Weteringbuurt, Amsterdam
NeighbourhoodThis studio on Fokke Simonszstraat sits in the lively Weteringbuurt, right in the centre of Amsterdam. At 36 m² it's compact, but the location is hard to beat. The building dates from 1886 and has an energy label G, so heating costs will be high. The asking price of €495,000 is 58% below the neighbourhood average for all homes, but that's partly because this is a small studio, the average home in the area is 113 m². For comparison, studios in Amsterdam vary widely in price.
The Weteringbuurt is a dense, central neighbourhood with a very high address density (9,676 addresses per km²). It's a young area: the largest age group is 25 to 45, and most households are single-person (955 out of 1,570). Only 205 households have children. The neighbourhood has a mix of housing, but 85.7% of homes were built before 1945. There are no resident reviews available for this area.
For your morning bread, Albert Heijn is just around the corner, and Ekoplaza is a couple of streets away. Several other supermarkets are within a five-minute walk. The nearest primary school, IKC De Kleine Reus, is on your doorstep, and the Barlaeus Gymnasium is a ten-minute walk. The municipality Amsterdam offers all the cultural and recreational options you'd expect from the capital.

About Fokke Simonszstraat 27-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is 58% below the average asking price in the Weteringbuurt (€1,189,896), but that average includes much larger homes. The median asking price in the neighbourhood is €737,000. Given that this is a 36 m² studio with label G, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a small, central Amsterdam studio.
Label G is the lowest energy rating, meaning the home is not energy-efficient. You can expect high heating and electricity bills. The building is from 1886 and likely has poor insulation. In the Weteringbuurt, 55.6% of homes have label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area.
