Charming Ground-Floor Apartment with Spacious Private Garden and Freehold Ownership Character, comfort and outdoor living in one of Amsterdam-West’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. This beautifully renovated ground-floor apartment at Joan Melchior Kemperstraat 138 H combines authentic Amsterdam charm with contemporary comfort. Offering approximately 49 m² of living space, impressive ceilings of over 3 metres, a stylish modern interior and a generous private rear garden of approximately 44 m², this is a home that offers considerably more than its size might suggest. And perhaps most importantly: the property is situated on freehold land, meaning there is no ground lease (erfpacht) — a highly desirable and increasingly scarce feature in Amsterdam. A Home with Character Behind the charming historic façade, you will find a beautifully renovated home that was completely modernised in 2020, while retaining its sense of character. The impressive ceiling height and large windows create a wonderful feeling of space and bring an abundance of natural light into the apartment. The thoughtful layout makes excellent use of every square metre, resulting in a home that feels both comfortable and surprisingly spacious. The entrance opens into a welcoming hallway with useful storage space beneath the stairs. At the front of the apartment is the bright and inviting living room, where the large windows allow daylight to flood in. The modern kitchen is positioned at the heart of the home and is equipped with a comprehensive range of built-in appliances, including a Quooker boiling-water tap, dishwasher, combination oven/microwave, refrigerator with freezer compartment, gas hob and extractor hood. A stylish fitted cabinet wall opposite the kitchen provides generous additional storage. At the rear, there is ample space for a comfortable dining area, with beautiful French doors opening directly onto the garden. The result is a seamless connection between the interior and the private outdoor space. Whether you are hosting friends for dinner, enjoying a long weekend breakfast or simply relaxing with a cup of coffee in the morning sun, this is a home designed for enjoying everyday life. Peaceful Bedroom and Modern Bathroom The bedroom is quietly positioned at the rear of the property, creating a peaceful and comfortable place to retreat at the end of the day. The modern bathroom has been finished in keeping with the rest of the apartment and features a walk-in shower, toilet and washing machine connection. Your Own Private Garden in Amsterdam One of the property's standout features is the approximately 44 m² private rear garden. Having such a generous outdoor space in the heart of Amsterdam is a rare luxury. The garden offers plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, relaxing or simply enjoying a quiet moment away from the bustle of the city. A home with this combination of private outdoor space, character and central city living is not something you come across every day. Amsterdam-West at Its Best The apartment is located in a popular and lively part of Amsterdam-West, with Westerpark practically on your doorstep. Westerpark is the perfect place for a morning walk, a workout, a picnic or an afternoon spent enjoying the area's cultural attractions. The neighbourhood itself offers an excellent selection of cafés, restaurants, shops and terraces. The iconic Jordaan and Amsterdam city centre are also within easy reach. By bicycle, many of the city's favourite spots can be reached within just a few minutes. Daily amenities and supermarkets are conveniently located nearby, making this an ideal location for both relaxed city living and everyday convenience. The transport connections are excellent. Amsterdam Central Station and Sloterdijk Station are easily accessible by public transport, while the A10 ring road can be reached by car in approximately 10 minutes. Public electric vehicle charging points are available in the street. Freehold Land — No Ground Lease A particularly valuable feature of this property is that it is situated on freehold land. There is therefore no ground lease (erfpacht), which represents a significant financial and practical advantage in Amsterdam. Properties on freehold land are relatively scarce, making this an especially attractive characteristic of the apartment.
