Unique Corner Apartment on Freehold Land in Amsterdam Oud-West
Key Features
Description
The Agency presents this corner apartment of approximately 163 square meters, situated on freehold land in a prime location between the city centre and the Oud-West district of Amsterdam. The property is located at Nassaukade 355-H in the Da Costabuurt-Zuid neighbourhood. This residence has a distinctive character that combines warmth and personality with comfort and privacy. Despite being centrally located in the city, the apartment maintains a notably peaceful atmosphere.
The entrance to the property is accessed via a natural stone staircase leading to the private entrance on the bel-etage level. From the hallway, one enters the spacious living area which features an impressive ceiling height of nearly three meters. The living room offers views over the canal along the Jacob van Lennepkade. The favorable corner position on the canal ensures there is no direct overlooking from neighboring properties, which contributes to a strong sense of privacy. Five characteristic windows provide an abundance of natural daylight throughout the space.
The semi-open kitchen integrates seamlessly with the dining area and is designed in a modern, timeless style. The kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances including a combi steam oven, a luxurious integrated extractor system within the cooktop, and a Quooker Cube five-in-one tap. French doors from the kitchen open onto a balcony. A black steel staircase leads down to the sheltered city garden, which also features a private rear entrance via the Jacob van Lennepkade that is convenient for bicycle storage.
The lower level, or basement, comprises three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a separate practical laundry room. A notable feature of this level is the long hallway fitted with bespoke built-in wardrobes with unique louvred doors, combining aesthetic appeal with functionality.
The master bedroom is situated at the front of the property and includes an en-suite bathroom with a freestanding claw-foot bathtub, a vanity unit, built-in storage, and a spacious walk-in shower. Adjacent to the master bedroom is a second room that would be well suited as a guest bedroom or home office. The third bedroom at the rear of the property is generous in size and offers direct access to the garden.
The second bathroom has been styled with distinctive features including a custom black steel shower enclosure with a rain shower, handcrafted Moroccan zellige tiles, a solid wooden vanity with a concrete washbasin, and a wall-hung toilet.
The entire basement level is finished with underfloor heating and a robust, light-toned concrete-ciré cast floor that provides both comfort and a contemporary aesthetic. The bel-etage level is equipped with extra-thick double glazing for improved insulation.
The building dates from 1888 and was legally split into separate apartments in 2003. The property is situated on freehold land, meaning there is no ground lease to consider. Heating is provided by a gas-fired combi boiler from 2016, which is owned by the property. The energy label is rated C. There is also a fireplace present in the property.
Security features include a modern system by Abco with fingerprint locks and cameras that can be operated remotely.
The location of the property is on the edge of the historic canal belt, on the Oud-West side of the Singelgracht, with the Jordaan district situated just across the water. The neighbourhood offers a wide variety of excellent restaurants, cafes, and specialty shops. Thanks to the central location, both Vondelpark and Amsterdam-South can be reached within minutes by bicycle.
Parking in the area is through paid parking and parking permit systems.
Regarding the property owners association, it is registered with the Chamber of Commerce. There is a maintenance plan in place and building insurance is arranged. According to the listing details, there is no annual general meeting, no periodic contribution, and no reserve fund, which may indicate a very small or informal association given this is a split property with limited shared elements.
The city garden measures approximately 18 square meters and is situated on the west side, accessible via a rear entrance. The total living space is 163 square meters with a volume of 563 cubic meters. The property spans two living levels plus a cellar. The layout includes four rooms in total, of which three are bedrooms.
The handover date is to be determined in consultation between buyer and seller. The property is currently available on the market.
This apartment represents a distinctive residential option in a highly sought-after area of Amsterdam, combining historical architectural elements from the late nineteenth century with modern amenities and finishes. The combination of freehold ownership, the corner position providing privacy, the canal views, and the private garden make this a property with particular characteristics that distinguish it from standard apartment offerings in the area.
