About Van Speijkstraat 65-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 35% below the neighbourhood average of €693,625, and it's the cheapest of the eight apartments currently for sale in De Wester Quartier. However, the floor area (53 m²) is 44% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 95 m². So the price reflects the compact size, making it a relatively affordable entry into the area.
De Wester Quartier is a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood right by the water. One resident describes it as quiet with many families, close to shops on the Kinkerstraat and plenty of restaurants. It's densely built with pre-war flats, and the urban feel is strong, but the resident's review suggests a calm atmosphere.
There are three supermarkets within a five-minute walk: Aldi at 361 m, SPAR at 377 m, and Albert Heijn at 381 m. For daily groceries, you're well covered.
Several primary schools are within walking distance. The 10e Montessorischool De Meidoorn is just 129 m away, St. Janschool at 164 m, and Basisschool Het Winterkoninkje at 340 m. Secondary schools are about 1.5 km away.
The energy label is D, which is common for a 1925 building. It means the home is moderately efficient, you can expect reasonable heating costs, but it's not as efficient as modern builds. The neighbourhood has no A or B labels; most homes are C or lower.
The nearest train station is 2.8 km away, which is about a 35-minute walk or a short cycle. Public transport connections in Amsterdam are extensive, so you'll have options.
At 53 m², the apartment is compact and more suited to a single person or a couple. The neighbourhood has many families, but the home itself is on the smaller side.
