Charming City Apartment with Spacious Rooftop Terrace in Weesp Centre

This attractive two room apartment is situated in the heart of the historic centre of Weesp. The property is located at Achteromstraat 3 and offers a living experience that combines the charm of a historic building with modern comfort. Behind the authentic facade of this 1913 building, a surprisingly light and comfortable home awaits, complete with an exceptionally spacious rooftop terrace measuring 32 square metres.

The apartment has a total living area of 38 square metres, complemented by 2 square metres of additional indoor space and the aforementioned 32 square metres of building bound outdoor space. The volume of the apartment is 126 cubic metres. Despite the modest living area, the property feels spacious due to the clever layout and the abundance of natural light that enters through the French doors leading to the terrace.

The entrance to the apartment is located on the first floor. The building has a shared entrance on the ground floor, which provides access to the storage areas and the staircase leading to the first floor. Upon entering the apartment, one is immediately struck by the light and atmospheric living room. The living area features French doors that open directly onto the generous rooftop terrace, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. This design element ensures that the living room feels bright and airy throughout the day.

The kitchen was installed in 2025 and is therefore brand new. It is equipped with various built in appliances, providing all the necessary convenience for daily cooking. The modern design of the kitchen fits well with the overall fresh and light finish of the apartment.

The property has one bedroom, which also provides access to the rooftop terrace. This practical layout means that both the living area and the sleeping area benefit from the outdoor space. The bedroom offers sufficient space for a comfortable bed and essential furniture.

The bathroom is equipped with a shower, a washbasin, and a toilet. Additionally, there are connections for a washing machine and a dryer, making the bathroom not only a place for personal care but also a practical utility space. This compact but complete arrangement ensures that all daily necessities are catered for within the limited space available.

The finishing of the apartment can be described as well maintained. The floors are covered with laminate, and the overall impression is light and fresh. The property has double glazing and roof insulation, contributing to the energy efficiency and living comfort.

The standout feature of this apartment is undoubtedly the rooftop terrace. Measuring 32 square metres, this is an exceptionally large outdoor space for an apartment of this size. The terrace is located at the rear of the property and offers a surprising amount of peace and privacy, considering its central location. It is a sunny spot where one can enjoy the outdoors in a quiet setting, right in the middle of the bustling centre of Weesp.

The apartment is part of a homeowners association consisting of 9 apartment rights in total. These comprise six residential units, two commercial spaces on the ground floor on Slijkstraat, one storage space on Achteromstraat, and one shared storage area. The buyer has access to a shared storage room, which can be reached via the entrance at Achteromstraat 3.

The monthly homeowners association contribution is 97 euros. This amount is relatively modest. It should be noted that the homeowners association is described as fairly passive, with savings being accumulated solely for the maintenance of the shared roofs. The exterior paintwork has recently been carried out, which is a positive point regarding the maintenance of the building.

In addition to the homeowners association contribution, a separate advance payment of 300 euros per month is required. This amount covers gas, water, electricity, television, internet, maintenance of the central heating installation, and the fire alarm system. This all inclusive arrangement means that the monthly costs for utilities and services are clearly defined and bundled into a single payment.

The property has an energy label B, which indicates a reasonably energy efficient home. The combination of roof insulation and double glazing contributes to this rating. For a building from 1913, this represents a good level of energy performance.

The location of the apartment is exceptional. Weesp centre is a protected townscape, characterised by historic buildings, charming streets, and a lively atmosphere. The immediate vicinity offers a wide range of shops, restaurants, and cafes, all within walking distance. Despite the central location, the apartment itself benefits from a quiet position at the rear, thanks to the rooftop terrace facing away from the street.

Weesp railway station is within walking distance, providing quick and direct connections to Amsterdam Centraal and other destinations. This makes the apartment particularly suitable for people who work in Amsterdam or the surrounding region but prefer to live in a smaller, more characteristic town.

The town of Weesp combines a village like character with urban amenities. The proximity to the river Vecht and various recreational opportunities adds to the quality of life in this area. The location between Amsterdam and the Gooi region makes Weesp a popular residential location.

Parking in the centre of Weesp is regulated through paid parking and parking permits. Prospective buyers should take this into account when considering the purchase.

In summary, this apartment at Achteromstraat 3 in Weesp offers a rare combination of a central location, a surprisingly spacious rooftop terrace, and a well maintained interior. The property is suitable for individuals or couples who appreciate living in a historic town centre with all amenities within easy reach. The asking price is 349,500 euros, which is equivalent to approximately 9,197 euros per square metre of living space. Acceptance of the property is in consultation, allowing for flexibility in the moving date.
