Kanaalstraat 116 3

Happy in the Helmersbuurt district!

A comfortable two-room apartment, renovated to a very high standard, in the highly sought-after Helmersbuurt district.

This bright and sunny property is on the third floor, and comes with a French balcony at the front and a large balcony at the rear. It has a total floor surface area of 50m2, measured in accordance with the NEN 2580 standard. The apartment enjoys an excellent central location in the Helmersbuurt district, between Jan Pieter Heijestraat, Overtoom, Jacob van Lennepkade, and 3e Kostverlorenkade. This puts it within arm’s reach of the nearby lovely outdoor terraces, shops, and restaurants, but just out of the way of the hordes of tourists clogging up the pavements.

LAYOUT
Bright and spacious living room with doors opening out onto the French balcony at the front. Ideal for basking in the afternoon sun. In the central section of the apartment is the open kitchen, designed and finished to a very high standard, and featuring a stainless steel work surface, a built-in 5-burner hob, a Siemens dishwasher, a Siemens combi oven, and a stainless steel extractor hood. There is also a separate Smeg fridge freezer. Opposite the kitchen is the stunningly-designed bathroom, boasting stylish grey tiles, a shower with a thermostat-controlled tap, a sink with two large drawers, a wall-hung toilet, and a stainless steel towel radiator. Next to the bathroom is a useful space housing the central heating boiler, and with room and fittings for a washing machine and dryer. To the rear is the pleasant dining area, with access to the balcony. The bedroom is also at the rear, in an extension to the building, and includes a useful wardrobe.
This wonderful apartment was completely renovated in 2009; it has superb parquet flooring throughout, and all the rewiring and pipes were updated and concealed behind the smoothly plastered walls.

LOCATION
This distinctive and older part of Amsterdam is a lively and thriving area, close to the canal belt and the Jordaan district. The apartment is just behind Overtoom, with its many shops, and just a short distance from Leidseplein, well known for its nightlife. For those in search of a more peaceful setting, there is a range of leisure options in nearby Vondelpark.

TRANSPORT CONNECTIONS
The area is well served by numerous bus and tram routes and has a direct link to the A10 Ring Road: this makes this centrally situated apartment easily accessible for everyone.
A permit is required for car parking, which can be applied for from the Amsterdam City Council. There is currently a waiting list of around four months (for permit zone West-11.3).
