Description
Kostverlorenstraat 14-1 – living between the Jordaan and Westerpark
Welcome to Kostverlorenstraat 14-1. A charming and bright 3-room apartment of approximately 58 m², located on the first floor of a characteristic 1922 building. With high ceilings, large windows at the front and a smart layout, this is an ideal city apartment for anyone who wants to live comfortably and atmospherically in a quiet spot right in the city.
The apartment has a generous feel and offers two well-sized bedrooms, both situated at the quiet rear. The balance between lively living at the street side and peaceful sleeping at the garden side is just right here.
Kostverlorenstraat is a through road with mainly local traffic. Yet you are exactly between the Jordaan and Westerpark, with all shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities within walking or short cycling distance.
NEIGHBORHOOD AND SURROUNDINGS – Frederik Hendrikbuurt, between Jordaan and Westerpark
Kostverlorenstraat 14-1 is located in the sought-after Frederik Hendrikbuurt, on the border of the Jordaan and the Staatsliedenbuurt/Westerpark area. From home you can walk straight to Hugo de Grootplein with its various supermarkets, specialty shops and cosy cafés and restaurants. Van Limburg Stirumplein, Haarlemmerdijk and Noordermarkt are also quick and easy to reach.
Westerpark is only a few minutes’ walk or bike ride away – a popular place to exercise, stroll, have a picnic or visit one of the many events and festivals. The Jordaan, with its canals, boutiques and cafés, is practically around the corner.
Accessibility is excellent as well: several tram and bus lines to, among others, Amsterdam Central Station and Sloterdijk are within a short walking distance. By car you can reach the A10 ring road quickly via the nearby arterial roads.
In short: a quiet residential street in a lively, very central part of the city.
LAY-OUT
From street level a staircase leads up to the first floor, where you arrive at your own front door. You step directly into the living space; there is no separate hallway, which means the 58 m² are used to maximum effect.
Front – kitchen and living room
Immediately to the right of the entrance is the semi-open kitchen. It is located on the street side, with a window facing Kostverlorenstraat, and is practically arranged with worktop on two sides and several cupboards. There is plenty of space to cook comfortably and keep everything neatly organised.
From the kitchen you walk through to the living room, also situated at the front and spanning almost the full width of the apartment. The wide windows provide lots of light and a pleasant view over Kostverlorenstraat. There is ample room for a sitting area and a dining table, making this the central living space of the home.
Rear – sleeping and bathing
At the rear of the apartment you will find the sleeping and bathing area. From the living room you first reach the bathroom: compact but efficiently arranged, with bathtub/shower, washbasin and toilet.
All the way at the back are two bedrooms next to each other, both with windows overlooking the quiet inner gardens. The larger bedroom offers space for a double bed and a generous wardrobe. The second bedroom is ideal as a child’s room, guest room or home office.
Thanks to this clear layout – private staircase and entrance, front for cooking and living, rear for sleeping and bathing – the 58 m² are used optimally and the apartment feels surprisingly practical and spacious.
HOME OWNERS' ASSOCIATION (VvE)
The apartment is part of a small-scale Owners’ Association (VvE). Maintenance of the building is arranged jointly through the service charges. The monthly VvE charges are €125,11
