INTRODUCTION Spacious duplex ground-floor apartment on Derde Kostverlorenkade in Amsterdam Oud-West, offering approximately 112 sq.m. of living space in the main residence, a deep private rear garden, two balconies and a separate garden house of approximately 11 sq.m. The garden house is classified as living space in the official NEN 2580 measurement report and is currently used as the fourth bedroom. It also has its own bathroom and sanitary facilities. The main residence offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous multifunctional room of approximately 19 sq.m. The result is a flexible home suitable for families, working from home and accommodating guests. The building dates from 1913, has energy label B and is located close to Vondelpark, Overtoom and Kinkerstraat. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The property is arranged over the ground and first floors and was created by combining two former self-contained residential units. The Municipality of Amsterdam granted permission for this merger in 2012. The ground floor forms the main living level. The living room of approximately 31.5 sq.m. and open kitchen of approximately 9.5 sq.m. together create a spacious living area with a ceiling height of approximately 2.75 metres. Large windows at the front and French doors opening onto the garden provide natural light and a direct connection with the outdoor space. The main residence contains three bedrooms. The first floor also includes a room of approximately 19 sq.m. which can be used as a second living room, home office, playroom or additional sleeping area. A detached garden house of approximately 11 sq.m. is situated at the rear of the garden. Its construction, insulation and facilities mean that the space is included as living area in the NEN 2580 measurement report. It is currently used as the fourth bedroom and has its own bathroom and sanitary facilities. The apartment-right documentation formally describes the outbuilding as a storage room. The main residence further includes two bathrooms, separate toilets on both floors and two balconies. A new central heating boiler was installed in August 2024 and the property is fitted with double glazing. LAYOUT The property has its own entrance directly from street level. The ground floor opens into the main living area. At the front is the living room of approximately 31.5 sq.m. With a ceiling height of approximately 2.75 metres and large windows, the room offers ample space for a generous seating area and dining table. The open kitchen of approximately 9.5 sq.m. is positioned along the side wall and connects directly with the living room. At the rear, French doors provide access to the garden. This floor also contains a bedroom of approximately 8 sq.m., a bathroom of approximately 3 sq.m. with shower and washbasin, a separate toilet and practical storage space. An internal staircase leads to the first floor. At the front is a bedroom of approximately 14 sq.m. with access to a balcony overlooking the canal. The central room measures approximately 19 sq.m. and can be arranged as a second living room, family room, workspace or playroom. The rear balcony is accessible from this room. At the rear is the third bedroom in the main residence, measuring approximately 9 sq.m. The bathroom on this floor measures approximately 6 sq.m. and includes a bathtub, separate shower and washbasin. A separate toilet is also present. GARDENHOUSE AND FOURTH BEDROOM The deep rear garden extends approximately ten metres from the main residence towards the detached garden house. There is ample space for several seating areas, outdoor dining, planting and play space. At the rear of the garden is a detached garden house of approximately 11 sq.m. with a ceiling height of approximately 2.20 metres. The garden house is designated as storage in the deed of division and no permit has been issued for its use as official residential accommodation. In its current configuration, however, the space has been fully fitted out and is used by the current owner as additional accommodation, particularly for overnight guests. The owner purchased the property with the garden house already in this configuration. It comprises a room of approximately 8 sq.m. and a private bathroom of approximately 3 sq.m. with a shower, washbasin and Sanibroyeur toilet. The garden house is insulated and equipped with heating and electricity, making it a comfortable and highly practical additional space. According to the NEN 2580 measurement report, the approximately 11 sq.m. qualifies as usable living area from a measurement perspective. This measurement classification does not, however, change its legal status. The garden house remains designated as storage in the deed of division and its use as residential accommodation has not been legalized or permitted by the municipality. In practice, the current owner uses the space for guests, while its layout and facilities also make it suitable for purposes such as a home office, hobby room or additional storage.
