Very good · 2 residents
My husband and I have lived on the Amstel for 26 years; we came from the Noorderdwarsstraat near the Prinsengracht. We are very satisfied here. Living here is very cosy, very kind neighbours, helpful, now a bit less due to age. Extremely nice living, very dear people around us and we have good contact with them, and if my husband and I can help someone, I do that too, someone who lost his wife. Good contact with the neighbours, a small word can do people good. The building is and has been well maintained, is kept clean, etc., nothing but praise for the building and the handymen on the Prinsengracht... corner Prinsengracht, we have lived here for about 30 years now. And we are satisfied people and hope to be allowed to stay here for a long time. Fam Fakkeldij, Amstel 298 G

About Utrechtsedwarsstraat 101-3, Amsterdam
At €495,000, this is the cheapest of the 11 apartments currently for sale in Utrechtsebuurt-Zuid and 63% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €1,330,273. However, the floor area of 58 m² is 37% smaller than the buurt average of 92 m², and the energy label is E. Compared to the average price per m² of €14,912 in the area, this home is priced keenly, but the lower square footage and older energy label mean you get less space and potentially higher energy bills.
