Willemsparkbuurt-Noord, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a grand semi-detached house on a leafy street in the heart of Amsterdam's Willemsparkbuurt-Noord. With 334 m² of living space and a 376 m² plot, it offers generous proportions that are rare in this part of the city. The 1924 build has an F energy label, so expect high heating costs. At €5,250,000, the price sits 68% above the neighbourhood average of €3,129,815, a reflection of its size and location. For context, semi-detached houses in Amsterdam in this price bracket are scarce.
This is a quiet, well-to-do neighbourhood with wide streets and stately homes. One resident describes it as 'boring', 'Not much to do. Almost no greenery on the street, also gets extremely hot in summer. You never see anyone walking around and rubbish is collected on time. But extremely noisy with construction workers starting at 7 am.' That's based on a single review, so take it as one perspective. The area is densely built (8,335 addresses per km²) and mostly pre-war housing. Many households are singles or couples without children. The neighbourhood Willemsparkbuurt-Noord is known for its proximity to the Vondelpark and the city centre.
For daily groceries, Jumbo is just around the corner, and Albert Heijn is a couple of streets away. There are also Dirk and Ekoplaza within a five-minute walk. For schools, De Kleine Nicolaas (primary) is a couple of streets away, and Het Amsterdams Lyceum (secondary) is a five-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers excellent amenities, with restaurants and a GP within a few minutes' walk. The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, a ten-minute cycle.
At the time of writing, the home is listed via Von Poll Real Estate and also appears on Pararius. The asking price is €5,250,000.

About Sophialaan 14, Amsterdam
The asking price is 68% above the neighbourhood average of €3,129,815, but this home is also 79% larger than the average (334 m² vs 187 m²). The price per m² works out to about €15,719, which is slightly below the neighbourhood average of €16,348 per m². So while the total is high, the per-square-metre cost is in line with the market.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In the neighbourhood, only 16.7% of homes have a label D or lower, so this home is less efficient than most. You can expect high heating costs. The home was built in 1924, and the label reflects its age.
The neighbourhood has 205 households with children out of 625 total households, so about a third. There are several primary and secondary schools within walking distance, including De Kleine Nicolaas (252 m) and Het Amsterdams Lyceum (423 m). The area is quiet but one resident notes it can be noisy from construction work starting early.
Jumbo is just 104 m away, and Albert Heijn is 264 m. A GP is 0.4 km, a restaurant is 0.2 km, and a park is 0.4 km. The neighbourhood is very urban with a high density of addresses, so most daily needs are within a few minutes' walk.
In the neighbourhood, sold homes took an average of 38 days to sell. Currently there are 27 homes for sale in the area, with prices ranging from €475,000 to €6,980,000. This home is at the higher end, so it may take longer to find the right buyer.
The nearest train station is 2.4 km away, which is about a ten-minute cycle or a 30-minute walk.
The plot is 376 m², but the listing does not explicitly mention a garden. The home is a semi-detached house, so outdoor space is likely, but it is not confirmed in the data.
