About Johan van Soesdijkstraat 15, Diemen
The asking price of €675,000 is in line with the market for a terraced house of this size and age in Centrum West. The 129 m² floor area and 288 m² plot are generous for the area. Without recent sale prices of comparable homes in the immediate street, it's hard to say if it's a bargain, but it's not overpriced compared to similar listings.
Energy label D means the home is reasonably efficient but not modern. You can expect higher energy bills than a home with label A or B. The house was built in 1948, so it likely has original single glazing or older double glazing, and the heating system may be dated. It's worth budgeting for potential upgrades to improve efficiency.
The plot is 288 m², which includes the house footprint. The back garden is a good size for a terraced house in Diemen, plenty of room for a patio, lawn and maybe a shed. The exact dimensions aren't stated, but it's large enough for outdoor dining and children to play.
Centrum West is popular with families. There are several primary schools within walking distance, including De Octopus just 215 m away. The area has a village feel with shops, parks and a library nearby. The mix of ages and household types creates a lively but safe environment.
Diemen station is 1.4 km away, about a 15-minute walk. From there, trains run to Amsterdam Centraal in around 10 minutes and to other destinations. The bus network also connects the neighbourhood to the wider region.
The listing doesn't mention any specific issues. With a 1948 build, it's worth checking the roof, foundations and electrical wiring. The energy label D suggests some insulation may be lacking. A structural survey is recommended, but the agent hasn't flagged any problems.
