Description

INTRODUCTION Charming and well-proportioned apartment of approximately 55 sq.m., featuring a generous living room, spacious bedroom and private balcony, situated on the second floor of a characteristic 1930s building in the popular Hoofddorpplein neighbourhood of Amsterdam South. The apartment offers an appealing combination of period character, comfortable room sizes and a practical layout. A spacious living room occupies the front of the property, while the bedroom, separate kitchen and balcony are positioned towards the rear. The current configuration also offers an interesting opportunity to create a second bedroom by relocating the kitchen to the living area, making the apartment particularly appealing to couples looking for additional flexibility. The property is situated on freehold land and benefits from energy label C. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The apartment is located on the second floor and provides approximately 55 sq.m. of residential floor area, complemented by a private balcony at the rear. The floor plan is practical and well balanced, with a pleasant division between the living and sleeping areas. A particularly attractive recent improvement is the brand-new flooring, installed only two weeks ago, giving the apartment a fresh and well-maintained appearance throughout. At the front, the generously proportioned living room provides ample space for both a comfortable seating area and a substantial dining table. Its size allows for different furnishing arrangements and also creates the possibility of incorporating an open-plan kitchen in the future. At the rear, the bedroom enjoys a more private position and comfortably accommodates a double bed together with wardrobe space. The separate kitchen is also positioned at the rear and provides direct access to the balcony. The kitchen was installed in 2015 and has been updated over time, including a built-in washing machine dating from 2021 and a hob renewed in 2024. The apartment is fitted with HR++ glazing. The exterior window frames consist of a combination of hardwood and synthetic materials, with painting works carried out at the front in 2019 and at the rear in 2023. Heating is provided by a Vaillant central-heating boiler. The flue was renewed in 2023 and the heating system is serviced periodically. The electrical distribution board was renewed in 2015. Together with energy label C, these features contribute to the overall comfort of the apartment. LAYOUT The apartment is reached via the communal staircase. Entrance into the central hallway, from which the various rooms can be accessed. At the front of the apartment is the spacious living room. Its generous proportions allow for a comfortable seating area as well as a large dining table, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The separate kitchen is situated at the rear and is fitted with cabinetry, work surfaces and various appliances. From the kitchen, access is provided to the balcony, where there is also a practical storage cupboard. Adjacent to the kitchen is the main bedroom. This is a well-sized room with sufficient space for a double bed, wardrobes and additional furniture if desired. The bathroom is centrally positioned and features a shower and toilet. Further built-in storage is available from the hallway. POTENTIAL SECOND BEDROOM An attractive feature of the apartment is the possibility of creating a second bedroom. By relocating the kitchen into the spacious living room and creating an open-plan kitchen and living area, the current kitchen could be transformed into an additional room. This offers an appealing option for young couples who may wish to create a nursery, guest bedroom or dedicated home office. The current one-bedroom configuration therefore offers flexibility for the future and the possibility of adapting the apartment into a two-bedroom layout as living requirements change. OWNERSHIP The apartment is situated on freehold land, meaning no ground lease payments are applicable.
