Layout The apartment is accessed via the communal staircase, with its entrance on the first floor. Upon entering, you arrive in a central hallway providing access to the various rooms. The living room is undoubtedly the heart of the apartment. The first thing you notice is the wonderful natural light. Thanks to the corner position and windows on several sides, the room feels exceptionally bright, airy and open. And then there are the views! From the living room, you look directly out over the Jacob van Lennepkade canal, the water and the beautiful historic façades opposite. The charming corner bay window adds even more character and provides a lovely spot from which to enjoy the scenery. With a ceiling height of approximately 2.62 metres and ample space for both a comfortable seating area and a large dining table, this is a particularly inviting living space. The open-plan kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the living room and features a practical L-shaped layout with a peninsula. This creates a natural connection between the kitchen and living area, making it a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. The generous bedroom is located on the other side of the apartment. Here, too, the windows provide pleasant natural light. There is plenty of room for a comfortable double bed, while the adjoining walk-in wardrobe offers excellent storage space. If preferred, this additional space could easily be transformed into a comfortable home office. The bedroom provides direct access to the spacious en-suite bathroom, featuring both a walk-in shower and a bathtub, as well as a toilet. Mechanical ventilation and double-opening windows provide natural light and additional ventilation. The central hallway also leads to a separate second toilet, a particularly convenient feature when entertaining guests. There is also a spacious internal storage room of approximately 4 m², accommodating the washing machine, dryer and private central heating installation. This practical space allows the main living areas to remain uncluttered and fully functional. The layout therefore combines charm with surprising practicality, offering generous storage and a pleasant separation between living, sleeping and utility areas. Owners' Association (VvE) The apartment forms part of a small-scale, professionally managed Owners' Association comprising four apartment rights. The Owners' Association is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 56220839. The property is subject to a main division and a subdivision into apartment rights. The main division comprises the commercial premises on the ground floor and the three apartments above. The association holds annual meetings and has both collective building insurance, including an apartment clause, and liability insurance in place. A long-term maintenance plan was prepared in 2023, covering the period from 2023 through 2033. According to the seller, the association's reserve fund amounted to approximately €13,041 as of 17 October 2026. The current monthly Owners' Association contribution is €159. Foundations An important advantage of this property is that foundation restoration work was carried out in 2020. Based on the available information, the property is therefore considered to have a low foundation risk. Further documentation relating to the foundation works is available upon request, insofar as it is included in the sales documentation. Ownership The apartment is situated on freehold land. This means there is no ground lease (erfpacht) and therefore no annual ground rent to pay.

The apartment is situated in the highly desirable Oud-West district, one of Amsterdam's most popular residential neighbourhoods.
