Van Eeghenstraat 117-B1071 GA AmsterdamCornelis Schuytbuurt

Van Eeghenstraat – Amsterdam Oud-Zuid On one of the most distinguished streets in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid, with the Vondelpark as its backyard, this characterful apartment of approximately 91 m² is presented for sale. Located on the first floor of a monumental building, on freehold land (no leasehold), the home combines beautifully preserved historical features with plenty of scope for a contemporary upgrade. Entrance and living room The central hall impresses with an immaculate marble floor and fine wainscoting, still entirely in its original state; an elegant staircase leads to the landing, with a generous coat closet. The living room at the front is the showpiece: a bay window, tall windows with an unobstructed view of the park, and a high ceiling with original ornamental mouldings — each an authentic detail that has weathered the passage of time beautifully. Through authentic double doors, flanked by built-in cabinets, you reach the semi-open kitchen. Rear of the property At the quiet, south-facing rear of the apartment lies the spacious, light-filled bedroom with its own conservatory, plus an adjoining study, ideal as a home office or guest room. The bathroom (walk-in shower, sink) is functional but, like a few other parts of the home, could use some loving attention; a separate toilet is located in the hall. A blank canvas The historical core of this apartment — the marble hall, the bay window, the high ceilings, the double doors — is authentic and in good condition. Other parts of the home, on the other hand, call for that TLC (tender loving care), offering a wonderful starting point for a thorough, contemporary renovation to suit your own vision. For illustrative purposes, a few AI-generated impression images have been included with this listing. In short: a blank canvas with an authentic heart, waiting for an owner to make something beautiful of it. Surroundings Within walking distance of the Museumplein (Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Stedelijk Museum) and the Concertgebouw. Around the corner lies the Cornelis Schuytstraat, with exclusive boutiques, specialty shops and cozy cafés, complemented by numerous excellent restaurants and terraces. Tranquility, culture, gastronomy and greenery come together here on one of the most prestigious addresses in the city. Owners' Association (VvE) Small, select VvE (owners' association) of 3 members; annual contribution depends on maintenance costs, approximately €1,000 for 2025. The VvE has recently invested in maintenance (exterior painting, restoration of natural stone, new stair runners, painting of the entrance).
