Wonderfully spacious and bright apartment measuring approximately 86 sq m, with a sunny, southwest-facing roof terrace and situated on the top two floors of its building. In good condition and featuring two bedrooms plus a separate studio flat with private bathroom, this home has everything you are looking for! As the icing on the cake, it is a freehold property.

John Franklinstraat is located in the trendy De Baarsjes district. It is a side street of Jan Evertsenstraat and just around the corner is the lovely Erasmuspark. Within walking distance you will find all kinds of fine cafés and restaurants, supermarkets and pleasant shops. Enjoy a bite to eat at Café Cook or Zurich, a drink at Bar Baarsch or the terrace at Terrasmus. Alternatively, you can cycle to De Hallen or one of the other many hotspots in Oud-West within a few minutes. The Jordaan neighbourhood is also within easy reach. In short: a lovely, quiet place to live, yet with the city at your feet.

Natural stone stairs leading up from street to building entrance, opening into communal staircase. Access to apartment on third floor.

Front door to hallway with access to a toilet with hand basin and separate kitchen equipped with built-in appliances including four-burner gas hob, extractor fan, oven, dishwasher and standalone fridge.

At the front you have a lovely view of tree-lined Vancouverstraat opposite. Main bedroom on street side with fitted wall-length wardrobe, currently used as children’s room but offering more than enough space for a king-size bed. Almost all of this level has light oak flooring.

Sturdy staircase in middle of living room up to fourth (top) floor. Here you find a large split-level second bedroom: sleeping area on the mezzanine, a great study area plus wardrobe space below. Modern en-suite bathroom including spacious walk-in shower and modern vanity unit. Both bedroom and bathroom have underfloor heating.

Generously-sized separate studio flat at front of fourth floor, featuring its own private bathroom with shower, vanity unit and toilet. This space is currently reached via the communal stairwell, but can also be accessed internally. The loft above is not in use at the moment, but offers further possibilities. Finally, an unusually large storage space by Amsterdam standards, also housing the central heating boiler and connections for a washing machine.
