About Van Ostadestraat 385-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €475,000 is 26% below the neighbourhood average of €638,318, which makes it look keen. However, the apartment is also smaller than average (49 m² vs 67 m²) and has an energy label D, while most homes in the area have better labels. Given that homes here sell in about 20 days on average, the price seems competitive.
The energy label is D. This means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with label A or B. In the neighbourhood, only 5.1% of homes have label A+ and 35.9% have label A, so this home is below average in efficiency.
The neighbourhood recorded 161 total crimes, which is moderate for such a dense urban area. Resident reviews are mixed: one says it's "safe" and "central", while another mentions "poverty" and "chaotic" at times. It's a typical big-city neighbourhood with both ups and downs.
The nearest train station is 1.8 km away, about a 20-minute walk.
The nearest park or public garden is 0.5 km away, a five-minute walk. The neighbourhood itself has "little greenery" according to one resident, but the nearby park offers some outdoor space.
Homes in the Willibrordusbuurt sell on average in 20 days, which indicates a fast-moving market. This apartment's price is below average, so it may attract interest quickly.
