About Weteringschans 145B, Amsterdam
The asking price is 63% above the neighbourhood average of €915,000, but the apartment is also 26% larger than the typical 88 m² in Den Texbuurt. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €935,357, so this listing is on the high side. The monumental character and canal-belt location likely justify a premium, but it's a significant step above the local median of €857,500.
The home has energy label C, which is average for a 19th-century building. In the neighbourhood, 25% of homes have label A, 18.8% label B, and 18.8% label C, while 37.5% are D or lower. Label C means reasonable efficiency, but heating costs will be higher than in a modern home. The monumental status may limit renovation options.
The nearest train station is 3 km away, which is a ten-minute cycle or a short tram ride. The area is well served by trams and buses, but for intercity trains you'd head to Amsterdam Centraal or Amsterdam Zuid.
The closest primary school is IKC De Kleine Reus at 203 metres (a five-minute walk). For secondary education, Barlaeus Gymnasium is 378 metres away and Montessori Lyceum Amsterdam is 634 metres. Both are within easy walking distance.
Currently there are 12 homes for sale in the neighbourhood, with prices ranging from €550,000 to €1,595,000. The average price per m² is €10,630, so this apartment at roughly €13,468 per m² is above the local average.
The neighbourhood recorded 162 total crimes in the latest data. Given the high population density and central location, this is typical for an inner-city area. The area is generally considered safe, with a strong police presence on the main streets.
