About Minervalaan 23-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €1,650,000 is very close to the neighbourhood average of €1,658,063 and the median of €1,575,000. Given the 155 m² floor area, that works out to about €10,645 per m², which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €10,906 per m². So it's priced in line with the market, not a bargain, but not overpriced either.
The apartment has energy label C. For a 1927 building, that's decent, it means the home has some insulation and double glazing in parts, but it's not as efficient as a modern home. You can expect reasonable energy bills, but they won't be as low as a label A property. About 29% of homes in the neighbourhood have label C, while 47% have D or lower.
The nearest train station is 1.6 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. That gives you direct connections to Amsterdam Centraal and Schiphol, among other destinations.
