A rich history in a prestigious location
Koningslaan 54 is part of a characteristic row of villas and mansions built in the late 19th century during the development of the Vondelpark area into a chic residential neighborhood for the Amsterdam elite. The villa itself, designed by renowned architect Jan Frederik Staal, dates from around 1911 and is a beautiful example of the architectural style of that period, with high ceilings, large windows, and refined facade ornaments. This historic atmosphere is still palpable, despite the complete modernization that the property has undergone.

Four years of craftsmanship – a mansion reborn
Over the past four years, this imposing mansion has been completely rebuilt and transformed from its bare structure. The total renovation has been carried out with the utmost care and to the highest standards. The villa is fully equipped with all modern conveniences and technical installations that suit today's standards. Only high-quality and sustainable materials have been used. Think of custom-made interiors, a very luxurious kitchen and bathrooms, underfloor heating and excellent sound insulation. Everything is new, but the character of the property has been preserved.

A green oasis surrounding the house
The villa is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden that extends to the front, side, and rear of the property. The garden has been designed with an eye for aesthetics and functionality and offers a suitable place to enjoy peace and privacy at any time of the day. Because the garden faces south, east, and west, you can enjoy the sun all day long—from the first rays of morning light to the last rays of evening sunshine. At the front, the greenery creates a stately entrance, while the side forms a pleasant transition between indoors and outdoors. At the rear is a sheltered garden with several terraces and a beautiful wooden jetty, directly adjacent to the water. An idyllic spot to relax and unwind, right in the middle of the city.

Layout – grandeur, light, and comfort

Ground floor: The main entrance of the villa is located at the front and gives access to an impressive, high reception hall. This hall has a stained-glass ceiling and matching windows, which provide beautiful light and a characteristic atmosphere. The monumental fireplace, wooden paneling, and stately staircase reinforce the classic look of this space. High ceilings throughout the house create a feeling of space and elegance.

From the hall, you enter the spacious living room with large dining area. This elegant living space is surrounded by high windows overlooking the Vondelpark, offering not only plenty of daylight but also complete privacy and a beautiful green view. A door leads to a spacious balcony at the rear.
Sliding doors lead to the spacious kitchen, which also has many windows and an enchanting view of the trees in the park. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, a light natural stone worktop, and custom-made walnut cabinets. The spacious kitchen island forms the heart of this space – a cozy place for family moments, drinks, or cooking together. An attractive bay window next to the kitchen not only offers a beautiful view of the garden but also direct access to the outside via a staircase.

Sliding doors connect the kitchen to a separate sitting or playroom at the front of the villa. Thanks to the many windows on the side of the house, every room in the house is flooded with light – the sun finds its way in from all sides, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere at any time of the day.

Garden level – guest accommodation, wellness and gym
On the garden level, there is a second and third entrance, as well as a completely independent guest house. This guest house has its own entrance, a comfortable sitting room with preparations for a kitchen, a separate bedroom, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Ideal for guests, an au pair, or as a quiet place to work.

Adjacent is the exclusive wellness area, designed as a serene retreat in your own home. The wellness area features an infinity pool with jet stream, a sauna, a hammam, and a separate shower room. At the rear, ceiling-high folding doors open fully onto the wooden terrace, allowing the interior to flow seamlessly into the greenery of the garden and the Vondelpark.
Next to the wellness area is a spacious gym, separated by a large glass wall. This creates one large space where tranquility, sports, and relaxation come together.
This floor also has a separate laundry room with connections for a washing machine and dryer. This extra facility is particularly convenient when using the pool, as towels and swimwear can be washed and dried on site – practical and comfortable.
