The apartment contains two well-sized bedrooms, both of which have access to the rear-facing balcony. This configuration allows for flexibility in how the spaces are used, with one bedroom serving as the main sleeping area and the other functioning as a workspace, guest room, or secondary bedroom. The presence of balconies accessible from the bedrooms adds to the living comfort and provides options for outdoor seating.

One notable feature of the interior is the solid wooden floor that runs throughout the apartment. This flooring contributes to a warm and cohesive appearance in the living spaces.

The Rivierenbuurt is a well-established neighborhood in Amsterdam known for its pleasant atmosphere and wide streets. The area offers a variety of amenities within walking distance, including cafes, restaurants, and shops. The Maasstraat and Scheldestraat, both popular shopping and dining streets, are easily accessible on foot. Public transportation options are readily available, and main roads connecting to other parts of the city and beyond are conveniently close.
Regarding the ground lease situation, the property is situated on municipal land subject to leasehold. The current leasehold period ends on February 16, 2059. The annual ground lease payment is currently set at 1,157 euros, which is fixed for a period of 25 years until 2034. After 2034, the municipality will review and potentially revise the ground lease terms. For the period after 2059, favorable conditions have been secured for perpetual leasehold, with the amount set to increase with inflation. The current amount for this future period is 1,113.08 euros per year.
An interesting feature noted in the deed of division is that the owner of this particular apartment has the right to create a roof terrace. This provides potential for additional outdoor living space in the future, subject to obtaining the necessary permits and completing the construction.
The apartment is part of a homeowners association (VvE) that is registered with the Chamber of Commerce. The association holds annual meetings, has a maintenance plan in place, and has arranged building insurance. The monthly VvE contribution is 150 euros. It is noted that the association does not currently have a periodic contribution system or a reserve fund.
The property is being offered at a price of 445,000 euros, which is payable by the buyer including the associated transaction costs (kosten koper). This translates to approximately 9,468 euros per square meter of living space. The listing indicates that the property is not currently owner-occupied and that age clauses are applicable to the sale.
The notary for the transaction can be chosen by the buyer, with the requirement that the selected notary must be based in Amsterdam. A purchase agreement is only considered finalized once the deed of sale has been signed by both parties involved in the transaction.
