About Meer En Vaart 324, Amsterdam
The asking price of €199,000 is the lowest among the 73 homes currently for sale in the Osdorpplein e.o. neighbourhood. It's 60% below the neighbourhood average asking price of €499,685, but the studio is also much smaller than average at 18 m². Given the size and location, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact entry-level home in this part of Amsterdam.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1964). A C label means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier. You can expect moderate energy bills, though exact costs depend on usage. In the neighbourhood, about 11% of homes have label C, while the majority have A or better.
The nearest train station is 3.7 km away. That's about a 45-minute walk or a short bus ride. The area is well served by trams and buses, so you can reach Amsterdam city centre in about 20-30 minutes by public transport.
The neighbourhood has a total of 522 reported crimes, which is moderate for a densely populated urban area. It's a lively, multicultural neighbourhood with a mix of residents.
At 18 m², the studio is compact and best suited for a single person. It includes a combined living/sleeping area, a kitchen, and a bathroom. For a couple, the space would be very tight, with limited storage and privacy. It's more of a starter home or a city pied-à-terre.
The exact monthly costs depend on your mortgage rate and service charges. For a studio in a flat, you typically pay a service charge (VvE) for maintenance of common areas. Energy costs will depend on usage, but with label C, they should be moderate. It's best to budget for around €150-€250 per month for utilities and service charges, but this varies.
In the Osdorpplein e.o. neighbourhood, sold homes took an average of 47 days to sell. That's a bit slower than the Amsterdam average, suggesting a balanced market. For a studio at a low price, it might attract interest quickly, but there's no guarantee.
