High-end duplex apartment with rooftop terrace near the Jordaan
Key Features
Description
This duplex apartment is situated on Westerdoksdijk on the Westerdokseiland in Amsterdam, directly bordering the popular Jordaan district and practically next to Amsterdam Central Station. The property was built in 2008 as part of the modern apartment complex Hollandia within the VOC Cour development. The apartment spans two living levels and offers a living area of approximately 75 square meters, with a gross floor area of around 90 square meters.
The apartment is accessible via a lift, which provides convenient access to the fourth floor where the entrance is located. Upon entering, there is a hallway with a practical storage closet. This level also contains the first bedroom, which can serve multiple purposes including use as a guest room, home office, or regular sleeping quarters. The flexibility of this space allows future owners to adapt the layout according to their personal needs.
An internal staircase connects the entrance level to the third floor, which houses the main living areas. The living floor immediately impresses with its sense of space and natural light. The spacious dining kitchen is modern and luxuriously finished, featuring a Bulthaup kitchen design equipped with Smeg appliances. The kitchen opens directly onto the large rooftop terrace measuring approximately 40 square meters, creating a seamless indoor outdoor living experience. This terrace offers a quiet and sunny outdoor space that is exceptional for an apartment in the city center of Amsterdam.
The living room benefits from large windows on two sides, ensuring abundant natural light throughout the day. From the living room, there is access to both a balcony of approximately 5 square meters and the aforementioned rooftop terrace. The combination of multiple outdoor spaces and the open light entry contributes to a pleasant living experience.
At the rear of the apartment lies the main bedroom, which provides ample closet space. The bathroom is fully equipped and neatly finished, featuring a bathtub, toilet, and washbasin. Under the staircase, a practical workspace has been created, which serves well as a home office setup. Additionally, there is a separate internal storage room that also houses the laundry facilities and technical installations.
Residents also have access to a communal rooftop terrace on the seventh floor, which offers an impressive panoramic view over the IJ riverbank and Amsterdam Central Station.
The property holds an A++ energy label, indicating excellent energy efficiency. The apartment features HR glazing and full insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas fired combination boiler that was installed in 2025. The building is equipped with mechanical ventilation.
The apartment is part of a large and professionally managed homeowners association (VVE) for the Hollandia flat building within the VOC Cour complex. The VVE is described as financially healthy with sufficient cash reserves and a well maintained maintenance program. The monthly VVE contribution amounts to 190 euros.
The ground lease (erfpacht) has been perpetually bought off by the seller in 2024, meaning the new owner will not have to pay periodic ground lease fees.
Parking is available on a paid basis in the surrounding area. The current owner has a garage space in the underground garage, which can be acquired separately for an additional price of 60,000 euros. Bicycle storage is available in the basement garage.
An interesting detail mentioned in the listing is that the VVE previously granted permission to construct an extension on the current rooftop terrace. The current owner did not execute this plan, but a prospective buyer could potentially initiate this process to expand the apartment's living area.
The location is described as excellent, offering quiet waterfront living while being literally around the corner from the vibrant Jordaan neighborhood. The immediate vicinity provides a wide range of restaurants, shops, and amenities. The property is highly accessible by public transport due to its proximity to Central Station, and road connections are also favorable.
With a listed price of 665,000 euros (costs to be paid by the buyer), this property is priced at approximately 8,867 euros per square meter of living space. The apartment is available for immediate occupancy.
