About Vondelstraat 70-1, Amsterdam
The asking price of €799,027 is 50% below the neighbourhood average of €1,603,333 and well under the median of €1,167,500. However, the apartment is also 29% smaller than the average home in the area (86 m² vs 121 m²). Given the location and the fact that similar apartments in the neighbourhood sell for a wide range (€375,000 to €9,000,000), the price seems in line with its size and energy label D.
The energy label is D. In the neighbourhood, 23.5% of homes have label D or lower, while 23.5% have label A and 17.6% have label B. Label D means the home is not particularly energy-efficient, so heating costs are likely to be higher than in a modern home. The property was built in 1878, so it has original features but may need some insulation upgrades.
The floor area is 86 m², which is 29% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 121 m². The exact layout is not provided.
