About Prinseneiland 1, Amsterdam
The asking price is 62% above the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€1,294,625). However, this is a detached house on a large plot (206 m²), which is rare in Amsterdam. The average price per m² in the area is €10,745, so for 85 m² that would be around €913,325, but the plot size and property type push the value higher. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the outdoor space and the unique location.
