LOCATION
The apartment is situated in a highly desirable location in Oud-West, on the lively Overtoom, with all amenities within easy reach.
There is plenty of culture nearby! Vondelpark and Museumplein—home to the Rijksmuseum, Concertgebouw, Van Gogh Museum, and Stedelijk Museum—are all within walking distance.
For daily groceries, you can visit Albert Heijn, Jumbo, and various specialty shops such as a butcher, greengrocer, and liquor store.
Accessibility is excellent. There is a tram stop right outside, and tram 1 takes you to Leidseplein or NS station Lelylaan in under 5 minutes. Surinameplein is a 500-meter walk, and you can reach the A10 ring road within minutes.
Amsterdam Central Station is also easily accessible by bike.
There is ample parking in the area, regulated by a permit system with a waiting time of approximately 10 months.
In short: an ideal and central location in vibrant Oud-West, Amsterdam!
LAYOUT
You enter the property through your own private front door. Once the door closes, it’s completely quiet—a true urban oasis! Through the vestibule, you reach the hallway, with the (first) bedroom on the left.
This bedroom is located at the front and can truly be called a primary suite. Thanks to triple glazing, you won’t hear anything from outside, and the silent mechanical ventilation keeps the air fresh at all times. The bedroom itself is already spacious, but the open bathroom makes it feel even larger.
The bathroom features a freestanding oval Corian bathtub and a large walk-in rain shower. The sink is also made of Corian and includes a full-width mirrored cabinet.
There are four very spacious custom-made wardrobes made of oiled teak wood—plenty of room for all your clothes. Beautiful to look at and highly practical, with shelves, drawers, hanging rails, and lighting.
Between the bedroom and living room, narrow glass panels have been elegantly installed to emphasize the sense of space and height, and to create a visual connection between the rooms.
Adjacent to the hallway is a large wardrobe with space for a washing machine and dryer, as well as ample storage. There is also a separate toilet with a Corian sink.
When you enter the living room, you truly appreciate the ceiling height. This FANTASTIC space is a feast for the eyes and exudes a very special atmosphere. The combination of colors, the industrial cast floor, columns, the enormous bookcase, and the designer kitchen is truly unique. The view through to the second (bed)room and the garden is simply stunning.
The semi-professional kitchen is a dream for any cooking enthusiast. It consists of a wall unit with built-in appliances such as an American-style fridge, dishwasher, oven, and separate microwave. There is plenty of storage space, and the kitchen island is enormous—perfect for cooking while facing the living room and entertaining guests.
The island is generously sized, with gas burners seamlessly integrated into the countertop, so there is no traditional stove visible. The sink is equipped with a Quooker tap and built-in soap dispenser.
The right-hand wall features a wall-to-wall bookcase, a true eye-catcher. Opposite this is the dining area, overlooking the garden.
The cozy sitting area is a great place to watch TV, though it could easily be arranged elsewhere as well. Here too, there is a strong connection to the outdoors.
The adjacent room is multifunctional and currently used as an open guest/work room. A glass wall enhances the sense of space, but with a simple adjustment, it can be turned into a fully separate bedroom.
An impressive full-width glass folding sliding door has been installed, which can be completely opened to seamlessly connect the interior with the exterior.
And then the garden! Exceptionally deep by Amsterdam standards, featuring a large, low-maintenance terrace directly off the living room. At the back of the garden is a plunge pool finished with antique Portuguese tiles and a fountain—perfect for cooling off on hot summer days.
The garden is low-maintenance, fully matured, and equipped with an automatic drip irrigation system.
The garden house is currently used as a home gym and is heated with an infrared element. With relatively simple adjustments, this could become a fully insulated additional space, significantly increasing the apartment’s usable area.
Thanks to its northwest orientation, the garden enjoys sun from around noon until 7:00 PM from May through September.
The entire apartment features a stylish cast floor with partial underfloor heating, giving it an industrial look. All walls and ceilings are smoothly plastered, and the electrical system and central heating have been modernized.
The homeowners’ association (VvE) consists of 5 members and is financially healthy. Monthly service charges are €150, and the roof covering was renewed in 2025. A major plus is that the building’s foundation was renewed around 2005.
The property is on freehold land—no leasehold!
In short: a dream loft-style apartment with a fantastic garden in a wonderful location next to Vondelpark.
