Modern, bright and well-waid-out four-room apartment of 56m² (GFA 64m²) with two full-width balconies, one south-facing. This bright and serene four-room apartment offers a well-thought-out layout, featuring a spacious living room with an adjacent dining room, two good-sized bedrooms, and a modern kitchen. The apartment has a warm ambiance, enhanced by a parquet floor and smooth plastered walls and ceilings. The leasehold has been bought off until 15-10-2056, after which the ground rent is fixed under favorable conditions.
Located in the vibrant De Baarsjes neighborhood, the property is just a stone’s throw from both the lively Kinkerbuurt and the Hugo de Grootbuurt, with the Jordaan just beyond.
The homeowners’ association, named “Vereniging van Eigenaars Jan van Galenstraat 43 to 53 (odd numbers) and Geuzenkade 86 to 91 (continuous) in Amsterdam”, is professionally managed. Monthly service charges are €159.38, and a multi-year maintenance plan (MJOP) is in place. Major maintenance was carried out in 2022.
Layout
Access is via a secured gate and natural stone staircase leading to the landing where the apartment’s entrance is located. The carpeted stairwell leads to the front door. A spacious hallway with room for a wardrobe provides access to almost all rooms.
At the rear, the bright living room features an en-suite layout. Large windows and French doors offer abundant natural light and lead to the adjacent balcony, which boasts open views and plenty of privacy. The comfortable sitting area includes a charming original mantelpiece, and the adjacent dining room easily accommodates a six-person dining table.
At the front of the building are two bedrooms, with the modern kitchen positioned between them. The kitchen also provides access to a second south-facing balcony — perfect for your morning coffee or an after-work drink. Noteworthy is the width of the street, ensuring privacy and open views from both balconies.
The kitchen is arranged along two sides and features high-gloss white built-in cabinets and drawers with stainless steel handles, paired with a light gray stone countertop. Naturally, the kitchen is equipped with a range of built-in appliances.
The main bedroom, located on the right, offers space for a double bed and includes a stylish sink and a sleek walk-in shower. The second bedroom is currently used as a walk-in closet but is also suitable as a guest room or home office.
In the hallway, you’ll find a separate toilet and a convenient laundry room with space for a washer and dryer.
The entire apartment is finished with a parquet floor, except for the kitchen, which has anthracite floor tiles.
Finally, the apartment includes a separate storage room of over 8m², located on the top floor of the building.
Location & Accessibility
The location is excellent: De Baarsjes is booming and full of life. In recent years, the neighborhood has undergone major redevelopment, resulting in the perfect blend of traditional cafés and shops alongside trendy coffee bars, fashion boutiques, and hip restaurants. Hotspot De Hallen is just a short walk away. These developments have also brought a younger demographic to the area.
Nearby is the well-known Slatuinen Nature Garden, a hidden gem in Amsterdam-West, as well as the Zimmerhoeve city farm and the active community center De Havelaar.
Along De Clercqstraat, you’ll find many trendy restaurants such as Pazzi, Van ’t Spit, and Le French Café along the Kostverlorenvaart canal. All daily amenities are nearby, including supermarkets, primary schools, childcare centers, and gyms. For relaxation, visit Rembrandtpark, Erasmuspark, or the slightly further Vondelpark and Westerpark.
The apartment is easily accessible by both public transport and car (via the S105).
