There are no resident reviews available for this neighbourhood, but the area is known for its historic buildings, markets and canals. The neighbourhood Nieuwmarkt is a short walk from the city centre.

About Krom Boomssloot 12, Amsterdam
At €1,200,000, this is the most expensive of the six homes currently for sale in Nieuwmarkt. The average asking price in the neighbourhood is €900,000, so this one is 33% above that. However, it's a townhouse with an A energy label, which is rare in an area where 62.5% of homes were built before 1945. Whether it's fair depends on how much you value modern efficiency in a historic setting.
The energy label is A, which is very efficient. In the neighbourhood, 37.5% of homes have label A, while another 37.5% have label D or lower. So this home is well above average in terms of energy performance, meaning lower heating costs and a smaller environmental footprint.
The nearest train station is 1.1 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That's convenient for connections to other parts of Amsterdam and beyond.
There are several primary schools within walking distance. St. Antoniusschool is just 93 m away, De Witte Olifant is 268 m, and de Burght is about 1 km. For secondary education, the nearest school is 2.1 km away.
Currently, there are six homes for sale in the neighbourhood. The prices range from €525,000 to €1,200,000, with a median of €962,500. This home is at the top end of that range.
The CBS data records 207 total crimes in the area, but without a per-capita figure or context, it's hard to judge. Nieuwmarkt is a central, busy area with a mix of residents and tourists, so it's typical for a city centre.
