Light and Spacious Duplex Upper House in the Heart of Oud-Zuid

Exceptionally light and spacious duplex upper house of no less than 199 m², featuring a private street-level entrance, two sunny west-facing balconies and unobstructed views over the greenery of the Reijnier Vinkeleskade. Located on the quiet Banstraat, right in the heart of the sought-after Museum Quarter in Amsterdam Oud-Zuid.

A wonderful family home full of character, space and potential, offering ample opportunity to modernise and tailor the property entirely to your own taste and requirements. The apartment features four to five bedrooms, a study, a pleasant family kitchen and two west-facing balconies. In 2023, all window frames were replaced and fitted with double glazing.

The apartment has the following layout:

Ground Floor & Basement
The apartment is accessed via its own private entrance on the quiet Banstraat. The spacious entrance and hallway provide ample room, including a practical area for bicycle storage. The basement of approximately 13 m² is also accessible from the entrance and is ideal as additional storage space.

Second Floor
The internal staircase from the ground floor leads to the second floor. A wide and welcoming landing with a wardrobe and separate toilet provides access to the spacious living level.

At the front is the generous living room, featuring a beautiful wide expanse of windows and unobstructed views over the leafy Reijnier Vinkeleskade. The large windows provide an exceptional amount of natural light and create a pleasant, open atmosphere.

The original en-suite has been preserved, including the characteristic built-in cupboards on either side. At the front is a second spacious room, currently used as a sitting and study room.

At the rear is the dining room, with French doors opening onto the balcony. Adjacent is the bright family kitchen, offering plenty of storage space and pleasant views outside. The study is accessible from the kitchen and also enjoys views over the greenery.

Third Floor
The third floor is surprisingly spacious and features a generous landing, separate toilet and a practical cupboard housing the central heating system. From here, four spacious bedrooms and the bathroom can be accessed.

The master bedroom is located at the rear and features double French doors opening onto the second balcony, as well as a built-in wardrobe. The second bedroom and bathroom are also located at the rear. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub and washbasin and benefits from a large window, creating a pleasant and light atmosphere.

At the front are the third and fourth, exceptionally spacious bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes. One of these rooms is currently used as a study/second sitting room.

In addition, there is a separate storage room with a skylight between the two front bedrooms.
