Sassenheimstraat 28-1
Aalsmeerwegbuurt-Oost · 1059 BH Amsterdam
A classic Amsterdam apartment with a lively street scene
This apartment on Sassenheimstraat in the Aalsmeerwegbuurt-Oost neighbourhood of Amsterdam has a warm, lived-in feel that comes with a 1930s building. At 51 m² it was compact but well laid out, and the last known asking price of €425,000 was keen compared to the neighbourhood average of €640,500, partly because the floor area was smaller than the local norm. For context, apartments in Amsterdam vary widely in price and size. This home has not been online since 27 July 2026.
