Sarphatistraat 223-C1018 BX AmsterdamKadijken

Set within the former G.E.B. villa on the corner of Sarphatistraat and Hoogte Kadijk, this distinctive two-bedroom apartment offers approximately 122 sq m of living space arranged over the second and third floors. Its standout feature is the exceptional private roof terrace of over 52 sq m — a wonderfully secluded, sun-filled outdoor space with views towards one of Amsterdam’s iconic windmills. The villa was comprehensively redeveloped around 1991 to create ten apartments, a commercial unit and nine residences, while retaining its original architectural character. That sense of history and individuality can still be felt throughout the building today. LAYOUT The apartment is entered via the communal staircase on the second floor. From the entrance hall, you step into the living room: an exceptionally bright, well-proportioned space, with a sitting area centred around the Boley fireplace at one end and an open-plan kitchen and dining area at the other. Large windows on both sides, together with French doors opening onto the roof terrace, flood the room with natural light and provide attractive views across the surrounding neighbourhood. A staircase from the living room leads to the third floor, where there are two generously sized bedrooms and a spacious bathroom with an unusual and playful layout. The landing provides extensive built-in storage with sliding doors. Both bedrooms feature distinctive roof extensions incorporating sections of glass flooring, creating views down into the living and dining areas below. It is an unusual architectural detail that creates a striking sense of space and connection between the two floors. The apartment provides a comfortable and solid basis, although certain areas would benefit from updating and maintenance. This also presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner to modernise and finish the property to their own taste. THE ROOF TERRACE The approximately 52 sq m roof terrace is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the property. French doors from both the living area and kitchen open directly onto the terrace, creating a wonderful connection between indoors and out. Thanks to its generous depth and surrounding walls, the terrace feels remarkably private and secluded, with virtually no overlooking — an increasingly rare luxury for an outdoor space of this size in central Amsterdam. LOCATION & TRANSPORT The Sarphatistraat area offers the best of city living, with virtually everything close at hand. Artis Royal Zoo is just around the corner, an Albert Heijn supermarket is directly opposite, and the Dappermarkt, cafés, restaurants and local shops are all within easy walking distance. The canal is quite literally on the doorstep, while excellent public transport connections are available immediately outside the property. By car, Amsterdam’s main arterial routes and motorway network can also be reached with ease.
