About Saxenburgerstraat 2A2, Amsterdam
The asking price of €1,000,000 is 25% above the neighbourhood average of €796,821. However, this apartment is also 71% larger than the average home in the area (123 m² vs 72 m²), so the price per square metre is roughly in line with the local market. The median price in the neighbourhood is €661,200, but that includes smaller properties.
The energy label is D. This is a mid-range rating, the home is not particularly efficient, but it is not the worst either. In the neighbourhood, about 32% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for a pre-war apartment. You can expect moderate heating costs.
The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, which is about a 25-minute walk or a short cycle ride.
The neighbourhood has a young population, but only 200 households with children out of 1,237 homes. Most households are singles or couples without children. There are several primary schools within walking distance, and the Vondelpark offers plenty of green space for children to play.
The floor area of 123 m² suggests it could have multiple bedrooms, but the exact layout is not provided by the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. The plot size is not given, so it is not possible to say whether there is any private outdoor space.
In the past year, sold homes in the neighbourhood took an average of 30 days to sell. That is relatively quick, indicating a healthy demand for properties in this area.
