Transvaalkade 130-1
Transvaalbuurt-West, Amsterdam
AreaA 1928 apartment on the Transvaalkade
This apartment sits on the Transvaalkade in the Transvaalbuurt-West neighbourhood of Amsterdam, a part of the city with a distinctly urban feel. The building dates from 1928, so it carries the character of its era. The listing does not state the energy label, which means you cannot judge running costs from the listing alone. At 61 square metres of living space according to the BAG registration, the asking price of 498,000 euros works out at 8,164 euros per square metre. That is on the high side compared with the average of 8,873 euros per square metre for apartments in Amsterdam, though the average home in the neighbourhood sells for around 509,967 euros.
What the listing tells us
The agent offers this apartment without specifying its layout, so the number of rooms and bedrooms is not stated. What is clear is the year of construction, 1928, and the living area of 61 square metres. Because the listing is sparse, there is little more to say about the interior from the available information.

Amsterdam Amstel train station is a five-minute walk. All of this sits within the municipality of Amsterdam. The address does carry some area-level indications from public risk data. Road traffic noise is measured at 56 dB Lden, above the noise standard, while railway noise at 52 dB Lden and aircraft noise at 43 dB Lden stay below their standards. The foundation risk indication is medium, because the building dates from before 1970 and the entire postcode area falls within a KCAF attention zone. For climate, pluvial flooding risk is low, flood risk is low now and in 2050, and heat stress is medium now and in 2050. These are indications at area level, not an inspection of this specific home.

Frequently asked questions
About Transvaalkade 130-1, Amsterdam
What is the asking price for this apartment?
The asking price is 498,000 euros. With a living area of 61 square metres according to the BAG registration, that comes to 8,164 euros per square metre. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is 509,967 euros, so this home sits below that average, though the price per square metre is above the neighbourhood average of 8,873 euros.
What is the energy label of this apartment?
The agent has not published this field, so you cannot determine the energy efficiency or expected energy costs from the listing alone. The neighbourhood does have a mix of labels, with 5.4 percent at A+ and 29.7 percent at D or lower, but that does not tell you the label of this specific home.
What is the WOZ value of this apartment?
The municipal valuation, which is set on a reference date, is not published here, so there is no figure to compare with the asking price. Without this information, the listing gives no indication of how the asking price relates to the official valuation.
What is the foundation risk for this address?
The foundation risk indication for this address is medium. This is an area-level indication based on public data, not an inspection of this specific home. The building dates from 1928, before 1970, and the entire postcode area falls within a KCAF attention zone where all properties were built before 1970. This points to a potential concern, but it is not a diagnosis of this particular property.
How noisy is the location?
The address has road traffic noise measured at 56 dB Lden, which is above the noise standard. Railway noise is 52 dB Lden and aircraft noise is 43 dB Lden, both below their respective standards. These are area-level indications from public data, so they describe the general sound environment rather than the specific acoustic situation inside this apartment.

How do residents rate the neighbourhood?
Residents give the Transvaalbuurt-West neighbourhood an average score of 6.88, based on three reviews. One long-time resident speaks warmly of living here for 79 years, while another describes social tensions with neighbours. The reviews are mixed, so the neighbourhood experience appears to vary considerably between individuals.
Why are there no property details in this listing?
The agent has not published the energy label for this apartment. The listing does not state the number of rooms, bedrooms, or bathrooms, nor any details about the layout or installations. The address itself is complete, so the location and neighbourhood information is accurate, but the property details are limited to the year of construction and the living area.
