Vinkenstraat 16

It's love at first sight the moment this house comes into view. From the charming 17th-century façade to the warm, perfectly arranged layout that wraps around you like a blanket as you step inside, you simply feel that this place is special!

This characterful national monument (Rijksmonument) surprises with a well-considered layout in which every square metre is put to optimal use. Spread over four floors, you'll find no fewer than four bedrooms, two bathrooms and an intimate patio, where atmosphere and functionality come together seamlessly. The net living area is approx. 105 m², excluding the storage space on the second floor under the roof ridge (10 m²) and the internal laundry/utility/storage room (6 m²). Authentic details and warm materials give this house a soul.

Set on freehold land in a low-traffic street in the heart of the Jordaan, this is a rare opportunity for anyone who falls for character, history and a home that instantly touches the heart.

Location
The house is located on a quiet street in the heart of the beloved Jordaan, one of Amsterdam's most characterful neighbourhoods.

For relaxation and recreation, the green Westerpark with the cultural Westergas complex is close by. Accessibility is excellent thanks to the proximity of Central Station and various public transport connections. There is ample parking in the area and a permit is usually available quickly.
