Description
Unique top-floor apartment with a ceiling height of over 7 metres! Located in the lively De Pijp neighbourhood near the Amstel River, this exceptionally characteristic building – better known as “The House with the Gnomes” – is a true local landmark on the Ceintuurbaan. This 19th-century property features a stunning façade adorned with two gnomes and is situated on freehold land.
An ideal opportunity to renovate and lay out the apartment entirely to your own taste.
The owner has applied for and obtained a permit for the construction of a mezzanine floor.
With the addition of the mezzanine, the total usable floor area will amount to approximately 113 m².

Accessibility is excellent. Several tram and bus lines (including lines 3 and 12) provide easy access to the rest of the city, while the A10 and A2 motorways can be reached within minutes by car. The De Pijp metro station on the North/South line is right around the corner.
NEN CLAUSE
The usable floor area has been calculated in accordance with the industry standard NEN 2580 measurement guidelines. Surface areas may differ from older reference materials due to this updated method of calculation. Buyer acknowledges having been adequately informed about this standard. The seller and their agent have made every effort to calculate the correct area and volume based on their own measurements and to support this with detailed floor plans. Should any discrepancies arise, the buyer accepts these and waives any right to claim or price adjustment.
