Location
Oud-West is Amsterdam’s culinary hotspot, and from this address you are just minutes away from some of the city’s most beloved destinations. Whether you are looking for your daily coffee, artisanal gelato, or a leisurely stroll, the trendy Miuz Gelato & Coffee on the Overtoom is just around the corner. Craving authentic Italian cuisine? The homemade pasta dishes at Pastai on Jan Pieter Heijestraat are guaranteed to become a favorite. For long summer evenings that begin with a great glass of wine and end with exceptional dining, the hugely popular Gitane feels like an extension of your own living room.

The Vondelpark is quite literally your front garden. Just steps away from your doorstep, Amsterdam’s most iconic park offers the perfect setting for morning runs, summer picnics, or simply enjoying the greenery.

Looking for culture and entertainment? Within minutes you can reach the vibrant Leidseplein, home to theatres, cinemas, cafés, terraces, and renowned music venues such as Paradiso and Melkweg. Walking or cycling through the park in the opposite direction brings you directly to the prestigious Museumplein, where world-class institutions including the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum become part of everyday life.

Accessibility
Like any true Amsterdam resident, you will likely do most things by bicycle. Amsterdam Central Station, the Zuidas business district, the Jordaan, and De Pijp are all within a 10 to 15-minute bike ride.

Public transport connections are excellent. From nearby Overtoom and Eerste Constantijn Huygensstraat, several tram and bus lines (including tram lines 1, 3 and 12) provide quick access to the city centre and major train stations such as Amsterdam Central, Amsterdam Lelylaan and Amsterdam Zuid.

Despite its central location, the apartment is also easily accessible by car. Via the Overtoom (S106), the A10 Ring Road can be reached within approximately five to ten minutes. Schiphol Airport is only around thirty minutes away by public transport or taxi.

In short, this is an exceptionally practical location for dynamic city living.

Layout
The moment you step inside this elegant apartment, you are welcomed by a rare combination of historic charm and contemporary living. Authentic details such as richly decorated archways and classic panel doors create a seamless flow between the various living spaces while preserving a warm and intimate atmosphere.

At the front of the property are two bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom is full of character, with its beautiful bay window serving as the room’s centrepiece. The deep windowsill provides the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee while overlooking the lively Eerste Helmersstraat. Adjacent to the master bedroom is a second bedroom, ideal as a guest room, home office, or nursery.

Through an elegant archway adorned with decorative mouldings and subtle gold accents, you enter the living and dining area. A classic herringbone floor and refined wall detailing create a sophisticated, hotel-chic atmosphere. This is the perfect space for entertaining guests and hosting long dinners. Cleverly integrated built-in storage provides ample space without compromising aesthetics. On sunny days, simply open the French doors to the charming French balcony and let the fresh air flow inside.

A second archway leads into the modern kitchen. Finished with sleek handleless white cabinetry, a contrasting black worktop, and built-in appliances including a gas hob and dishwasher, the kitchen combines style with practicality.

Directly adjacent is the comfortable and efficiently designed bathroom, featuring a walk-in shower, toilet, modern vanity unit, and connections for a washing machine.
