The asking price is 27% above the neighbourhood average of €702,500, and it's the most expensive of the ten apartments currently for sale on Java-eiland. However, with 126 m² it's also 37% larger than the average 92 m², so the price per m² (€7,102) is actually below the neighbourhood average of €7,844. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value the extra space.

Java-eiland is a quiet, car-free island with a village atmosphere. One resident calls it "a beautiful and safe neighbourhood, with many young families. There are many amenities nearby." The area has a mix of singles and families, and the architecture is modern. It's part of the Oostelijk Havengebied, known for its waterside living.

Jumbo is about 473 metres away, just a five-minute walk. Dirk is about 733 metres, and there's a SPAR express at 825 metres. For a larger selection, Albert Heijn is about 1.1 km away.

There are several primary schools within walking distance: Piet Hein (689 m), Openbare Basisschool IJplein (742 m), Taalschool Innoord (957 m), and Alan Turingschool (981 m). For secondary education, Metropolis Lyceum is about 1 km away.

The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect moderate energy bills, though not as low as with an A or A+ label. In the neighbourhood, 53% of homes have label A and 18% have A+, so this is slightly below the local average.

The nearest train station is 2.2 km away, about a 25-minute walk or a short bike ride. From there you can reach Amsterdam Centraal in a few minutes.

The nearest park or public garden is 1.2 km away, about a 15-minute walk. Java-eiland itself has green courtyards and waterside paths, but for a larger park you'd head to the Oosterpark or Flevopark.
