De Utrechtse
As an office, we handle the sale of a diverse range of properties. For us as real estate agents, this variety is very motivating and it contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the entire housing market in Amsterdam. The apartment at Utrechtsedwarsstraat 29-III, which we have the pleasure of selling, is a well-laid-out apartment located in the city center, near the Amstel, the lively Utrechtsestraat, and the Amstelveld. The neighborhood dynamics are very pleasant, and the amenities are excellent. On Utrechtsestraat, you will find a variety of shops, specialty stores, and delicatessens. Additionally, there are many good restaurants and cozy cafés in the area. What I find particularly appealing about this apartment is the tranquility you experience in the home and street, despite being around the corner from the lively dynamics of Utrechtsestraat and the Canal Belt. Additionally, the rooftop terrace offers a premium outdoor space with a beautiful view of the Prinsengracht and the Amstelveld. Additionally, the apartment is equipped with solar panels and has an energy label A.
In short: a lovely home with a beautiful rooftop terrace, peacefully located in a vibrant neighborhood.
If you are interested, I would be happy to invite you to come by. Of course, I would then gladly tell you more about the apartment. Perhaps we will see each other soon.

Architecture
The apartment at Utrechtsedwarsstraat 29 III is located in a building consisting of three units (numbers 27-29-31) and was built in 1936 as a garage/storage on the ground floor with nine separate family apartments above. Since 2019, the ground floor no longer functions as a garage but as a yoga studio. Originally, three other old buildings stood on the plot of the building unit, which were demolished in 1935. Due to the construction quality in the neighborhood and city policies, a diversity of architectural styles has emerged on Utrechtsedwarsstraat, which vary significantly. The buildings range from constructions from 1775, the 1970s and ’80s, to new constructions from 2007, and all appear well-maintained. The building is characteristic of its period and was constructed in the Amsterdam School style. The building has a solid appearance, with the former garage doors combined with the solid wooden front doors and the natural stone boundary giving it a robust look.
Living and cooking
The enclosed entrance is located on the second floor, from which the stairs and hallway provide access to the living floor on the third floor. At the front, you’ll find the charming living room. With its stained glass windows, large built-in closet, and views of the historic buildings, this room truly shines. The southeastern orientation makes this space very bright, creating a very pleasant place to be. The living kitchen is located at the back of the building. Thanks to the French doors and the adjoining balcony, this is an ideal space for a cozy dinner with friends or family. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances, such as a 5-burner gas hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, oven, and so on. In the hallway, you’ll find the guest toilet, with the laundry room adjacent to it. There is a possibility to separate these by placing a wall in the toilet and adding an extra door in the hallway.
Sleeping and bathing
The sleeping floor is located on the fourth, also the top floor of the building. The spacious landing provides access to all bedrooms. The master bedroom is situated at the rear of the building and is equipped with air conditioning, a private balcony, and a large wardrobe. Additionally, the master bedroom provides access to the bathroom. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub with shower function, toilet, and washbasin. At the front, you will find the other two bedrooms, both of excellent size for a single bed. The delightful rooftop terrace is accessed via the staircase in the landing.
The rooftop terrace and the balconies
Adjacent to each floor, the apartment has a balcony facing northwest. The kitchen has access to the balcony of approximately 2 square meters through three doors. During the summer months, it’s delightful to spend time here, thanks to the double French doors that create the ultimate indoor/outdoor experience. The second balcony is accessible via the master bedroom; here you’ll also find the air conditioning unit and the central heating boiler. The highlight of the apartment is the delightful rooftop terrace of approximately 33 square meters, equipped with water and electricity connections. Here, one can fully enjoy the sun and the stunning city views.
