Characterful Amsterdam living in a building dating from 1905, just a few minutes’ walk from Westerpark and with a surprising amount of functionality within approximately 37 m². A bright living area, separate bedroom, dedicated workspace, balcony and spacious external storage room make this a remarkably complete apartment for its size. Layout: Upon entering, the natural light immediately stands out. Three large windows at the front give the living and dining area a bright and open feel. The available space has been used efficiently, providing plenty of room for both a comfortable seating area and a proper dining table. The living room flows naturally into the kitchen, which was renovated in 2024. The open layout means you remain connected to the living space while cooking. Towards the rear is a clever additional room currently arranged as a home office. The fold-away desk allows you to easily free up the room after the working day. The washing machine connection has also been neatly concealed here. In addition, there is a surprising amount of extra storage space, ideal for coats, summer and winter clothing and other belongings you want to keep close at hand but out of sight. Next to the workspace is the bedroom, with sufficient space for a full-size double bed and wardrobe space. Both the bedroom and workspace provide access to the rear balcony of approximately 4.7 m². The balcony faces west and, according to the current owner, enjoys sunshine in summer from approximately 11:00/12:00 until sunset. The bathroom is practically arranged with a shower, toilet and washbasin. Technology and sustainability: The apartment has energy label B and is equipped with an Itho Daalderop ventilation unit with an automatic humidity sensor. The temperature can be conveniently controlled using the smart Honeywell Home thermostat. The central heating boiler dates from 2024 and is a rented unit. According to the current owner, gas and electricity costs are approximately €95 per month combined. Actual costs will of course depend on consumption and the chosen energy contract. The building: The property dates from 1905 and was fully renovated and subdivided into apartments in 2009. As part of this process, the foundations were also investigated and foundation repairs were carried out. According to the available information, foundation code 2 was issued at the time. The apartment also comes with a private external storage room on the top floor of the building. At approximately 8.3 m², this is particularly spacious and practical by Amsterdam standards. The official measurement report confirms 37.16 m² of living space, 4.65 m² of building-related outdoor space and 8.34 m² of external storage space. Location: Van der Hoopstraat is situated in the heart of the Staatsliedenbuurt, with Westerpark and the Westergas complex just a few minutes’ walk away. Here, greenery, restaurants, culture and entertainment come together, with terraces, restaurants, events and the well-known Gashouder all close by. There is also plenty happening in the streets immediately surrounding the apartment. For everyday groceries, Albert Heijn on Van Limburg Stirumstraat and Dirk on Tweede Nassaustraat are within easy walking distance. Around Van Limburg Stirumplein and towards Westerpark you will find a wide selection of cafés, restaurants, speciality shops and neighbourhood stores. The Jordaan, Haarlemmerdijk and Amsterdam city centre are all quickly accessible by bicycle. Public transport connections are also convenient, while the A10 ring road can be reached easily by car. And the first five coffees are on the seller: Cheeky is located directly across the street. Especially for the new owner, the seller will open a tab there, meaning your first five coffees after receiving the keys are on the seller. A fun way to get acquainted with your new neighbourhood. Owners’ Association and ground lease: The Owners’ Association consists of seven apartment rights and is very active. A considerable amount of maintenance has been carried out on the building in recent years, including the complete renewal of the balcony structure. At the time of writing, the Owners’ Association has reserves of more than €15,000. The monthly service charge is approximately €124. The ground lease has been prepaid until 31 December 2059. No annual ground rent is therefore payable until that date. A little piece of history: Van der Hoopstraat 63 even has its own piece of neighbourhood history. This address was once home to the De Wilde family’s grocery store, a fitting detail for the Staatsliedenbuurt and its long history as a genuine Amsterdam residential and shopping neighbourhood. Tip from the estate agent: Do not judge this apartment solely by the number of square metres. Look at what those metres actually provide. The combination of a separate bedroom, dedicated home office, private outdoor space and more than 8 m² of external storage makes the apartment considerably more functional than its size on paper might initially suggest.
