This distinctive property on Bos en Vaartlaan in Amstelveen combines charming period features with contemporary living comfort. From the moment you enter, it is clear that this is no ordinary home. The beautiful stained-glass windows, solid wooden front door, original detailing and characteristic roof structure give the property a unique appearance. These authentic elements are complemented by a modern open plan kitchen, a spacious bathroom, bright living areas and a surprisingly generous rear garden. The property also offers a great deal of flexibility. At the rear of the plot is a detached outbuilding with its own kitchen, bathroom and sleeping/living level. This creates a variety of interesting possibilities, for example as a home office, studio, guest accommodation or hobby space, subject to the permitted use. GROUND FLOOR: The entrance immediately provides an attractive introduction to the property. The solid wooden front door is flanked on either side by narrow stained-glass windows in red, blue and yellow. The beautiful stained glass is also featured in the inner vestibule door. Together with the underfloor heating, this gives the hallway a warm, almost monumental character. The dark natural stone floor forms an attractive contrast with the light coloured woodwork. The hallway provides access to the various rooms, while the characteristic staircase leads to the upper floors. The combination of stained glass, panelled doors, high ceilings and the wooden stair rail creates a particularly atmospheric entrance. The ground floor features an exceptionally spacious living and dining room with an open connection to the kitchen. At the front is an attractive bay window with windows on all sides, allowing plenty of natural light to enter. The blinds provide privacy while also allowing the amount of daylight to be adjusted as desired. Built in low level cabinets and the radiator cover follow the shape of the bay window and provide practical storage space. The open fireplace occupies a central position in the living room. It creates a natural division between the sitting and dining areas while adding extra warmth and character to the space. The wide wooden flooring continues almost seamlessly throughout the living area, enhancing its calm and spacious feel. At the rear is the modern open plan kitchen. Generously proportioned, the kitchen features a large island with an expansive worktop. The sleek combination of dark cabinetry and stainless steel elements gives the kitchen a contemporary, industrial look. The island provides ample workspace while creating an attractive connection with the dining area. The kitchen offers direct views of and access to the rear garden. Large glazed doors and windows create a strong connection between indoors and outdoors. On warmer days, the doors can be opened to allow the terrace to become a natural extension of the living space. FIRST FLOOR: The first floor comprises three bedrooms. The spacious bedroom at the rear measures approximately 14.5 m² and features a built in wardrobe wall and French doors opening onto the balcony. At the front are two further bedrooms measuring approximately 13.8 m² and 6.2 m². There are also several built in cupboards on this floor. The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, shower, washbasin and toilet and also benefits from underfloor heating. A separate central-heating/storage room is located off the landing. SECOND FLOOR: A fixed staircase leads to the surprisingly spacious second floor, one of the most characterful areas of the property. The wooden beams of the original roof structure have been left prominently exposed. Combined with the sloping rooflines and several skylights that allow plenty of natural light to enter, this creates an impressive and atmospheric space. The floor has an area of approximately 30.6 m² and features a distinctive roof structure. With a ridge height of approximately 3.34 metres and several skylights, the space feels both bright and spacious. A shower and toilet are also located on this floor. The open plan layout offers numerous possibilities, including the creation of an additional bedroom or guest accommodation. Connections for laundry appliances are also available on this floor. GARDEN: The generous garden forms a wonderful extension of the living space and offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy outdoor living. Directly adjoining the house is a spacious terrace with ample room for a generous lounge area and outdoor dining setting. The combination of large terrace tiles and characterful paving gives the garden a well maintained and inviting appearance. Thanks to its generous proportions, several separate seating areas can easily be created, such as a welcoming outdoor dining area, a comfortable lounge area or a pleasant spot in the sun. The green boundary planting provides a sheltered setting and a high degree of privacy. There is also plenty of space for additional planting, a children's play area or further landscaping to suit your own preferences. The garden is conveniently accessible directly from the house and also benefits from rear access. OUTBUILDING: A particularly attractive feature of the property is the detached, characterful outbuilding. Behind its distinctive double doors is a surprisingly complete and multifunctional space. The ground floor comprises a living area, kitchen and bathroom with shower, washbasin and toilet. The outbuilding also has its own private entrance. A wooden staircase leads to the upper floor beneath the characteristic pitched roof. Here you will find a sleeping area with a ridge height of approximately 2.32 metres, complemented by additional attic space. The narrow façade window, high roofline and exposed timber construction give this area a distinctive and inviting character.
