About this property

Free and private living above the city, with vibrant Oud-West right on your doorstep. This bright top-floor apartment offers 85 m² of living space, two bedrooms and a large bathroom, plus a roof terrace of approximately 50 m². This much private outdoor space is a rarity in this part of Amsterdam.

Its elevated position, with no neighbours above, brings privacy, open views and a welcome sense of calm, while downstairs you step straight into lively Oud-West. The apartment also stays comfortable in summer: the living room, kitchen/dining area and main bedroom are all air-conditioned.

Layout

The living room is bright and well-proportioned, with a beautiful oak parquet floor. The main bedroom is spacious; the second bedroom works equally well as a home office or guest room. The bathroom is remarkably large and comfortable for two people to use at the same time, and there is a practical walk-in wardrobe.

The kitchen/dining area is a living space in its own right, with generous room for cooking and long dinners. A large skylight and the roof lantern bring in daylight throughout the day. The kitchen features a granite worktop, integrated appliances and ample space for a large dining table.

Roof terrace of approximately 50 m²

One of the home's major highlights is the roof terrace of approximately 50 m², with room for a large dining table, a lounge area and plenty of greenery. From here you look freely across the rooftops of Amsterdam towards the Kostverlorenvaart, with the Westertoren on the horizon. From morning coffee to long summer dinners, this is an exceptional amount of outdoor space high above the city.

The neighbourhood

Downstairs you will find the cafés, restaurants, shops and terraces of Oud-West. De Hallen, the Ten Kate market and the Jordaan are around the corner, the city centre is a few minutes by bike, and trams and buses stop virtually at the door. It is exactly this combination that makes the apartment special: space and calm at home, the city right below.
