Distinguished townhouse of approximately 382 m², located in one of the most sought-after sections of the Willemsparkbuurt. This elegant residence exudes grandeur yet is not listed as a monument, offering full freedom to design and finish the interior entirely to one’s own vision. Spread across four spacious levels and a cellar, the property provides ample potential to create a generous and luminous family home of timeless allure — even without extension. High ceilings, expansive windows, and a south-facing orientation fill the interiors with light and tranquility, right in the heart of the city. Situated on freehold land.
Tour
This distinguished townhouse stands out for its refined sense of grandeur, evident from the monumental entrance and stately upper ground floor (bel-etage). The layout naturally lends itself to dedicating the two lower levels to living and working, while the upper floors offer abundant space for bedrooms.
From the tall entrance hall, there is access to both the garden level below and the bel-etage above. The garden level is ideal as a generous cooking and dining area, with parts of the original kitchen still intact. This floor can be visually and spatially connected to the bel-etage through a double-height void, introducing openness and architectural character. It also offers excellent potential for a home office or guest suite. At the rear, a charming veranda transitions into the sun-drenched south-facing garden.
Although slightly narrower than its neighbouring property, the bel-etage feels equally grand. High ceilings, tall windows, and sightlines to both the Vondelpark at the front and the greenery at the rear create an atmosphere of light and freedom. The abundant natural light enhances the open, elegant character of this living floor.
The two upper levels offer extensive possibilities for a layout featuring several bedrooms, dressing rooms, and bathrooms. The addition of balconies or roof terraces could further elevate the comfort and outdoor connection.
Altogether, this residence forms the perfect canvas for transformation into a luxurious and representative family home, where historic character and modern comfort coexist in perfect harmony.

Ensemble Van Eeghen
Living on Amsterdam’s Van Eeghenstraat is a privilege, but residing directly opposite the side entrance of the Vondelpark, at number 95, is its most exclusive expression. Situated on what can truly be called a Super Prime location, this property represents a rare opportunity in one of the city’s most sought-after areas. The building offers the potential to be transformed into a grand family residence, entirely tailored to personal taste and lifestyle. Its setting, architectural character, and the expansive south-facing garden of nearly twenty metres deep make this a timeless and enduring investment. Van Eeghenstraat 93 is distinguished by its street-level entrance, which provides direct access to the upper ground floor (bel-etage). This single-level entry allows for an alternative, more fluid way of living and gives the house a sense of ease and accessibility. The property exudes grandeur yet is not listed as a monument, offering full freedom to design and finish the interior according to one’s own vision. Approximately spanning 382 m² across four generous floors, plus a cellar and attic, the residence has the scale and proportions to create an elegant and luminous family home, even without extension. High ceilings, large windows, and the southern orientation fill the interior with light, bringing an atmosphere of serenity to the heart of the city.
A truly exceptional opportunity to live (and work) nearby the Vondelpark.
Architecture
The Van Eeghenstraat largely traces the boundary of the original landscape design by J.D. Zocher, the architect behind the Vondelpark. The park’s flowing lines and natural patterns are echoed in the rhythm of this section of the street’s façades. In the curved stretch between Jacob Obrechtstraat and Cornelis Schuytstraat, a green belt connects the villas on either side and forms a natural transition to the park entrance. The row of houses that includes numbers 93 and 95 borders directly on this landscaped ribbon, aligning seamlessly with Zocher’s urban vision. The architecture of these properties mirrors the park’s organic elegance and reflects the Art Nouveau style that emerged around 1900. On the opposite, odd-numbered side of the street, where the gardens are deep and oriented to the south, the streetscape unfolds in a refined variety of individually designed houses and carefully composed building ensembles. The residences are distinguished by their stately presence, generous proportions, tall windows, bay fronts, and richly detailed brickwork.
The property at number 95 marks the beginning of a pair of townhouses commissioned by Messrs. L. Wiersema and A. Leeuwenstein. The name of the original architect has not been preserved in the archives, although records show that architect Ph. H. van Engelen was involved in modifications to the property approximately ten years later, including the addition of the veranda at the garden side.
