Luxurious Renovated Three-Story Apartment with South-Facing Roof Terrace in the Jordaan
Key Features
Description
Located in the desirable Anjeliersbuurt-Zuid neighborhood within the Jordaan district of Amsterdam, this three-story upper apartment at Tuinstraat 117-1 offers a comprehensively renovated living space spanning 173 square meters. The property is situated on a quiet street while remaining centrally positioned in one of Amsterdam's most sought-after residential areas.
The building dates back to 1933 and falls within a protected cityscape, which speaks to the historical character of the surroundings. Despite its age, the apartment has been fully updated and renovated to contemporary standards, achieving an Energy Label A rating. This high efficiency rating is supported by comprehensive insulation measures including roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation.
Access to the property is via a private entrance on the ground floor, with stairs leading up to the first residential floor. The first floor contains the main living areas and features a spacious hallway with a coat closet and a separate toilet with hand basin. The living room is designed as a through-lounge configuration with windows on both the front and rear facades, creating an exceptionally bright and airy atmosphere. Custom-built wardrobes have been integrated into this space, providing both aesthetic appeal and practical storage.
The kitchen is positioned as an open kitchen-diner and is equipped with a central cooking island. The kitchen installation includes high-quality built-in appliances: a Quooker instant boiling water tap, a wine climate cabinet, a gas cooktop with integrated extraction, two ovens, a dishwasher, a large refrigerator, and a separate freezer. The dining area connects directly to the roof terrace through fully opening concertina doors, allowing the indoor and outdoor spaces to function as a continuous area during favorable weather.
The south-facing roof terrace measures 45 square meters with dimensions of 7.30 meters in depth and 6.15 meters in width. This outdoor space receives direct sunlight throughout the day due to its southern orientation. In addition to the roof terrace, there is a balcony on the second floor, also facing south.
The second floor accommodates the sleeping quarters. The landing includes a built-in closet designed to house a washing machine and dryer, along with a separate toilet with hand basin. The master bedroom is positioned at the rear of the property and features a custom walk-in closet. This bedroom has an en-suite bathroom fitted with a bathtub, walk-in shower, and washbasin. French doors from the master bedroom open onto the south-facing balcony. A second well-proportioned bedroom is located at the front of this floor.
The third floor contains three additional bedrooms, bringing the total to five sleeping rooms. A second bathroom on this level is equipped with a bathtub, walk-in shower, double washbasin, and toilet. A loft ladder on the landing provides access to the attic space, which serves as additional storage. The attic has a gross floor area of 29.1 square meters, though the usable area is noted as 7.9 square meters. The central heating boiler, a gas-fired combination unit owned by the property, is installed on this floor.
The total building-bound outdoor space amounts to 57 square meters, comprising the roof terrace and balcony. The property has a volume of 628 cubic meters. Mechanical and natural ventilation systems are present, and air conditioning has been installed. Television cable connections are available.
An important legal and financial consideration is that the property is located on freehold land (Eigen grond), meaning there is no ground lease (erfpacht) to pay. The VvE checklist indicates that no homeowners association is registered, which is consistent with the property being an entire upper house rather than a divided apartment within a larger complex.
The surrounding area offers a comprehensive range of amenities. The Westerstraat, with its variety of shops and supermarkets, is nearby. Multiple weekly markets operate in the vicinity, including the Lindengracht, Noordermarkt, and Westerstraat markets. Restaurants, cafes, and terraces are plentiful in the immediate neighborhood. A children's playground is located around the corner from the property.
Transport connections are well established. The property is accessible by car via the A10 ring road using exits S100 and S114. Public transport options include the Marnixplein stop, served by bus line 88 and tram line 5. Amsterdam Central Station can be reached by bicycle in approximately nine minutes.
Parking in the area operates on a paid parking system with permit availability. The asking price is stated as 1,995,000 euros, with the transaction costs (kosten koper) to be borne by the buyer. This translates to approximately 11,532 euros per square meter of living space.
The property is offered with acceptance terms to be negotiated. All stated dimensions and surface areas are indicative, and prospective buyers are advised to conduct their own investigations and engage a qualified real estate agent to guide them through the purchase process.
