About Pieter Cornelisz. Hooftstraat 174, Amsterdam
The asking price is 15% above the neighbourhood average of €2,770,679, but this is a new-build (2016) with an A energy label, which is rare in an area where 89% of homes were built before 1945. The average price per m² in the Concertgebouwbuurt is €15,826, so at €21,768 per m² this apartment commands a premium. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value modern efficiency in a classic location.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. This means heating costs will be relatively low compared to older homes in the neighbourhood, where 14% have labels D or lower. The apartment was built in 2016, so it meets modern insulation and ventilation standards.
The nearest train station is 2.5 km away. That's about a 30-minute walk or a short tram ride.
