Description
Unique apartment with city roof garden in De Pijp
CITY LIFE AT THE FRONT, A SURPRISING CITY GARDEN AT THE BACK.
Located in the heart of De Pijp, right on Albert Cuypstraat, this one-bedroom apartment features an exceptionally spacious private roof terrace of approximately 33 m² at the rear of the house. A combination rarely found in this type of apartment, and even in larger homes.
THE APARTMENT
The apartment has a pleasant and logical layout with a bright living room at the front and a quiet bedroom at the rear. Thanks to the three windows facing the street, the living room is pleasantly bright and spacious. Everything is well-maintained and immediately habitable.
A CITY GARDEN AT THE BACK OF THE APARTMENT
At the rear of the apartment is a spacious roof terrace that surprises with its rust, greenery, and space. Here, you feel like you're stepping out of the city, yet still at home. Just two steps from the apartment take you outside. The terrace forms a natural extension of the interior living space. When the doors are open, the interior and exterior merge beautifully, making the home feel considerably larger than its 54 m² living space, with a living experience that approaches almost 90 m², divided between the two.
The terrace dominates from morning to evening, spacious and remarkably sheltered for this location. A place for long mornings with coffee, relaxed workdays, or evenings with friends, while city life unfolds at the front.
PRACTICAL COMFORT
The building is in good condition, and the homeowners' association (VVE) is actively involved in its maintenance. The apartment is reached via stairs on the first floor. The service fee is €249 per month. The home also has a private storage unit of approximately 8 m² on the second floor. Ideal for storage and seasonal items, it's a practical advantage that makes daily living more comfortable.
LOCATION
In De Pijp, Amsterdam shows its most recognizable side. Amidst stately facades and quirky boutiques, a neighborhood lives that's constantly evolving, yet feels familiar and unique to residents. Living on Albert Cuypstraat means living right in the heart of this architectural landscape, simultaneously powerful and charming, with the city at its most human. The Albert Cuyp Market is right on your doorstep, with cafés, restaurants, and specialty shops just around the corner. Sarphatipark is within walking distance. A distinctly urban neighborhood, where life unfolds at the front, while the home at the back offers tranquility and distance from the bustling street. An apartment here isn't just a home, but an invitation to become part of a neighborhood brimming with color, character, and creativity.
