Unique Corner Townhouse with Exceptional Ceiling Heights and Multi-Purpose Living Potential Near Vondelpark

This distinctive townhouse is located on Weissenbruchstraat in the Legmeerpleinbuurt area of Amsterdam, offering an open view toward the Jacob Marisstraat. Built in 1914, the property presents itself as a residence that defies simple categorization, combining generous proportions with a ceiling height on the ground floor that creates an exceptional sense of space and light.

The ground floor immediately impresses with its ceiling height of approximately 4.08 meters. This substantial vertical dimension gives the space an almost gallery-like quality, making it suitable for a wide range of uses. The current configuration allows for flexible interpretation: the space could serve as an atelier, workspace, gallery, or fitness area. During previous renovations, preparatory work was completed to facilitate the future installation of a kitchen on this level, with the necessary plumbing infrastructure already in place. This means that adding a kitchen island, for example, would be relatively straightforward.

An entresol level makes effective use of the vertical space and currently functions as a sleeping area. At the rear of the ground floor, there is a self-contained apartment situated under a glass roof. This separate dwelling unit features its own open kitchen, bathroom, and multiple sleeping possibilities. The layout and design make this section well-suited for accommodating guests, working from home, or even dual occupancy, all without compromising the privacy or functionality of the main residence. The ground floor has historically been used multiple times as a gallery space, a function for which the dimensions, natural light, and layout are particularly well-adapted.

The first floor serves as the main living level and is characterized by its broad layout and inviting atmosphere. Large windows at the front ensure ample natural light, and the living room spans the full width of the property. A characteristic bay window provides an unobstructed view and pleasant light infiltration. The space allows for a generous seating arrangement. Through the original en suite configuration with built-in closet space, the living room connects seamlessly to the dining room at the rear. This transition creates a natural zoning while maintaining an open and cohesive feel across the entire floor.

Adjacent to the dining area is the living kitchen, installed in 2022, which forms the central hub of daily life in the home. The kitchen is spacious and connects well to the dining room. Through French doors, the south-facing terrace of approximately 16 square meters is accessible, functioning as a direct extension of the living space.

Located in the rear section of the first floor is a separate room that can be flexibly used as a workspace, playroom, or guest room. This room also provides access to the terrace through French doors, adding to its versatility.

The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase and features a functional and clear layout. Here there are three bedrooms, including a spacious master bedroom. The rooms are well-proportioned and practical in everyday use. The bathroom is centrally located on this floor and is complemented by a separate toilet room. Additionally, there is an extra room that can be flexibly deployed, for example as a home office or walk-in closet. This layout is highly functional and aligns well with the needs of families, professionals working from home, or anyone requiring ample space.

The property has undergone several notable improvements in recent years. The renovation of the patio to create the living kitchen was completed in 2021. Exterior painting was carried out in 2023 and 2024. A new oak floor was installed on the first floor in 2022, and the terrace flooring was renewed in 2021. The chimney is in good working condition and a new wood-burning stove has been installed. Plumbing and electrical systems on the ground floor were replaced in 2015. Zone heating is present throughout the property, and the ground floor is equipped with a domotics system.

The property includes a deep integrated garage suitable for multiple vehicles, complete with electricity, heating, and running water, as well as full insulation including double glazing and floor insulation.

With a usable floor area of 359.10 square meters according to a NEN-2580 measurement report, a gross floor area of 424.80 square meters, and a volume of 1,612.14 cubic meters, this residence offers substantial living space. The property features eight bedrooms in total, two bathrooms, and three separate toilets across four living levels.

The energy label is rated B, with the report dated May 2025. Insulation includes roof insulation, double glazing, and wall insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by an HR-107 gas-fired combination boiler owned by the property.

The ground rent for the current period has been prepaid through to the end date in April 2053. A timely application has been made to convert to perpetual leasehold under favorable conditions.
