Elegant ground-floor apartment with south-facing garden in Oud-Zuid
Key Features
Description
This property is situated on the Johannes Verhulststraat in the heart of the sought-after Amsterdam Oud-Zuid district. The apartment occupies a ground-floor position and is spread across two living levels, providing approximately 122 square meters of living space as measured according to the NEN2580 measurement standards. Additionally, there is a separate heated garden studio of 8 square meters that is not included in the main living area calculation.
The building dates back to 1906 and is located within a protected city or village view, which speaks to the historical and architectural significance of the area. The property sits on freehold land, meaning there is no ground lease to consider, which is an important financial consideration for prospective buyers in Amsterdam.
Upon entering the residence on the ground floor, one is welcomed into a spacious open-plan living area where the kitchen, dining room, and living room flow seamlessly together. The modern kitchen is positioned at the front of the property and features a cooking island equipped with high-end Gaggenau built-in appliances. The kitchen also includes a Liebherr wine fridge, catering to those who appreciate fine wine. The central area of this floor provides ample space for a large dining table, making it suitable for entertaining guests.
At the rear of the ground floor lies the bright living room with French doors that open directly onto the garden. This living area can be closed off with elegant sliding doors, allowing residents to create a more intimate and quiet sitting area when desired. The property benefits from large windows and high ceilings throughout, which flood the interior with natural light and create a sense of spaciousness.
The ground floor also accommodates a separate toilet and a modern second bathroom fitted with a walk-in shower and washbasin. The current layout presents the possibility to create an additional bedroom or workspace on this level, which would enhance the functionality of the living area according to individual needs.
An internal staircase connects the ground floor to the basement level. Here, the spacious primary bedroom is located, complete with an adjoining bathroom that features a walk-in shower and washbasin. The smart layout and generous proportions of this level create a comfortable and quiet private floor with ample storage space.
The outdoor space is a notable feature of this property. The garden extends to approximately 71 square meters and faces south, ensuring plenty of sunlight throughout the day. This is described as a rarity in this particular neighborhood. The garden includes a covered area, a terrace, and a charming garden studio measuring approximately 8 square meters. This outdoor structure is equipped with central heating and electricity, making it suitable for use as a home office, art studio, or even guest accommodation.
The property comes with several notable features and fixtures. A Sonos sound system has been installed throughout the residence. There is a gas fireplace for additional warmth and ambiance during colder months. The heating system consists of an Intergas Kombi Kompakt HRE 36/30 A gas-fired combination boiler from 2015, which is owned rather than rented. The property has double glazing and floor insulation, contributing to its C energy label rating. Mechanical and natural ventilation systems are in place.
The location of this apartment is particularly advantageous. It sits on the corner of the Johannes Verhulststraat and Jacob Obrechtstraat, combining the tranquility of a stately residential street with the vibrancy of the nearby Cornelis Schuytstraat. This shopping street is known for its exclusive boutiques, lunch spots, butcher, greengrocer, and bakery. A lively farmers market takes place every Saturday on the Jacob Obrechtplein.
Cultural and recreational amenities are within easy walking distance. The Vondelpark, Museumplein, Van Baerlestraat, and P.C. Hooftstraat with their museums, high-end shops, restaurants, and cafes are all nearby.
