Elevator, luxury, and light living at the highest level on Banstraat. Spacious and exceptionally refined apartment of approximately 253 m², complete with lift access, loggia, private storage and two parking spaces (offered separately; see details).
Situated in the beloved Cornelis Schuytbuurt, this high-end residence occupies the second floor of an intimate building designed by Cees Dam (Van Dam & Partners, 2016). With a façade nearly 27 metres wide, a southwest-facing loggia, and direct elevator access into the apartment, Banstraat 27 B offers a rare balance of light, peace, and modern comfort.
The home features a grand, 22-metre-wide living space with multiple layout options, a bespoke kitchen with utility room, two generous bedrooms (option for a third), two luxurious bathrooms and a large walk-in closet. Every detail is finished with precision, using premium materials and advanced installations such as underfloor heating, ceiling cooling, and home automation. The loggia extends the living space outward — a sheltered, sunlit area that enjoys afternoon and evening sun. In the basement, two extra-wide parking spaces and a large private storage room are directly connected to the apartment via the lift. The parking garage is spacious and well laid out, without a car lift, and easily accessible.
Each parking space is offered separately for € 200,000 (buyer’s costs).
Tour
Banstraat 27 B is an exceptional residence where architecture, comfort and tranquillity come together seamlessly. Spanning nearly the full width of the building, the living area extends more than 22 metres, defined by light, space and subtle sophistication.
The living room is composed of a lounge area with a gas fireplace and a cosy television corner, linked by custom cabinetry and framed by soft materials in neutral tones. The dining area adjoins the loggia — an open, airy space that flows naturally between inside and out. The kitchen is designed as a piece of furniture in itself: understated in appearance yet highly functional. Behind it lies a utility room that keeps the space serene and organised.
In the rear wing are two full-sized bedrooms, a walk-in wardrobe and two bathrooms. The master suite exudes calm, with bespoke wardrobes, a private dressing room and a bathroom where luxury meets comfort. The second bedroom mirrors this serene aesthetic, with its own en-suite bathroom.
The southwest-facing loggia serves as an elegant extension of the living area. Thanks to the floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors and deep overhang, it can be enjoyed year-round — light, private and connected to the city.
In the basement, a secure and well-designed parking garage offers two large parking spaces (available separately), directly accessible via the lift. The communal areas are generous and thoughtfully designed, with automatic entry systems and ample circulation space.
A home of international calibre — tranquil, refined, and ideally situated in one of Amsterdam-Zuid’s most desirable locations.

Boutique Living
As a real estate agent, I see every day how quality reveals itself through space, tranquility, and refinement. Banstraat 27 B is a rare example of that. Not only because of its location in the most elegant part of Oud-Zuid, but above all due to the unique character of the building and the exceptional level of finish. This apartment of approximately 253 m². I prefer to call it a city villa in the sky combines international allure with the intimacy of a private world. The elevator opens directly into the residence, parking takes place in a secured garage, and the level of comfort is truly exceptional. Every detail has been carefully considered, down to the technology and the finishes. With a width of nearly 27 meters and large windows on both sides, the apartment feels bright, spacious, and well-balanced. The living area stretches almost from façade to façade, the terrace extends calmly along the front, and the sleeping quarters are located in complete privacy at both the front and rear. In addition, the building’s facilities fully meet the standards one would expect, including a separate storage room of approximately 10 m², a secured bicycle storage area, and two XL parking spaces (offered separately) located in the basement. A unique feature is that the parking garage is accessible without the use of a car lift. Banstraat 27 B is for those who wish to live in the city without compromise, where luxury, safety, and privacy are a given. I would be happy to tell you more about it. Hope to see you soon.
