About Prinsengracht 683A, Amsterdam
The asking price is 57% below the neighbourhood average of €1,348,000, and also well below the median of €1,085,000. Given the 126 m² size, that works out to about €4,563 per m², while the neighbourhood average per m² is €9,958. So it is priced keenly, though the F energy label and 1715 construction year mean you should factor in higher energy costs.

An AH to go is just 99 metres away, so you can grab essentials on your doorstep. A full Albert Heijn is 327 metres away (a five-minute walk), and a SPAR and Jumbo are within 500 metres. In total, there are 151 supermarkets within 5 km.

The energy label is F, which is inefficient. This means the home will have high heating costs, especially given the 1715 construction year. In the neighbourhood, 40% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but you should budget for significant energy bills.
