A 1927 apartment in Amsterdam's Orteliusbuurt-Noord
This apartment on Orteliusstraat 228-1 sits in the Orteliusbuurt-Noord neighbourhood of Amsterdam, a corner of the city where the streets are lined with pre-war housing. The home was built in 1927, and the listing does not state the energy label, so that information is missing. With a living area of 49 square metres according to the BAG registration, the asking price of €395,000 works out at €8,061 per square metre. That price is keen, sitting 18% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €479,500, and it is the cheapest of the 10 homes currently for sale in this area. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price depending on location and condition.
The home itself
The listing gives no details about the layout, number of rooms, or any outdoor space, so the only concrete facts are the year of construction and the living area. The apartment dates from 1927, which is typical for this part of Amsterdam, and the BAG registration puts the living space at 49 square metres. Without further information from the agent, there is little more to say about the interior or any installations.

The foundation risk indication is medium, based on the fact that the building dates from before 1970, and the entire postcode area falls within a KCAF attention zone. For climate, the pluvial flooding risk is elevated, while the current and 2050 flood risk are both low; heat stress is medium now and in 2050.
