Charming historic split-level ground floor apartment with private garden in the Jordaan

This charming split-level ground floor apartment is situated on Nieuwe Leliestraat in the heart of the beloved Jordaan neighbourhood of Amsterdam. Built circa 1725 to 1750, the building is a listed Rijksmonument, offering not only historical character but also potential subsidy opportunities for its next owner. The property is located on eigen grond, which means freehold ownership of the land, a significant advantage in the Amsterdam property market.

The apartment offers approximately 77 square metres of living space plus an additional 35 square metre private garden, providing a rare and sought-after indoor-outdoor living arrangement in the city centre. The layout is thoughtfully designed across split levels, maximising the use of space and creating distinct living zones.

Entering through the entrance hall, you arrive in the spacious and light filled kitchen. The ceiling height here is an impressive 3.85 metres, enhancing the sense of space and airiness. The kitchen is fully equipped with custom-made cabinetry extending to the ceiling, offering ample storage solutions. The cabinet fronts are finished in bamboo, adding warmth and natural character to the space. Built-in appliances include a SMEG four-burner cooktop, dishwasher, combination microwave oven, conventional oven, and refrigerator-freezer.

From the kitchen, a staircase leads up to the sleeping level, where you find the generously sized bedroom. The bedroom is quietly positioned at the rear of the building and features a large built-in wardrobe providing substantial storage for clothing. A sliding door allows the bedroom to be separated from the rest of the living area, offering flexibility and privacy. The bedroom provides direct access to the bathroom.

The modern bathroom is equipped with a walk-in shower, a vanity sink with cabinet, and a heated towel rail, combining practicality with comfort.

Descending from the kitchen level takes you to the living room, a bright and inviting space. A handcrafted built-in bookcase runs along one wall, adding character and providing elegant storage for books and personal items. The living room provides direct access to the private rear garden, which measures approximately 6.15 metres deep and 5.76 metres wide, totalling 35 square metres. The garden faces north and includes a practical wooden storage shed with electrical connection, ideal for bicycles or garden equipment.

Also located on this lower level is a separate toilet with a small handbasin and a concealed alcove housing connections for a washing machine and dryer.

Throughout the apartment, robust oak wooden flooring has been installed, adding warmth and cohesion to the interior.

The building's exterior features include the richly decorated Halsgevel, a characteristic Dutch stepped gable typical of historic canal houses. The facade bears the poetic inscription 'De TarweAkker' and both the front and rear facades were professionally repainted in 2023, contributing to the well-maintained appearance of the property.

The apartment is part of an active and well-managed Vereniging van Eigenaren, with monthly service charges of 150 euros. The VvE maintains proper registration with the Chamber of Commerce, holds regular annual meetings, maintains a reserve fund, has a structured maintenance plan in place, and carries building insurance. The foundation was renewed in 1978, and the risk assessment conducted by KCAF has classified the foundation risk as low, with an A, B, or C rating.

Heating and hot water are provided by a owned ATAG combination gas boiler installed in 2017. The windows are wooden frames with single glazing, which is typical for a monument property.

The location is exceptional, placing residents in the vibrant Jordaan neighbourhood while maintaining access to all urban conveniences. The street is quiet yet centrally located, within walking distance of the Westertoren, Anne Frank House, Tulip Museum, Cheese Museum, and the organic Noordermarkt, which operates on Saturdays. The area is characterised by charming local cafes, inviting terraces, and diverse dining options along the Prinsengracht, Westerstraat, and the popular Negen Straatjes shopping district. Daily amenities including a GP, pharmacy, dentist, hairdresser, shoemaker, and drogist are all nearby. The Marqt organic supermarket and well-known supermarket chains are easily accessible.

Cultural offerings are abundant, with museums, theatres, cinemas, and galleries within close proximity. The Royal Palace on Dam Square, yoga studios, sports clubs, and wellness facilities are all within walking distance.

Public transport connections are excellent, with multiple bus and tram lines serving the area and Amsterdam Central Station located nearby. Parking is available on public roads through paid parking or a residential parking permit, with additional parking available at the Singelgrachtgarage.

The asking price is 795,000 euros excluding transfer tax, which equates to approximately 10,325 euros per square metre of living space. The property is available by mutual agreement regarding handover date.
