Extending over two floors and offering approximately 137 sq. m. of living space, the apartment provides ample room for comfortable city living. The current layout is particularly practical. The second floor accommodates the bedrooms and bathrooms, while the third floor is entirely dedicated to living, cooking and entertaining. This creates a natural separation between the sleeping and living areas. The property also has a distinctive character that complements its historic Amsterdam surroundings. The generous proportions, elevated position and layout across two floors make this a particularly appealing property for those looking for space in a central location. COOKING AND LIVING The kitchen and living room are located on the third floor and together form the heart of the home. The living areas are exceptionally bright thanks to the numerous windows and also offer pleasant views of the greenery. This gives the floor a spacious and inviting feel while highlighting the character of the property. The kitchen has been renovated in several stages, with the Bora and Quooker installed in 2022. The oven and dishwasher date from 2018. The kitchen is therefore well equipped and provides a pleasant setting for cooking and dining. The generous living space offers plenty of room for a large dining table, a comfortable seating area and, if desired, a home office. The living areas also provide access to the staircase leading to the roof, creating the potential to realise a rooftop terrace. This offers the opportunity to add a truly exceptional outdoor space in the heart of Amsterdam. The layout makes the property suitable for both families and couples looking for a spacious home with a clear separation between living and sleeping areas. BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS The bedrooms are located on the second floor. The two bathrooms were renovated in 2018 and 2022 and include, among other features, a bathtub. They therefore offer a good level of contemporary comfort. The property also features two independent central-heating systems: a Remeha Avanta 28C HR-107 boiler serving the upper floor and a comparable ATAG HR-107 boiler serving the lower floor. Both systems are privately owned and were last serviced in 2023. COMFORT AND MAINTENANCE Various investments have been made in both the building and the property in recent years. The entire roof was replaced in 2024 due to age and leaks and was insulated at the same time. The exterior window frames have been painted at various times, and the property is fully fitted with insulating glazing, ranging from HR++ to HR+++. Each of the two apartment rights has its own energy label: 107-2 has energy label B and 107-3 has energy label C. VVE / HOMEOWNERS’ ASSOCIATION The property forms part of a small-scale homeowners’ association (VvE). A reserve fund is in place and a Multi-Year Maintenance Plan (MJOP) has been prepared for the period 2026–2035. The current monthly VvE contribution is €150, consisting of €75 per apartment right. There is also a collective building insurance policy including an apartment clause. In recent years, significant investment has been made in the roof within the VvE. The roof was replaced and insulated at the beginning of 2024. Maintenance has also been carried out to the roof edge, while painting of the communal areas is being addressed in stages.

Among other things, part of the communal staircase was allocated to apartment 107-3. Apartment 107-3 is also subject to an easement in the form of a right of way for the benefit of apartment 107-2.
