Van Eeghenstraat 127-B1071 GA AmsterdamCornelis Schuytbuurt

THE WIDE DOUBLE RESIDENCE | Living on Van Eeghenstraat is a dream for many and a reality for only a few. Spacieux stands for space, and in this apartment it feels even more generous than the numbers suggest. Spread across a single floor and spanning the full width of two townhouses, the home is defined by tall windows, abundant light, and open views. The proportions are ideal: a grand living space, two spacious bedrooms each with its own bathroom, and the possibility of creating a third room. In total, approximately 154 m², complete with internal storage, bay window, and a sunny south-facing terrace that flows directly from the kitchen. This part of Van Eeghenstraat, between Jacob Obrechtstraat and Cornelis Schuytstraat, is considered the most sought-after stretch. Living here is a true investment in the future. The apartment is accessible by lift, which opens directly into the residence, and is enhanced with a fireplace, high-quality insulation, and located on freehold land. The full living experience can be explored on our website or in our magazine. Via our website, you can also easily schedule a viewing yourself. Tour The distinguished entrance at number 127, with its richly decorated oak door, opens into a communal hall that still features its original marble finishes and ornate detailing. Above the entrance, a stained-glass window emphasises the historic charm. The apartment can be reached either via a well-kept stairwell or directly by lift, which opens into the private hall of the residence. Upon entering, the sense of space and ceiling height is immediately striking. The living room stretches across the full depth of the building, with a seven-metre-wide glass façade and three French doors at the rear, facing south, and three large windows at the front. The result is a bright, open living space with a harmonious balance of views over the Vondelpark and access to the expansive terrace. A study area at the front can easily be converted into an additional room if desired. The semi-open kitchen with cooking island is both practical and elegant, offering views of greenery and the terrace. Throughout the apartment, a dark herringbone parquet floor runs seamlessly, providing a stylish contrast to the abundance of natural light. The sleeping quarters are located on the opposite side of the residence. The master bedroom, positioned at the rear, features a spacious walk-in wardrobe and an en suite bathroom finished in timeless travertine marble, with a bathtub, walk-in shower, vanity, and natural daylight. At the front, a second bedroom has its own bathroom with shower and washbasin, and enjoys views over the park and surrounding architecture. The hallway includes a cloakroom and guest WC. Ceilings of approximately three metres add to the stately and serene ambiance of this exclusive home. What the residents will miss This apartment has long been rented out, with the tenant expressing that she had not realised beforehand how exceptional living here would be: “Living here is extraordinary—open, bright, and green. Thanks to the lift I was able to stay for many years. I truly did not want to leave. The apartment offers peace, with the neighbourhood just around the corner. The terrace was my extension of the living room; I used it constantly from February through October.” Neighbourhood The apartment is centrally located on Van Eeghenstraat in the Zuid district, in the Museum Quarter, directly by the Vondelpark, Cornelis Schuytstraat, and Emmastraat—a highly desirable address. Within walking distance are the Van Gogh Museum, the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum, and the Concertgebouw. Nearby Beethovenstraat, P.C. Hooftstraat, and Cornelis Schuytstraat offer a wealth of boutiques, delicatessens, and fine dining. Every Saturday, a farmers’ market takes place at Jacob Obrechtplein, just around the corner. The Spiegelkwartier, behind the Rijksmuseum, is renowned for its art galleries and charming shops. The Vondelpark and lively De Pijp are also within walking distance. This part of Amsterdam combines authenticity with convenience: historic buildings, peace, and privacy alongside all amenities within easy reach. Local residents value the specialist shops and restaurants nearby, describing it as a village within the city. The park is only steps away, the canals are within minutes, and the motorway is quickly accessible. For fine dining, Visque on Willemsparkweg is highly recommended; for coffee to go, Joe’s on Cornelis Schuytstraat or Café de Gruter with its sunny terrace are favourites. Cornelis Schuytstraat is especially well known for its excellent butcher shops. As part of our property presentation, we have curated a list of the most notable neighbourhood hotspots on our website.
