Lastage, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on Nieuwe Jonkerstraat sits in the lively Lastage neighbourhood, part of the historic centre. Built in 1884, it has an E energy label, so heating costs will be something to factor in. At €890,000, the price is above the neighbourhood average of €823,154, but that reflects the larger-than-average floor area of 97 m². For context, the average price per m² in Lastage is €8,598, and this home works out at around €9,175 per m², on the high side, but not out of step with the market for apartments in Amsterdam.
Lastage is one of Amsterdam's oldest neighbourhoods, with a dense urban feel (over 6,700 addresses per km²). Despite the city-centre location, residents describe it as quiet and friendly.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood generally looks green, quiet and pleasant. Neighbourly contact is generally very good, but there are also some canal-belt types who walk around with their nose in the air and can't even manage a greeting. But that shouldn't spoil the fun.

About Nieuwe Jonkerstraat 24, Amsterdam
The asking price of €890,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €823,154 and the median of €719,000. However, this apartment is 97 m², while the average in Lastage is 101 m², so the price per m² (about €9,175) is slightly higher than the neighbourhood average of €8,598. Given the historic character and central location, the price is on the high side but in line with similar properties.
The energy label is E, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Lastage, 30% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a 19th-century building.
