*** Attractive 2-bedroom apartment located on freehold land on the Vrolikstraat in the popular Oosterpark neighborhood. Thanks to its position opposite Kastanjeweg, the apartment enjoys a unique unobstructed view over Kastanjeplein and towards the Oosterpark. The apartment measures 55 m² and features high ceilings, ample storage space, a French balcony at the front, and a sunny balcony of approx. 5 m² overlooking the inner gardens. The layout makes the apartment very suitable for a single person, couple, (small) family, students, or two friends sharing. A lovely spot with an open view in a vibrant neighborhood. ***
SURROUNDINGS
The location is fantastic—situated in Amsterdam East, within walking distance of the Amstel River and the lively Beukenplein, home to cafés such as Café Maxwell, Bar Bukowski, and Clos, as well as all amenities for your daily groceries!
Vrolikstraat itself is a quiet residential street with stately old trees and the characteristic architecture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Nearby are the popular Oosterpark, Park Frankendael, the shops along Linnaeusstraat, the Oostpoort shopping center, and the award-winning Dapper Market a little further away.
The street is child-friendly, low-traffic with one-way driving, and has several playgrounds nearby. There are several popular schools in the area.
ACCESSIBILITY
Close to Amstel Station, metro and tram stops, and within a 10-minute bike ride to the city center. Excellent location for public transport and easily accessible by car via Middenweg/Linnaeusstraat or Gooiseweg and Wibautstraat. Near the O.L.V.G. hospital and the “Knowledge Mile” (area around Weesperplein with branches of the University of Applied Sciences, companies, and institutions). Paid street parking or via a permit system.
LAYOUT
The communal entrance and staircase lead to a landing on the first floor, where you’ll find the apartment’s front door. The central hallway provides access to all rooms except the work/bedroom at the front.
The spacious bedroom with fireplace and double doors to the balcony is located at the rear overlooking the gardens. This room features a high sleeper (suitable for a mattress of 160 x 200 cm) and a deep built-in closet. As such, the room can also be used as a combined living and bedroom. In consultation with the HOA, expanding the balcony is a possibility.
The bathroom is split into two areas and includes a toilet with shower, a utility room with washer/dryer, cupboard space, and a vanity unit with sink.
The kitchen is built-in with white cabinetry and appliances including a gas stove, fridge/freezer, extractor hood, dishwasher, and oven. The central heating boiler is integrated into the kitchen.
The living room, also with fireplace and ornamental ceiling, is at the front of the apartment and has a French balcony with an open view across Kastanjeplein. The living room also leads to a bedroom/office where the meter cupboard is located.