Wining and dining
This residence distinguishes itself through its sense of grandeur, evident from the monumental entrance and the stately upper ground floor. The layout naturally invites a division in which the two lower levels serve as living and working spaces, while the upper floors lend themselves perfectly to use as private sleeping quarters. From the impressive entrance hall, there is access to both the lower garden level and the bel-etage. The garden level lends itself ideally to a generous kitchen and dining area, with part of the original family kitchen still preserved. This floor can also be connected to the bel-etage through the creation of a double-height void, enhancing the spatial experience and offering possibilities for a home office or guest accommodation. At the rear, a charming veranda transitions seamlessly into the sunlit garden, creating a natural extension of the living space. Although slightly narrower than the adjoining property, the bel-etage equals it in atmosphere and refinement. High ceilings, expansive windows and sightlines stretching from the Vondelpark at the front to the greenery at the rear evoke a sense of freedom and elegance. The abundance of daylight accentuates the openness and transforms this level into an exceptionally inviting living environment.
Rest and refresh
The two upper floors offer generous proportions and lend themselves perfectly to the creation of a complete residential programme with multiple bedrooms, dressing areas and bathrooms. Owing to the favourable layout and existing outdoor spaces, there is also the possibility to add further terraces or balconies, enhancing both comfort and enjoyment.
This property therefore provides an exceptional foundation for transformation into a luxurious and representative city residence,one in which original grandeur and contemporary living comfort are brought together in perfect harmony.
Garden
In this section of the Van Eeghenstraat, the gardens reach their greatest depth thanks to their southern orientation. As the street curves gently and the radius is widest at this point, the properties enjoy exceptionally long plots. Combined with an impressive width of approximately seven metres, this creates a rare outdoor space that lends itself beautifully to transformation into a lush, private city oasis, a true extension of the living environment itself. The gardens are sheltered and offer a remarkable degree of privacy. Their generous depth of more than 20 meters ensures that any potential ground-floor extension can be realised without compromising the quality or spaciousness of the outdoor area. Both in the original design and in later additions, the houses were conceived with a variety of terraces and balconies. As a result, the connection between indoor and outdoor living is perceptible on every level, offering an experience of space and light rarely found in Amsterdam.
Neighbourhood
The property occupies a distinguished and central position on the Van Eeghenstraat in Amsterdam-Zuid, within the most sought-after section of the Concertgebouw District. This cherished residential area lies directly alongside the Vondelpark, between the Cornelis Schuytstraat and the Jacob Obrechtstraat, opposite one of the park’s main entrances. In the immediate vicinity are the Van Gogh Museum, the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum and the Concertgebouw, cultural landmarks that define this part of the city as its artistic heart. The Beethovenstraat, P.C. Hooftstraat and Cornelis Schuytstraat offer an exceptional selection of boutiques, delicatessens and refined restaurants. Every Saturday, the nearby Jacob Obrechtplein hosts a farmer’s market, while the Spiegelkwartier, just behind the Rijksmuseum, is known for its art galleries, antique shops and charming cafés such as Café de Heuvel. The Van Eeghenstraat is within walking distance of both the Vondelpark and the vibrant neighbourhood of De Pijp. The area combines the best of two worlds: the authentic, village-like character of Amsterdam with the privacy, calm and convenience of modern city life. Residents appreciate the abundance of high-quality shops, restaurants, schools and childcare facilities nearby. A wide selection of gyms and yoga studios adds to the overall sense of metropolitan comfort. It truly feels like a village within the city, surrounded by greenery, culture and gastronomy. For gourmets, there is ample choice: Visque on the Willemsparkweg, Franzen on the Johannes Verhulststraat, Joe’s on the Cornelis Schuytstraat for coffee on the go, or Café de Gruter with its sunny terrace. The Schuyt is well known for its excellent meats and lively neighbourhood atmosphere.

The property is easily accessible by bicycle, car, and public transport. The A10 ring road can be reached within five minutes via exit S108 (Oud-Zuid). From the Cornelis Schuytstraat, the Emmastraat and the Concertgebouw, several tram and bus lines depart, including trams 2, 3, 5 and 12 towards Central Station, Amstelveen and Nieuw-Sloten, as well as buses to Nieuw-Vennep and Aalsmeer.
