A classic Amsterdam apartment with a keen price
This third-floor apartment on the Overtoom sits in the Vondelparkbuurt-West neighbourhood, a stone's throw from the Vondelpark and the lively heart of Amsterdam. Built in 1933, it has the classic pre-war character you expect in this part of the city. The asking price of €675,000 is keen compared with the neighbourhood average asking price of €799,524, which makes it stand out in a market where apartments in Amsterdam typically go for more.

The apartment spans one floor and offers three rooms, including two bedrooms and one bathroom. The living area is listed at 88 m² by the agent, while the BAG registration records 81 m². The volume comes to 325 m³. It is located on the third floor, so you get the light and views that come with a higher floor in a classic Amsterdam building.
