About Kometensingel 489, Amsterdam
The asking price of €600,000 is 22% above the neighbourhood average of €490,000. However, this house is 53% larger than the typical home in the area (87 m² vs 57 m²), so the price per square metre is roughly in line with the market. The median sold price in the neighbourhood is €495,000, but those homes are smaller. Given the size and energy label B, the price reflects the extra space.
The energy label is B, which means the home is reasonably energy-efficient. You can expect moderate heating costs compared to older homes with lower labels. The neighbourhood has no homes with label A or A+, and all homes are from before 1945, so label B is better than average for the area.
The living area is 87 m², and the plot is 99 m². That's a generous size for a terraced house in Amsterdam, especially in this neighbourhood where the average home is 57 m². The house was built in 1938, so it has classic proportions and likely high ceilings.
