About Mr. G. Groen van Prinstererlaan 137, Amstelveen
The asking price of €385,000 is 41% below the neighbourhood average of €654,542, and also below the median of €520,000. However, the floor area of 66 m² is 41% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 111 m². So the price per m² works out at about €5,833, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €5,756 per m². Overall, it's priced keenly for a compact apartment in a central location.
The energy label is E. This is below the current average for homes in the neighbourhood, where about 42% have labels A or B. An E label means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills compared to a more modern property. It may be worth looking into insulation improvements over time.
The nearest train station is 5.2 km away. That's about a 15-minute bike ride or a short bus journey. The neighbourhood itself is well served by trams and buses, but for direct train connections you'll need to travel to Amstelveen's outskirts or into Amsterdam.
Stadshart has a mix of households: about 30% are families with children, and 46% are single-person households. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and a secondary school about 800 m away. The area is very urban with plenty of shops and restaurants, so it suits families who enjoy a lively, central setting.
Currently there are 48 apartments for sale in Stadshart, with prices ranging from €365,000 to €3,350,000.

The listing does not state a service charge. For an apartment in a building with shared areas, there is usually a monthly contribution to the homeowners' association (VvE). You would need to check the property documents or ask the agent for the exact amount.
The listing does not mention a balcony, terrace or garden.
