***Very characteristic, charming, and renovated spacious 1930s double upper house of approximately 120 m² with a private entrance on the ground floor, four bedrooms, two balconies, and a very large roof terrace, facing southeast in the Amsterdam neighborhood of Watergraafsmeer.***
This fully turnkey double upper house was completely renovated in 2014 with a deep love for the 1930s charm in a contemporary style. The stained glass windows, renovated doors, layout, and spaciousness make this apartment a delight for both the eye and the heart.
Watergraafsmeer feels like a village, with a mix of young families due to the larger homes, as well as older residents who have lived in this popular neighborhood for a long time.
The apartment on Galileiplantsoen is located on a quiet street with various amenities within walking distance: Christiaan Huygensplein for daily groceries and Middenweg with a wide variety of shops, plus the modern shopping center Oostpoort. For the little ones, there are several playgrounds nearby, and the petting zoo “De Werf” is within walking distance. Additionally, there are several primary schools, including the well-regarded “De Vijfde Montessori School” in the neighborhood, as well as various childcare options.
Watergraafsmeer also offers plenty of relaxation: enjoy dining at restaurant “De Kas,” restaurant “Merkelbach,” La Vallade, or at bar/restaurant “1900.”
You can walk or exercise in the beautiful Park Frankendael. Various sports facilities are all nearby: tennis at Tennis Club “Linnaeushof,” ice skating at the famous Jaap Edenbaan, football, and hockey are all within close reach.
