Bachstraat 261077 GG AmsterdamBeethovenbuurt

Beautifully renovated family home of approximately 300 m², featuring five bedrooms, a spacious kitchen-diner, a bright living room, a study, and a sunny garden room with access to a large rooftop terrace, complete with an elevator (!) located in the popular Beethovenbuurt neighborhood in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid. Location De Bachstraat was designed by architect G.J. Rutgers in the Amsterdam School style, recognizable by its expressionist brickwork, staggered facades, and decorative details—typical of the architecture in Amsterdam Zuid from the 1920s and 1930s. The neighborhood combines quiet, green streets with the vibrancy of the city just a short distance away. The nearby Beethovenstraat offers a diverse range of shops, including bookstores, a pharmacy, a bike repair shop, florists, bakeries, a butcher, a cheese and a fish shop, a greengrocer, a dry cleaner, and a post office. Albert Heijn and Hema are just around the corner. There are also several cozy cafés, such as Bar Kaspar, Le Pain Quotidien, and QV wine bar, as well as restaurants like Margaux and Ferilli’s. There are several excellent elementary and secondary schools in the neighborhood. The music school is right on the street. The international school, the British school, and the French school are all nearby as well. Both Beatrixpark and Vondelpark are within walking distance. Public transportation to the city center and Schiphol Airport is excellent. The tram stop, serving various lines to the city center or Zuidas, Amsterdam-Zuid Station, and VU University, is just 200 meters away. The station is only a 5-minute tram ride or a 15-minute walk away. The location is also convenient by car: you can reach the A10 ring road in just a few minutes. Parking is available through a permit system (2 permits possible). Layout Through the entrance hall with its marble floor and wood paneling, you enter the beautiful foyer of this exceptionally warm and cozy home. Double steel doors lead into the open-concept kitchen/dining room. The kitchen itself is equipped with Siemens studioLine built-in appliances, including two ovens (with microwave and steam functions), a wide induction cooktop, a Quooker, a dishwasher, and a side-by-side refrigerator and freezer. The dark blue cabinet fronts and marble countertop create a calm and stylish look. From the kitchen, French doors provide access to the patio garden. The kitchen offers plenty of space for a large dining table. There is even enough room to create a sitting area and a TV corner. On the other side of the hall is a comfortable study with a view of the street—ideal as a home office. This floor also features a separate guest restroom and, of course, the elevator. All floors are accessible via both the elevator and the staircase. The staircase has been preserved in the Amsterdam School style and serves as a striking focal point within the home. On the first floor, at the front, there is a spacious living room with four large windows that let in plenty of natural light. At the rear is a spacious bedroom with a balcony and an adjoining bathroom featuring a double sink, toilet, and spacious walk-in shower. The second floor features two large bedrooms and a third, smaller room, all of which are ideal as children’s rooms, guest rooms, or home offices, as well as a balcony facing the street. Additionally, you’ll find a separate toilet and a second bathroom with a bathtub and double sink. The third floor is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the house. Here you’ll find the garden room with direct access to the spacious rooftop terrace. Thanks to the folding doors, a wonderful indoor-outdoor feeling is created. The practical kitchenette allows you to fully enjoy long summer evenings on the terrace, while the elevator also makes this floor easily accessible. Beautiful oak parquet flooring runs throughout the entire home, with each floor featuring its own unique pattern—ranging from classic herringbone to a stylish block pattern. Finally, the home features a well-maintained basement, ideal as a hobby room, gym, or playroom. It also houses the connections for the washer and dryer and a spacious storage room. Since water and heating lines are already in place, a sleeping area with a bathroom can be created with minimal work if desired.
