Description
Wonderful family home with a fabulous garden and 214 mē of floor space spread over three floors, located in a quiet street close to Van Baerlestraat and Museumplein.
The property has characteristic high ceilings, authentic details, a uniquely spacious semi-basement and is in the perfect location.
LAYOUT
Ground floor:
Private front door with porch, featuring the original marble floor. This leads into a sizeable hall with access to a toilet. The hall then leads into a large, light, divided living room with an authentic ornamental ceiling, sliding doors and a fireplace. Outward opening doors in the dining room at the rear of the house lead into the garden. The modern open-plan kitchen (2016) is next to the dining room and features handle-free cupboards and drawers and a solid grey concrete counter. The appliances include a 5-ring gas hob, combination oven, microwave, dishwasher, Quooker tap, large fridge and a built-in china cabinet.
The garden is neatly laid out with a pleasant terrace, a sunken trampoline and a play area. A very special old mulberry tree stands out against this beautiful green backdrop. Thanks to its length, the abundance of trees and shrubs and the office buildings behind it, the garden forms an oasis of privacy and tranquillity.
First floor:
The landing leads onto all of the rooms. The master bedroom is at the rear of the property and features deep fitted wardrobes with original, decorative doors across its entire width. A second smaller bedroom is next to the master bedroom. This is currently in use as an office. The third good-sized bedroom is at the front, and has a balcony and a beautiful stained-glass fanlight. The fourth room on this floor currently serves as a guest room. The bathroom leads off the landing and was totally renovated in 2020. It now features a spacious walk-in shower, a bath and double basins. There is also a separate toilet on this floor.
Semi-basement:
In 2008, the semi-basement was deepened, and new foundations were laid. At the same time, underfloor heating and double glazing were fitted.
The original character of the property was taken into account when modernising the semi-basement. The ceiling is much higher than in most semi-basements (2.80 metres!) and the original beams are still visible. All of the rooms lead off a central hall. A utility room on the street side is equipped with a sink and numerous storage cupboards. Next to it is another large bedroom with fitted wardrobes across the entire width, the same as in the master bedroom. The bathroom is in the middle and features a walk-in shower, toilet and a basin. The large room on the garden side is currently in use as a multifunctional/playroom. This room also has plenty of fitted cupboards and a door/access to the garden. Another spacious storage room is next to this room.
LOCATION
Despite being just around the corner from Museumplein and Van Baerlestraat, and close to De Pijp neighbourhood, this part of the Museumkwartier is surprisingly quiet. The property is in a peaceful, yet central, location in the Amsterdam Zuid neighbourhood. Renzos Delicatessen, The Seafood Bar and Entrecote et les Dames are all close by. The high-end P.C. Hooftstraat and Cornelis Schuytstraat shopping streets are within walking distance. If you want some exercise or relaxation, Vondelpark is just a few minutes away and you can get to the charming canals in the centre of Amsterdam in next to no time.
All the amenities you could possibly need, such as good schools, public transport (various trams and bus lines), childcare facilities and gyms, are also within walking distance.
