Key Features
Description
This apartment is situated on the third floor of a building located at Vasco da Gamastraat 24 in Amsterdam-West, specifically in the Columbusplein area. The property was originally constructed in 1929 but has recently undergone a comprehensive high-quality renovation completed in 2026, making it ready for its first occupants following the refurbishment.
The living area measures approximately 37 square meters according to the NEN2580 measurement standard. Despite the modest footprint, the apartment has been efficiently designed as a two-room layout comprising one bedroom in addition to the living space. The ceiling height reaches approximately 245 centimeters, and the interior features exposed beams that add character to the space.
A notable feature of this apartment is the roof terrace located at the rear of the property. This outdoor space measures approximately 15 square meters and is accessible through a glass sliding door that can be opened fully. The terrace provides additional living space for outdoor relaxation.
The renovation work carried out in 2026 encompassed all major aspects of the property. The kitchen has been fitted with built-in appliances from AEG and features a composite worktop. The bathroom includes a walk-in shower and large-format tiles. Throughout the entire apartment, PVC herringbone flooring has been installed over an insulated subfloor with underfloor heating beneath. The property also benefits from an air conditioning unit for climate control during warmer months.
The building envelope has received significant attention regarding insulation. The floor, roof, and both the front and rear facades have been insulated to a high standard. As a result of these improvements, the apartment has achieved an energy label A rating. A new central heating boiler has been installed, which is gas-fired and owned rather than rented. The electrical installation and distribution board have been replaced, as have all plumbing and drainage systems.
The foundation of the building has been classified as code II, indicating it has been inspected and found to be in acceptable condition.

The monthly service charge for this particular apartment is approximately 125 euros.
The property is held on municipal ground lease. The current lease period runs until 15 August 2053, with an annual ground rent of approximately 374.84 euros. Prospective buyers should note that this lease period has a finite end date and may require attention regarding extension or conversion to perpetual ground lease in the future.
