Key Features
Description
Located in one of Amsterdam's most sought after neighborhoods, this well maintained and move in ready apartment is situated at Pienemanstraat 34 in the Cornelis Troostbuurt area of De Pijp. The property offers approximately 76 square meters of living space, complemented by a 6 square meter balcony and 3 square meters of external storage on the attic floor. With two bedrooms, a modern kitchen, a fully equipped bathroom, and an energy label A rating, this apartment combines comfort, quality, and efficiency in a prime urban location.
The apartment is positioned on the second floor of a building constructed in 1922. Thanks to its corner orientation, the property benefits from an exceptional amount of natural daylight and a pleasant sun exposure throughout the day. Large windows create a bright and spacious atmosphere across the entire living area, which is a rare characteristic for properties in De Pijp. The flexible layout allows for easy adaptation to personal preferences. Rooms can be combined to create a more generous living space, or the existing configuration can be maintained as is.
The kitchen is spacious and modern, fitted with various built in appliances and ample storage. A large built in cabinet provides space and connections for a washing machine and dryer. From the kitchen, residents can access the recently renovated balcony, which has been fully updated with a new coating and fresh paintwork. The balcony offers a pleasant outdoor space for relaxation.
The bathroom is centrally located within the apartment. While compact in size, it is completely equipped with a shower, a washbasin unit, and a towel radiator. The apartment also features a separate toilet. There is one bathroom and one separate toilet in total.
Both bedrooms are generously proportioned, providing comfortable sleeping quarters with plenty of room for furnishings. The overall layout consists of three rooms in total, with two designated as bedrooms.
The property has been carefully maintained and upgraded over the years. It is fully fitted with HR++ double glazing. The rear side was recently fitted with new HR++ glass, while the front side received HR++ glass approximately eight years ago. Window frames have been recently painted. A new high efficiency Intergas central heating boiler has been installed, including an updated flue gas discharge channel and chimney section. The boiler is gas fired and is listed as a combi boiler dated 2026, and it is owned by the property owner.
Additional features include the availability of fiber optic cable and TV cable connections. Extra materials such as skirting boards, flooring panels, and toilet tiles are present in the attic storage space. The staircase in the building is spacious and comfortable, without steep steps, making access to the apartment convenient.
The location is one of the strongest attributes of this property. De Pijp is widely known for its vibrant atmosphere, diverse hospitality venues, boutique shops, and cultural offerings. The famous Albert Cuyp Market is within walking distance, offering a wide variety of fresh produce, goods, and local specialties. Despite being in the middle of bustling city life, the apartment itself is situated on a surprisingly quiet street close to water and green spaces. Residents even have the option to moor a small boat nearby.
Accessibility is excellent from this address. The North/South metro line is approximately a five minute walk away, providing quick and efficient connections to other parts of Amsterdam. Schiphol Airport can be reached within 15 to 20 minutes. Tram and train connections are also close by. The A10 motorway is easily accessible without the inconvenience of navigating through canals or one way streets. A parking permit is available for residents. At the end of the street, there is a playground, adding to the family friendly character of the neighborhood.
The property is part of a healthy and active homeowners association, known as the VvE. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund, has a maintenance plan in place, and carries building insurance. The monthly service charges amount to 225 euros. Major maintenance work at the rear of the building has already been completed and paid for. Maintenance for the front facade is scheduled for 2027 to 2028.
In terms of tenure, the property is situated on municipal land subject to leasehold. The leasehold has been bought off until 30 September 2054, which provides long term financial security for the owner.
The building is classified as an existing construction upper floor apartment with a flat roof. The property holds a partial furnished status and is designated as a monument. The total volume of the apartment is approximately 238 cubic meters.
The asking price for this property is 675,000 euros, to be paid by the buyer. This translates to approximately 8,882 euros per square meter of living area. Delivery of the property is subject to mutual agreement.
This apartment offers a rare combination of features for De Pijp: a corner position with abundant natural light, a quiet yet central location, modern updates including an energy label A rating, and a turn key condition that allows for immediate occupancy. Prospective buyers are encouraged to schedule a viewing to fully appreciate the qualities of this property.
