Marco Polostraat 265-3, 1056 DM Amsterdam Attractive and well-maintained upper-level apartment on the 3rd and 4th floors, approximately 108 m², featuring a wide balcony on the 3rd floor and a deep terrace on the 4th floor, both west-facing for optimal sunlight. This beautiful apartment is located on the tree-lined and spacious Marco Polostraat, near the Rembrandtpark and Erasmuspark. The building showcases the characteristic 1930s architectural style of De Baarsjes, and the apartment retains charming features such as stained-glass transom windows. Currently offering 4 bedrooms, a kitchen-diner adjacent to the wide balcony, and a deep terrace (on the 4th floor) adjoining one of the bedrooms, this property presents numerous possibilities for use. The ground lease has also been well arranged; the current ground rent is just €615.68 per year and is fixed under favorable conditions for the perpetual period. The property is situated on the third and fourth floors and has the following layout: Layout Third Floor Via a private entrance on the second floor, a spacious staircase leads to the third floor. On this level, there's a landing/hallway, corridor to the living area, kitchen, and toilet. The spacious living room is located at the front of the apartment and offers ample space for a comfortable sitting area, featuring stained-glass transom windows. The generous open kitchen-diner is situated at the rear of the property and includes double French doors opening to the wide west-facing balcony. This floor contains two bedrooms: a smaller one at the front and a larger one at the rear (with French doors to the balcony). The apartment can be moved into without any modifications. However, if desired, simple alterations can be made on the 3rd floor: For example, the front bedroom could be incorporated into the living room without structural issues, creating a more spacious living area. Additionally, the rear bedroom could be connected to the kitchen area. A more extensive option is to integrate the hallway/corridor into the living space (by removing the wall), making the living room even larger and enhancing the view of the striking staircase (see impressionphoto). Fourth Floor A wide and elegant staircase provides access to the fourth floor, which includes: a landing with double French doors leading to the deep terrace; access to the front-facing bathroom, which is equipped with a bathtub, toilet, shower, and double washbasin vanity.

The fourth spacious bedroom is located at the rear, overlooking the garden, and features double French doors leading to the deep terrace. There is currently no rooftop terrace on the roof of the 4th floor. However, one could be created, provided that permission is obtained from the municipality and the homeowners’ association (VVE). The staircase that runs from the 3rd to the 4th floor can be extended to the rooftop terrace.
