About Sarphatistraat 85K, Amsterdam
The asking price of €575,000 is 54% below the average asking price in Sarphatistrook (€1,250,833). However, the apartment is also smaller than average: 56 m² versus 116 m². The price per square metre works out at about €10,268, which is below the neighbourhood average of €18,369/m². So it's priced keenly for its size, but the absolute price is relatively low for the area.
The energy label is C. This is an official registration from EP-Online. Label C is in the middle of the scale, it's not the most efficient, but it's not the least either. In the neighbourhood, 47% of homes have label C, so it's typical for the area. Expect moderate energy costs, but the label alone doesn't tell you about the condition of the insulation or heating system.
The nearest train station is 1.9 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. Given the central location, most of the city is easily accessible by bike or on foot.
