830 residents, and it is a place that has clearly been shaped in recent years. Most homes here were built after 2010, and the streets are lined with new apartment blocks and green spaces. Residents across the municipality of Amsterdam give their living environment an average score of 7.38, based on 258 reviews. One resident says: "Lots of amenities around, parks, shopping areas, bars, daycares etc." Another describes it as "calm, safe and green", noting that it has "changed a lot in the past years, offering now more options for entertainment and horeca". A third resident mentions the greenery and the trees that "provide cooling and relaxation", though they also point out that the rubbish containers are a daily eyesore. These are municipal-level impressions, so they reflect the wider city rather than this specific street.
Amenities and transport
The daily routine here is well served. The Jumbo and Lidl are a couple of streets away, and the AH to go is just around the corner for a quick top-up. For school runs, Kindercampus Mokum and abbs Elzenhagen are both a five-minute walk, and secondary school Bredero is even closer. The pharmacy is a five-minute walk, and the BovenIJ hospital is just beyond that. Public transport is strong: bus stop G.J. Scheurleerweg with lines 34, 39 and 245 is on your doorstep, and metro station Noord with line 52 is a five-minute walk. Amsterdam Centraal station is about three kilometres away, and the municipality of Amsterdam is well connected by road and rail. The address-level risk data from public sources gives an indication for the area rather than an inspection of this specific home. Road traffic noise is measured at 52 dB Lden, which is above the Dutch noise standard, while aircraft noise at 47 dB Lden stays below the standard. The foundation risk indication is low, though the soil is peat, which is sensitive to settlement. For climate, the indication for pluvial flooding at heavy rain is medium, as is the flood risk now and in 2050, while heat stress is currently low but rises to medium by 2050.

What is the energy label and what does it mean?
