Vondelparkbuurt-Oost, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a rare find: a free-standing house on Zandpad, right by the Vondelpark. With 61 m² of living space and a 185 m² plot, it's compact but has its own outdoor space in one of Amsterdam's most desirable corners.

About Zandpad 4, Amsterdam
The asking price is 24% above the neighbourhood average of €1,603,333, but that average includes many smaller apartments. Detached homes are rare here, and the 185 m² plot adds value. Recently sold homes in the area went for an average of €2,127,963, so the price is in line with what buyers have been paying for unique properties.
At 61 m², this home is about half the size of the average home in Vondelparkbuurt-Oost, which is 121 m². However, the plot is 185 m², giving you outdoor space that most apartments lack. The price per square metre (€32,705) is high, reflecting the scarcity of detached houses.
Label F is poor, it means the home is not well insulated and will have high heating costs. In the neighbourhood, 23.5% of homes have label D or lower, so it's not unusual for a pre-war house. You can expect significant energy bills, especially in winter.
