Character, charm, light and spectacular waterfront views Character, charm, natural light and spectacular views over the water: this is one of those Amsterdam apartments that captures your heart the moment you walk in. This beautiful and atmospheric four-room apartment of approximately 86 m² is situated at the end of Baarsjesweg, in a wonderful location directly on the Kostverlorenvaart, close to Vondelpark and overlooking the Autopon building and the Overtoomse Sluis. The property combines the character of a classic Amsterdam home with contemporary living comfort. Features include panelled doors, Bakelite light switches, an en-suite room separated by glass-stained sliding doors, two fireplaces and a beautiful oak floor. The apartment is located in the middle of a distinctive standalone apartment block, built in the 1930s in the Amsterdam School architectural style. Originally, this small block formed the corner with Surinamestraat. The building was designed by architect J. Roodenburgh, whose most famous work was the former Ajax stadium De Meer. Characteristic of Roodenburgh's work are the parabolic-shaped entrance portals, which can also be found in this building. A truly distinctive piece of Amsterdam architecture. And then there is the view. From the living room, you have an unobstructed and expansive view across the Kostverlorenvaart. Boats pass by while the ever-changing scenery on the water provides a view that never gets boring. By Amsterdam standards, the sightlines are exceptionally far-reaching — almost from the Pontsteiger on the IJ all the way to the Nieuwe Meer. Truly unique. Sustainability and comfort have also been taken into consideration. In 2013, ten solar panels were installed. In 2019, the property was completely disconnected from the gas network and equipped with infrared heating panels, and the electrical meter cupboard was renewed. In 2021, the front window frames were completely replaced. At the rear, the property features a sunny west-facing balcony, perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. On the fourth floor, you will also find a spacious, insulated private storage room equipped with heating, a window and electricity. This space is ideally suited as a quiet home office, hobby room or studio. In short: a characterful and sustainable municipal monument, centrally located, with unique waterfront views and additional space upstairs — a combination that rarely comes onto the market. LOCATION The property is located on Baarsjesweg, directly on the Kostverlorenvaart and on the border between Amsterdam-West and Amsterdam-Zuid. Here, you can enjoy a peaceful setting by the water while being within easy reach of almost everything that makes Amsterdam so appealing. Vondelpark, visible from the apartment, is ideal for walking, running, exercising or simply enjoying the greenery. Rembrandtpark is also just a stone's throw away. The lively Hoofddorpplein area, Overtoom, Kinkerstraat and De Hallen are all nearby. For coffee, lunch or drinks, there is no need to leave the neighbourhood. Bar Kosta is located across the water, while numerous cafés and restaurants can be found around Baarsjesweg, Postjesweg and Overtoom. The Foodhallen in De Hallen are also easily accessible on foot or by bicycle. Via Vondelpark, you can quickly reach Leidseplein, Museumplein and the Concertgebouw for concerts, museums and other cultural activities. Daily shopping is equally convenient, with a Jumbo supermarket located around the corner. The surrounding shopping streets also offer a wide range of speciality shops and other amenities. ACCESSIBILITY The property is excellently connected. By bicycle, Vondelpark, Leidseplein, the Jordaan and Amsterdam city centre are all easily accessible, as are Lelylaan, Amsterdam Zuid and Sloterdijk railway stations. Public transport is also excellent. Several tram and bus connections can be found nearby, including tram lines 7 and 17, providing easy access to various parts of the city. Surinameplein, located nearby, also offers convenient connections to other parts of Amsterdam. By car, the A10 ring road can be reached via Surinameplein in approximately two minutes. Parking is available in the public streets. Paid parking applies except on Sundays and public holidays. Residents can apply for a parking permit through the Municipality of Amsterdam. ENERGY EFFICIENCY The property has been completely gas-free since 2019. The individual rooms are heated using infrared panels, allowing the temperature to be controlled separately in each room. In addition, the roof has been equipped with ten solar panels since 2013. STREET REDEVELOPMENT The quay wall was recently restored and the gas pipes in the street were replaced. The next phase will involve a redesign of the street, creating more space for pedestrians and cyclists. The trees that were temporarily removed will be replanted. LAYOUT Ground floor: Communal entrance and well-maintained staircase leading to the apartment on the second floor. Second floor: Hallway with separate toilet; atmospheric en-suite room spanning the full width of the apartment.
