Malvastraat 291031 AZ AmsterdamVan der Pekbuurt

A charming apartment (double upper house) with a private entrance, measuring 96 m², located in the atmospheric Van der Pek neighborhood. One of the key features of this home is the separation between the living and sleeping floors. On the first floor, you'll find the kitchen, a spacious living and dining area, and the (potential) generously sized balcony. Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms and the bathroom. This quiet street is within walking distance of Mosplein and Noorderpark, with the North/South metro line and the ferry to the city center easily accessible. The neighborhood is known for its lively atmosphere, with cozy cafés, shops, and markets nearby. The property also has a conversion permit for three non-self-contained living units, meaning it can be shared by three individuals over the age of 18. Layout: You enter the apartment via a private staircase that leads to the landing on the first floor. On the right-hand side is the kitchen, equipped with a 5-burner gas stove, an oven, and a dishwasher. The dark blue cabinetry offers ample storage and gives the kitchen a bold, stylish look. Back on the landing, the dining area is to the right. From here, you can access the living room, which is also reachable from the landing. The living areas are attractively finished with warm wooden flooring, crisp white walls, and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. The dining area comfortably accommodates a large dining table, perfect for hosting, while the lounge provides a cozy spot to relax. There is a separate toilet located on the landing. A staircase leads to the second floor, where you’ll find the bathroom on the right. It features a large window, shower cabin, toilet, and sink. Conveniently located on the landing is a separate laundry room with connections for a washing machine. The central heating boiler is neatly tucked away, and there’s enough room for both a washer and dryer. The landing also offers potential to create an additional (home office) room. The spacious master bedroom receives lots of natural light thanks to the sloped ceiling and wide dormer window. There’s plenty of space for a large bed, wardrobe, and even a desk, making it a versatile room. The second bedroom is also bright and well-sized, featuring a characteristic dormer and a playful layout. Ideal as a child’s room, guest room, or office. With its wooden flooring and neutral finish, the space is move-in ready.
