Rooseveltlaan 209-31079 AS AmsterdamScheldebuurt-West

The owners bought this typical Amsterdam 1930’s apartment in its original state. A lot of space was ‘lost’ on long and wide hallways with doors to a lot of small rooms. We opened up the apartment and made it the most light and spacious on the block. Unique, bright, and spacious living in an iconic 1930s building with an elevator and a spectacularly large roof terrace! Located in one of the most beautiful locations in the beloved Rivierenbuurt, this exceptionally spacious and architecturally renovated apartment measures approximately 161 m². A rare combination of characteristic 1930s architecture, modern living comfort, abundant daylight, and an impressive roof terrace of approximately 55 m². Moreover, the apartment is accessible by elevator – an absolute luxury in Amsterdam. In 2010, the property was completely transformed by the renowned architectural firm I29. The original apartment, with its many small rooms and long corridors, was fully redesigned into a bright, open, and spacious home where design, functionality, and living comfort come together seamlessly. An architecturally high-quality family apartment with an elevator, four bedrooms, multiple outdoor spaces, and a phenomenal roof terrace in one of Amsterdam's most sought-after locations. A home that brings together space, light, and comfort in an exceptional way. LAYOUT Third floor You reach the apartment on the third floor via the beautiful entrance portal with a natural stone staircase or the elevator. The spacious hall provides access to two generously sized bedrooms, a modern bathroom with a shower and sink, and a separate toilet. The absolute centerpiece of this floor is the spectacular living room, which extends from the front to the rear facade. Thanks to the atmospheric bay window at the front, large windows, and French doors opening onto the sunny balcony at the rear, the space is flooded with daylight. A distinctive architectural element is the multifunctional custom-made cabinet featuring a playful pattern of laser-cut openings. This unique eye-catcher elegantly combines storage space, kitchen functions, and structural elements, while maintaining the open character of the room. The open staircase leading upstairs is illuminated by a large skylight, allowing even more natural light to enter the living room. Fourth floor Two spacious bedrooms are located on this floor. The master bedroom features large built-in wardrobes and direct access to the luxurious bathroom, equipped with a bathtub, spacious walk-in shower, double sink, and toilet. The other bedroom (or study or dressing/laundry room) also offers ample closet space and a connection for the washing machine, cleverly concealed behind a beautiful wooden sliding wall. Also located on this floor is a balcony spanning the full width of the home at the sunny rear. A comfortable staircase then leads you to the absolute highlight of this home: the impressive roof terrace of approximately 55 m². Thanks to the electrically opening roof structure, you enter a delightful outdoor space with plenty of sun, privacy, and a beautiful unobstructed view of the surrounding buildings. A unique place to relax, dine, or entertain guests.
