NeighbourhoodThis 53 m² apartment on the Merlijnstraat sits in the lively Erasmusparkbuurt-West, a stone's throw from the park. With an energy label B and a price of €425,000, it's a keen entry into the Amsterdam market, about 20% below the neighbourhood average for apartments in Amsterdam.
One resident, who has lived here for over 15 years, describes it as "always been nice (except for that one idiot living above me, but oh well)". The only downside they mention is the number of homes bought up by landlords and sublet at too high a price. The area is densely urban, with mostly flats and a young population, over half the residents are between 25 and 45. For more on the area, see the neighbourhood Erasmusparkbuurt-West.
