About Piet Gijzenbrugstraat 42H, Amsterdam
The asking price of €750,000 is 16% above the neighbourhood average of €645,216. However, this apartment is larger than average (78 m² vs 63 m²), which partly explains the premium. The median price in the area is €575,000, so this is a higher-end listing. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the pre-war character and the specific location.
The energy label is D, which is average for a pre-war building. In the neighbourhood, 60.6% of homes have label C and 21.2% have D or lower, so this home is on the less efficient side. You can expect moderate heating costs, but it's not the most energy-efficient option available.
The neighbourhood is well connected. The nearest tram stop is a few minutes' walk, and the train station is 2.1 km away, about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. Bus lines also serve the area, making it easy to reach other parts of Amsterdam.
There are several schools within walking distance. The Tobiasschool (special primary and secondary) is just 62 m away, and Brede school Fiep Westendorp (primary) is 531 m away. Kindcentrum De Leertuin and Oecumenische basisschool Nautilus are also within a ten-minute walk.
Currently, 37 homes are for sale in Aalsmeerwegbuurt-West, with prices ranging from €350,000 to €1,750,000. The average price per m² is €10,508, so this apartment at €9,615 per m² is slightly below that average, despite the total price being above the neighbourhood average.
The area has a mix of residents, with many singles and couples. Only 250 households have children, so it's not a family-dominated neighbourhood. However, there are good schools nearby and parks like the Vondelpark within walking distance, making it suitable for families who prefer an urban setting.
