Characterful Living in a Prime Location in the Plantage District! This bright ground-floor apartment on freehold land features a delightful private garden, Energy Label A, and a sustainable heat pump. Authentic period details, high ceilings, and modern living comfort come together perfectly. LAYOUT You enter the property through a private entrance into the hallway, which provides access to the various rooms. At the front of the apartment is the spacious living room, an exceptionally bright space thanks to the tall windows and impressive ceiling height of approximately 3.45 metres. The combination of the large windows and lofty ceilings fills the room with natural light throughout the day and creates a wonderful sense of space. Adjacent is the dining room, which also benefits from the generous ceiling height and offers a pleasant connection to the garden at the rear. The apartment still retains a number of authentic features, including beautiful original (restored) ornamental ceilings that highlight the property's character. In the centre of the apartment are the bathroom and a separate toilet. The generous ceiling height has been cleverly utilised by creating practical storage areas and built-in cupboards in several places, making optimal use of the available space. At the rear is the separate kitchen, fitted with a range of built-in appliances and offering direct access to the approximately 32 m² garden. The garden is a wonderful place to relax outdoors in complete tranquillity and serves as a valuable extension of the living space. Behind the kitchen is the bedroom, quietly positioned overlooking the garden and enjoying pleasant natural light through the tall windows. This charming ground-floor apartment combines a practical layout with abundant natural light, beautiful original details, and surprisingly generous storage space. Thanks to its high ceilings, large windows, and authentic features, the home feels spacious, atmospheric, and exceptionally comfortable. Garden: At the end of the day, the garden captures the very last rays of sunshine. Leave the vibrant city behind and unwind in this charming and remarkably peaceful garden. Designed by biologist and poet J.H. Daams, it offers not only a generous terrace but also lovely views of the surrounding greenery. Subtle changes in elevation and a hidden seating area create a delightful sense of discovery, while careful attention has been paid to the sightlines from every window. Both the house and the garden remain pleasantly cool during hot summer days.

Artis Royal Zoo is also just around the corner, along with the public Artisplein, where you can admire the flamingos and where children can enjoy playing in the fountain during the summer. Cross the Lau Mazirel Bridge to reach attractive waterside picnic spots within minutes. For a great cup of coffee or dinner on a terrace, Coffee Company and De Pizzabakkers are literally just around the corner, alongside many other popular cafés and restaurants. The Plantage District is also renowned as Amsterdam's cultural quarter. Within walking distance you will find the Groote Museum, Micropia, the Wereldmuseum, the Jewish Historical Museum, the Hollandsche Schouwburg, the Dutch Resistance Museum, the Stopera, Studio Desmet, and Kriterion cinema. Accessibility is excellent as well. Tram 14 provides a direct connection to Amsterdam Central Station, while the metro is just a short walk away.
