With many low-rise buildings. People know each other and there is a village atmosphere." Based on seven reviews, the neighbourhood scores a 7.1.

Frequently asked questions
About Middenweg 518, Amsterdam
Is €595,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €595,000 is below the average sale price in Betondorp (€576,600 for sold homes) and well under the average listing price of €640,938. Given the 89 m² floor area, the price per m² works out to about €6,685, which is lower than the neighbourhood average of €7,984 per m². So it appears keenly priced.
What does energy label E mean for my bills?
Energy label E is the second-lowest efficiency rating. It means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity costs compared to a home with a better label. The exact costs depend on usage, but it's worth budgeting for higher monthly energy bills.
