About Singel 356B, Amsterdam
The asking price is 17% above the neighbourhood average of €2,047,568. However, the apartment is 105 m², which is 38% smaller than the average of 168 m² in the Felix Meritsbuurt. Given the prime canal location and historic building, the price is on the high side compared to the local market.
In the neighbourhood, 40.6% of homes have a label D or lower, and only 15.6% have A or A+. Without the label, it is not possible to assess the energy efficiency of this specific apartment.
The nearest train station is 2.0 km away. That is about a 25-minute walk or a short tram ride.
The Felix Meritsbuurt is a historic, densely built canal district with mostly pre-war buildings. It has a high proportion of singles and few families. The area is very urban with many restaurants and shops nearby. Crime figures show 466 total offences, but no further breakdown is available.
With 105 m², it could have two or three bedrooms, but this is not confirmed. You would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given the apartment is on the Singel and built in 1740, it is unlikely to have a private garden, but a balcony or roof terrace cannot be ruled out without further details.
The agent has not provided the energy label in the listing. This is not uncommon for older buildings, but it means the buyer would need to request the label or arrange an assessment themselves.
