Description
This spacious corner apartment offers a unique combination of tranquility, space, and urban convenience. Located in the popular Park Haagseweg area of Amsterdam, the property is situated on the second floor of the stylish New Orleans apartment complex. The building features a lift and includes a private parking space right at the entrance for residents.

From almost every room, you can enjoy views of the greenery, the water, and mature trees, creating a calm oasis while being just a few minutes by bike from the Vondelpark and Amsterdam Zuid.
The apartment has a generous living area of approximately 129 square meters. It was renovated in 2025, ensuring modern and up-to-date finishes. The living room is the heart of the home, featuring warm wooden floors and a wide sliding door that opens directly onto the sunny south-facing terrace, which is about 11 square meters. The open kitchen, also fully renovated in 2025, is spacious and equipped with various new built-in appliances. Next to the kitchen is a large utility room with connections for a washing machine and dryer, offering ample practical storage space.
The property currently has two spacious bedrooms, both with views of the park. The layout is flexible, allowing for the original third bedroom to be easily reinstated with a simple adjustment. The bathroom is complete, featuring a bathtub, separate shower, vanity unit, and a second toilet. This makes the apartment suitable for families or those who frequently have guests.
The Chet Bakerstraat is located in a quiet, low-traffic residential environment directly adjacent to the park and water. The neighborhood is family-friendly with various schools, childcare locations, and sports facilities such as padel courts and fitness clubs like Trainmore nearby. For daily shopping, the Hoofddorpplein and the Belgiëplein shopping center are within walking distance. The location is also ideal for recreation, with the Vondelpark, Amsterdamse Bos, De Oeverlanden, and the Nieuwe Meer just a short bike ride away.
Accessibility is a key feature of this location. The property is well connected to public transport with tram 2 and bus 18 providing quick access to the city center. Bus 369 offers a direct connection to Schiphol Airport and Station Sloterdijk. Metro station Henk Sneevlietweg is a few minutes walk away, and Station Lelylaan and Station Zuid are also nearby. By car, the location is very convenient, with the A4, A9, and A10 ring roads easily accessible via nearby exits.
Financially, the property has several attractive features. The ground lease has been switched to perpetual leasehold under favorable conditions. The current annual canon is 2,582 euros until November 2040, after which it drops to 806.14 euros per year based on 2020 price levels. This results in significantly lower long-term costs. The apartment is part of the active and well-organized New Orleans homeowners association. Administration is professionally managed, and there is a multi-year maintenance plan in place. The monthly service costs are 405 euros.
In summary, this apartment at Chet Bakerstraat 9 offers a particularly spacious home in a green and peaceful setting, with all the amenities of Amsterdam within easy reach. The combination of the recent renovations, the private parking, the favorable leasehold terms, and the flexible layout makes it a unique opportunity in the Amsterdam housing market.
