This beautifully renovated and exceptionally spacious family home of approximately 197 sq.m. is spread over three residential floors and is located on the tree-lined Minervalaan in Amsterdam South. The apartment offers five bedrooms, with the possibility of creating a sixth, three bathrooms, two balconies, and a generous rooftop terrace of approximately 43 sq.m., complete with an adjacent room featuring a pantry. The layout also makes the property highly suitable for accommodating a live-in au pair.
Situated in a peaceful and highly desirable residential neighbourhood, the apartment enjoys wonderful views over the greenery of Minervalaan.
In 2021, the current owners carried out a comprehensive renovation, including floor, ceiling, and roof insulation. During the renovation, the layout was redesigned (with the necessary permits), resulting in a spacious open-plan kitchen with modern appliances, three newly created bathrooms, completely renewed electrical wiring and plumbing, and air conditioning on the top floor. Additional air conditioning units were installed in the principal bedroom and one of the children's bedrooms.
The roof was renewed in 2020, including the section beneath the rooftop terrace. Exterior painting to the front façade was completed in 2025.
Layout
The apartment occupies the second, third, and fourth floors and is arranged as follows:
Ground Floor
Private entrance directly from the street, with an attractive staircase featuring a beautiful stair runner leading to the apartment.
First Floor
Landing within the staircase leading to the second floor.
Second Floor
Spacious entrance hall providing access to the impressive and light-filled living area with open-plan kitchen.
At the front, the former side room has been incorporated into the living room, creating an impressive width of approximately seven metres. This allows for abundant natural light and beautiful views over Minervalaan. Original fireplace surrounds have been preserved, as have the original en-suite doors, adding significant charm and character to the home.
At the rear of this floor is a separate room that can be used as a study, home office, or additional bedroom. There is also a separate guest toilet with shower on this level.
Third Floor
This floor is dedicated to the sleeping quarters and currently comprises four bedrooms, one of which is presently used as a laundry room.
At the front, overlooking Minervalaan, are two spacious bedrooms, both equipped with air conditioning.
At the rear are two additional bedrooms, one of which provides access to the west-facing balcony. One of these rooms is currently arranged as a laundry room.
The luxurious family bathroom is centrally positioned between the bedrooms and features a bathtub, double washbasin, and walk-in shower.
Fourth Floor
The landing provides direct access to the rooftop terrace.
This level includes a living area with open-plan kitchen, a bedroom, and a separate bathroom with shower and toilet. Thanks to the presence of this second kitchen, the rooftop terrace is perfectly suited for entertaining and enjoying long summer evenings with family and friends.
