About Rooseveltlaan 120-1, Amsterdam
Yes, it's in line with the market. The average asking price in Scheldebuurt-Midden is €794,259, and the median is €750,000. Similar apartments that sold recently went for an average of €862,666, so this one is priced competitively without being over the top.
The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably efficient. You can expect moderate energy costs, though not as low as a modern A-label. Given the 1930s construction, a B label is quite good, it suggests the home has been well-insulated and likely has double glazing.
The nearest train station is 1.3 km away, which is about a 15-minute walk. That's convenient for commuting to Amsterdam Centraal or other cities, though you'll likely use the tram or bike for shorter trips.
