Spacious and exceptionally bright 3-level upper residence of 215m² (GFA 281m²) with a stunning living floor, 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a sunny 28m² roof terrace in charming Oud-Zuid. This impressive and light-filled upper residence is situated in a beautiful municipal monument located on a quiet street in the desirable Oud-Zuid district. Spread over the second, third, and fourth floors, this expansive home offers a luxurious open-plan living floor with a bespoke kitchen, five generous bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a west-facing roof terrace measuring over 28m². The residence is part of a municipal monument designed in the Amsterdam School architectural style by F.A. Warners. A beautifully designed private stairway leads to the first floor entrance. From there, the private entrance opens into the apartment, which spans three floors. The internal staircase is a true signature feature of the property. The current owners undertook a near-complete renovation in 2021, guided by an interior architect. The living floor was opened up to create a stunning, airy space. A stylish, handmade walnut kitchen with high-end finishes and marble countertops was also installed. An additional bedroom and luxury bathroom were added on the third floor, along with a laundry room. The two top-floor bedrooms feature air conditioning and en-suite bathrooms. Throughout the home, beautiful oak flooring has been laid, and the walls have been smoothly plastered—some with tasteful modern wall coverings. The building is in excellent condition with regular maintenance and painting carried out as part of a long-term maintenance plan (MJOP). The property is on leasehold land, with the ground rent prepaid until December 31, 2051. The switch to perpetual leasehold was applied for under favorable terms. The homeowners’ association (VvE) consists of two units, is financially healthy, and self-managed. Monthly service charges are €225. LAYOUT Via the eye-catching stone staircase, you reach the first floor with the entrance door to the apartment. Here you will find a wardrobe area and the authentic staircase leading up to the expansive and inviting landing. This level features an additional wardrobe, a separate toilet, a storage room with the central heating system, and two entrances to the large living area. Between the steel-framed glass doors and the second entrance, a custom-built, floor-to-ceiling bookcase has been installed. This floor is bathed in natural light thanks to large windows on both sides. The sitting area includes a charming fireplace and space for a large lounge setup. It flows seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen at the rear. The kitchen, handmade with durable walnut cabinetry and a richly veined marble countertop, includes high-end built-in appliances and a wide kitchen island with seating and storage. A stylish internal staircase leads to the sleeping quarters on the upper floor. This level includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and access to the sunny 28m² west-facing roof terrace. The bedroom on the right accommodates a double bed, has a built-in wardrobe, and a washstand with basin. A dormer window provides extra space and light. The second bedroom, on the left, includes a full wall of built-in wardrobes and a desk. The third bedroom is located in between and also has a built-in wardrobe. The spacious landing includes a laundry area and a built-in cabinet. The open vestibule space has a custom-built desk, making it ideal as a home office. Two luxurious bathrooms complete this floor. The larger one is designed in a sleek black-and-white palette and features a bathtub, walk-in shower, toilet, washbasin, and underfloor heating. The second bathroom has a more natural aesthetic, with a stylish tiled floor, light-toned wall tiles, a refined wooden washbasin unit, walk-in shower, floating toilet, and underfloor heating. Brass fixtures add a refined touch. The large west-facing roof terrace is finished with hardwood decking and a tall balustrade, providing both privacy and a lovely place to relax. A fixed staircase leads to the second sleeping level, located under the roof’s ridge where the exposed beams add character. Both the landing and the surprisingly spacious bedrooms have Velux roof windows for natural light. There is plenty of storage under the windows, running along the entire garden side. Both bedrooms come with bespoke desks, air conditioning, and en-suite bathrooms, each with walk-in showers and washbasins. In short: A truly grand home in a fantastic location.
