Charming Upper House with 3 Bedrooms and Sunny 22m² Rooftop Terrace
Key Features
Description
This charming upper house is situated on the Valeriusstraat in the Valeriusbuurt-West neighborhood of Amsterdam Oud-Zuid. The property is located on the third and fourth floors of a building originally constructed in 1913. The asking price is set at 1.150.000 euros, with the transaction costs to be paid by the buyer.
The living area measures 110.78 square meters according to NEN2580 standards, with a gross living area of 147.78 square meters. The building-related outdoor space consists of a rooftop terrace measuring 22.35 square meters. The total volume of the property is 341 cubic meters. The property features three bedrooms across two living floors, one full bathroom, and one separate toilet.
Access to the property begins at a shared entrance at street level. Residents then proceed to their own private entrance on the third floor. This arrangement is typical for apartment buildings of this era in Amsterdam, where the ground floor and upper floors often have separate entrances.
The third floor contains the main living areas. Upon entering through the private entrance, one arrives in a hallway that provides access to the living room. The living room features an en-suite layout with characteristic doors that can separate the space into two distinct areas. The room contains stained glass elements and built-in storage cabinets along the walls. Natural light enters through the windows at the front of the property. The ceilings are notably high, which is characteristic of buildings from this period and contributes to the spacious feeling of the interior. Decorative ornaments are present, adding to the historical character of the space.
At the rear of the third floor is the open kitchen. This kitchen is described as spacious and is equipped with various Siemens appliances. These include a refrigerator, a freezer, a wine climate cabinet for proper wine storage, a five-burner gas stove, and two ovens, one of which is a steam oven. The kitchen has patio doors that open to allow natural light and ventilation. The open layout connects the kitchen directly to the living area, creating a continuous living space.
Also located on the third floor is a room at the front of the property that can serve as a bedroom or a home office, depending on the needs of the residents. The hallway on this floor contains a separate toilet that includes a sink or fountain.
An internal staircase connects the third floor to the fourth floor. The fourth floor houses two additional bedrooms. Both of these bedrooms are described as generously sized and are equipped with air conditioning systems, which provides comfort during warmer months. One of these bedrooms is designated as the master bedroom and has direct access to the rooftop terrace.
The bathroom on the fourth floor is modern and includes several fixtures. There is a bathtub, a walk-in shower, a double vanity with a storage cabinet, and a toilet. This configuration allows for multiple people to use the bathroom space simultaneously.
The rooftop terrace is a notable feature of this property. It measures approximately 22 square meters and faces south, which means it receives sunlight throughout much of the day when weather permits. The terrace is accessible both from the master bedroom and from the hallway on the fourth floor. Adjacent to the terrace access point in the hallway, there is additional storage space and a cabinet housing the washing machine.
The property is situated on freehold land, meaning there is no ground lease arrangement. This is a significant consideration in Amsterdam, where many properties are subject to ground lease, as it eliminates ongoing lease payments and provides full ownership of the land beneath the building.
The homeowners association, known in Dutch as VvE, consists of three apartment units within the building. This small scale means the association is manageable and residents have direct input into decisions. The owners manage the association themselves rather than hiring external management. The building is described as being in a well-maintained condition. Monthly service charges amount to 210 euros. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund, and has building insurance in place. However, there is no formal maintenance plan documented.
Regarding energy efficiency, the property has an F energy label. The insulation consists of partial double glazing, indicating that some windows have been updated while others retain single glazing. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired combination boiler, specifically a Nefit ProLine HRC30/CWS installed in 2011. The property has mechanical ventilation as well as natural ventilation options.
The roof is flat and covered with bituminous roofing material.
The Valeriusstraat is described as one of the most sought-after streets in the Amsterdam Oud-Zuid district. The neighborhood is characterized by a combination of tranquility and elegance. Despite the peaceful residential character, the vibrant aspects of city life are within walking distance.
Nearby amenities on the corner of Emmastraat include an Albert Heijn supermarket, a wine shop called Nan, a store called Carter, and various restaurants. The Cornelis Schuytstraat, a well-known shopping street, is in the immediate vicinity. The Vondelpark and Museumplein, two of Amsterdam's most prominent public spaces, are both within walking distance, offering recreational opportunities and cultural institutions.
Transportation connections are described as excellent. Multiple tram and bus lines serve the area. Amsterdam Zuid station is a short distance away, providing train connections. A direct connection to Schiphol Airport is available, with travel time of approximately seven minutes. The A10 ring road is nearby, allowing access to other parts of the Randstad region.
Parking in the area is through paid public parking and requires permits.
The property is available, with the delivery date to be determined through consultation between buyer and seller.
