About Legmeerdijk 26, Amstelveen
The asking price of €650,000 is in line with the market for a corner house of this size and age in Bovenkerk. The 199 m² plot is generous, and the B energy label means heating costs are moderate. Without comparable sales data for the immediate neighbourhood, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced for the area.
Bovenkerk is a quiet, green part of Amstelveen with a village feel. It's popular with families: 43% of households have children, and the streets are safe (155 crimes in total). There's a good mix of ages, with many residents between 45 and 65. The area is moderately urban (density 1426 addresses per km²), so you have space without being isolated.
The nearest train station is 8.2 km away, so this is not a home for daily commuters by rail. You'd rely on the bus or car for longer journeys. The A9 motorway is within easy reach, but exact distances are not listed.
