Vaalrivierstraat 3B

The asking price of €465,000 is close to the neighbourhood median of €450,000 and below the average of €519,586. At roughly €9,688 per m², it's slightly above the neighbourhood average of €9,282 per m², but given the energy label B and the central location, it's priced in line with the market.

The apartment has an energy label B, which is good for a building from 1931. It means the home is reasonably energy-efficient, so you can expect moderate heating costs. In the neighbourhood, only 13.3% of homes have label A or better, so this is above average.

The nearest train station is 1.0 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. This makes it convenient for commuting to other parts of Amsterdam or further afield.

Based on three reviews, opinions vary. One resident who has lived there for 79 years loves it, while another reports social issues. The average score is 6.88 out of 10. The area has a mix of ages, with many singles (1,315 one-person households) and a significant number of residents aged 25-45.

There are several supermarkets within a five-minute walk, including Albert Heijn (327 m), Vomar (426 m) and Lidl (490 m). Primary schools like Integraal Kindcentrum De Kaap (241 m) and IBS De Vijgenboom (300 m) are close, as is Cygnus Gymnasium (458 m) for secondary education.

The neighbourhood recorded 187 total crimes in the latest data, but without a per-capita figure it's hard to compare. One review mentions social tensions, but another long-term resident feels safe. It's a dense urban area, so typical city precautions apply.

Homes in the neighbourhood that sold recently took an average of 36 days to sell. This suggests a reasonably active market, though not exceptionally fast.

At 48 m² with one bedroom (not stated but typical for this size), it's compact but fine for a couple or a single person.
