Felix Meritisbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis apartment on the Singel sits in one of Amsterdam's most iconic stretches. The listing does not state an energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home's energy performance. At €950,000, the asking price is 54% below the neighbourhood average of €2,047,568, though the 86 m² floor area is 49% smaller than the typical 168 m². That makes the price per square metre competitive for the area. For context, the average price per m² in the neighbourhood is €13,167. This is one of the apartments in Amsterdam currently for sale.
Felix Meritisbuurt is the elegant wedge of the Grachtengordel-West, wrapped around the Singel and Keizersgracht. It's a neighbourhood of narrow streets, monumental façades and a lively mix of residents.

Your morning starts with a short walk to Albert Heijn on the corner (just around the corner) or Jumbo a couple of streets away. For fresh bread, there are several bakeries within a five-minute walk. The nearest primary school, 14e Montessorischool De Jordaan, is a five-minute walk, and the Jordaan College for secondary special education is also close by. The Vondelpark is a ten-minute walk away, and the central station is about 2 km, a pleasant 20-minute stroll along the canals. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the amenities you'd expect from a capital city.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Keizerskroon Makelaars and also appears on Funda. The agent has not published an energy label, so the listing is incomplete on that point.
