Completely renovated, attractive apartment of 132 m2 with elevator and charming city garden, located in the beautiful national monument “De Grote en Kleine Moor.” The property has a cozy and modern kitchen with kitchen island, beautiful bathroom, attractive wooden flooring, and beautiful built-in mood lighting. In short, a property that excels in its well-executed maintenance, but where the cozy atmosphere and ambiance prevail.
The house has two very spacious bedrooms with enough room for a king-size bed and a spacious walk-in closet. With minimal intervention, a third good-sized bedroom can be created. French doors lead to the cozy city garden, where the lounge sofa offers the opportunity to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The location is just as magical, tucked away behind the lively Jodenbreestraat, this very quiet ‘island’ with historic buildings and only local traffic. All shops, the canals, the Amstel river, and Artis Zoo are within walking distance. All the convenience and comfort of living in the center, yet just a short drive from the city, a perfect combination!
This beautiful complex dates back to the 17th century but was completely renovated in 1999, retaining only the historic facade. Behind this charming facade, a completely new building has been constructed with full insulation and modern comforts such as an elevator. The foundation was also renewed during the renovation. It is located on private land.
