Charming living with open views in the popular Westerpark/Staatsliedenbuurt A charming and well-presented two-room apartment of approximately 38 m², featuring a sunny west-facing balcony, plenty of natural light and surprisingly open views. Welcome to Van Bossestraat 32-2: a well-maintained apartment on the second floor, right in the heart of the popular Staatsliedenbuurt and with Westerpark practically around the corner. What immediately stands out is the bright and open feel of the apartment. From the bedroom at the front, there is a lovely view down Rochussenstraat, while at the rear both the living room and balcony enjoy an attractive and unobstructed outlook. And then there is the building itself. The apartment forms part of a distinctive residential block designated as a municipal monument. Its characteristic tower, remarkable architecture and fascinating history add an extra touch of authentic Amsterdam charm. Pleasant and practical layout The living room is situated at the rear of the apartment and features an open-plan kitchen. It is a comfortable and inviting living space with room for both a seating and dining area. From here, you can step directly onto the west-facing balcony. A lovely spot to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun while taking in the open views at the rear. The bedroom is situated at the front of the apartment and enjoys a characteristic view along Rochussenstraat. The bathroom is neatly finished and complements the well-maintained condition of the apartment. Living in a municipal monument The apartment forms part of the distinctive residential block at Van Bossestraat 8-54, dating from 1916. The symmetrical complex is particularly recognisable for its characteristic tower, positioned in the sightline of Rochussenstraat. The building also has a remarkable history. During the Second World War, in May 1943, a British bomber crashed into the central section of the residential block near numbers 32-34. The damaged section was subsequently rebuilt, while the original rooftop tower, which was lost in the incident, was reconstructed in 2005. Since 2016, the entire residential block has been designated as a municipal monument – a unique piece of Amsterdam history that forms part of everyday life here.
