Moreelsestraat 11 hs – Amsterdam A spacious three-story ground-floor apartment of international allure, where many characteristic elements have been preserved. This beautiful home is located in a prime spot in Amsterdam South, in one of the most charming streets of the Museum Quarter, with Museumplein as a second backyard. The ground floor and basement were fully renovated in 2019, and the house has a new foundation. In total, there are five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and three toilets. The open kitchen with dining area connects to the generous garden of approximately 63m² and features a gas fireplace. The living room has a wood-burning fireplace. The house sits on its own land and has an energy label A. Living in Oud-Zuid, just a stone's throw from the Concertgebouw, and nestled in the quiet of the vibrant Museumplein, the cozy Van Baerlestraat, and the lively city center is a privilege few get to experience. The House Entering the house through the classic front door, you reach the living room en suite. Immediately, you notice the large and light living kitchen that is in open connection with the spacious garden. The luxurious en suite front room is equipped with a wood-burning fireplace and Elitis wallpaper on the walls. The ornate ceiling moldings are a standout feature in both the front and back rooms. The kitchen has an island with a marble top, a 4-zone induction cooktop, and a Quooker tap (boiling/sparkling water). Additionally, the kitchen is equipped with high-end built-in appliances, including an oven, steam oven, coffee machine, dishwasher, wine fridge, and a second sink. The room is fitted with a state-of-the-art sound system (Bowers & Wilkins) with built-in ceiling speakers. On a summer day, the accordion-style doors bring the garden into the living space in a stylish way. From the hall, the original staircase leads to the first floor, where you will find a spacious landing with a separate toilet. This floor includes four rooms in total. At the front of the property are a large and a small bedroom, which can also serve as a study. The large room has a built-in closet and access to a generous French balcony overlooking Moreelsestraat and Van Baerlestraat. The central bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, a large walk-in shower, and a double vanity. At the back of this floor are two more bedrooms: the master bedroom with a built-in closet and air conditioning, and a smaller room. The basement can be accessed in two ways: via a staircase in the hallway, which is ideal for a guest or nanny, ensuring privacy, and via the bold industrial design staircase in the living room. The basement floor is heated with underfloor heating. It features a spacious bedroom/study, a bathroom with a walk-in shower, a separate toilet, a laundry room, and plenty of extra storage space. At the garden side is a spacious second living area with a pool table. Depending on your needs, there is also the possibility to easily create a sixth large bedroom or office in this room. This area is remarkably light because, during the construction of the basement, the cellar was extended beyond the ground floor, allowing a lot of daylight to flood in and creating the same luxurious atmosphere as the rest of the house. In short, this ground-floor apartment offers a perfect combination of comfort, luxury, and location. A unique opportunity to live in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Amsterdam, with all amenities and attractions within easy reach. The Garden The garden of 63 m² is northwest-facing, but thanks to its open position, it is sun-drenched. This is a peaceful retreat in the heart of the bustling city. A wonderful place to relax and enjoy the sun. The outdoor kitchen, built-in lounge seating, and sound system ensure perfect summer evenings. The Neighborhood 200 years ago, where Museumplein now stands, there were still farms. To create more living space, the construction of the Museum Quarter began in the early 20th century. The work of architect Cuypers is visible here, as he not only designed the first residences but also the Rijksmuseum in Neo-Gothic style. This period is beautifully described in Publieke Werken by Thomas Rosenboom. Together with the Concertgebouw in Neo-Renaissance style, this building defines the character of the neighborhood. The range of restaurants, cafés, and shops is as diverse as the architectural styles and fits perfectly with the international allure of the neighborhood. Haute couture enthusiasts and buyers can visit the P.C. Hooftstraat, home to fashion houses such as Burberry, Ba&sh, and Isabel Marant Étoile. The beauty of this neighborhood is that the city center, De Pijp, and Amsterdam South – with Vondelpark – are all within walking distance. Accessibility The apartment is easily accessible by bike, car, or public transport. The A10 Ring can be reached in just 5 minutes by car via exit S108 (Oud-Zuid) or exit S109 (Buitenveldert).
