De Borger 129D
We previously assisted the owner with the purchase of her first home on Borgerstraat. She lived there for many years with great pleasure, enjoying the location, the characterful house with its spacious kitchen, and the sunny balcony. In recent years, the property has been rented out, and now, together with her family, she has decided to take the next step within Amsterdam.
The apartment is in a prime location in Amsterdam Oud-West, near Jan Pieter Heijestraat and Vondelpark. The neighborhood offers a vibrant mix of cozy cafés, restaurants, and shops, while green parks and city amenities are always within reach.

Borgerstraat is located in the Kinkerbuurt, a lively part of Amsterdam Oud-West with a rich history. The street was developed in the late 19th century during the city’s expansion and was named after Pieter Lodewijk de Borger, an influential alderman of that time.
Over the decades, the neighborhood has undergone a remarkable transformation. Once a traditional working-class district, Kinkerbuurt has evolved into a sought-after residential area, blending historic charm with modern living. Thanks to urban renewal projects in the 1970s and 1980s, the housing quality has significantly improved, creating a dynamic mix of original and renovated buildings.
With the bustling Kinkerstraat, the popular Foodhallen, and the Ten Katemarkt within walking distance, the area offers an abundance of dining and shopping opportunities. Sports enthusiasts will also find plenty of options, with Vondelpark and various sports facilities in the Amsterdamse Bos easily accessible. For those seeking tranquility, the nearby Botanical Garden provides a peaceful green retreat in the heart of the city.
The charming living room at the rear of the home is bathed in natural light thanks to the large south-facing windows. This comfortable space offers ample room for both a sitting and dining area. The wooden flooring, which extends throughout the entire home, enhances the warm and spacious ambiance.
At the front, the generous kitchen is fully equipped with modern built-in appliances, including a dishwasher, combination oven/microwave, four-burner gas stove with extractor, and plenty of storage space. An ideal setting for cooking and dining in good company.
