IN THE BEAUTIFUL WIDE BOSBOOM TOUSSAINTSTRAAT, WE OFFER THIS CHARMING DOUBLE UPPER HOUSE OF 133M² (GFA 156M²). THIS APARTMENT FEATURES AN IMPRESSIVE LOFT/LIVING FLOOR WITH A HIGH SLOPING ROOF AND AN ADJOINING ROOF TERRACE OF OVER 22M².

THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON PRIVATE LAND IN THE VIBRANT HELMERSBUURT, ADJACENT TO VONDELPARK AND THE PRESTIGIOUS MUSEUM QUARTER.
The apartment occupies the third and fourth floors of a beautiful building constructed in 1894 on private land. Noteworthy is the loft-like living floor on the top level. This particularly bright floor has a sloping roof, original beam construction, a black steel spiral staircase, and a wood-burning fireplace, giving the entire floor a cozy character. The lower sleeping floor features some original ornamented ceilings and an authentic mantelpiece, and besides the three good bedrooms, it has a tasteful bathroom. The entire apartment has a serene appearance due to its light decor.
The Owners' Association (VvE) "VvE Bosboom Toussaintstraat 14" consists of 3 members, the administration is managed in-house, and the service costs amount to € 150,- per month.
Layout
Through the main entrance, you enter via the partly furnished staircase to the access on the second floor. A compact hall with a built-in closet leads to the internal staircase to the upper floors.
The fourth, also the top floor, consists of the living area. This open-plan living space features an abundance of windows, making it particularly bright. The spacious living room is located at the front, while the rear comprises the generous kitchen-dining area, with space for a large dining table. The modern kitchen is fitted with white cabinets and a dark concrete countertop. The cooking area, located along the wall, includes a 5-burner stove. The kitchen island provides additional seating on the living room side. Furthermore, the kitchen is largely equipped with built-in appliances and offers good storage space.
The black steel spiral staircase leads to the roof terrace above. This terrace of 22.4m² is entirely made with synthetic decking and offers expansive views over the city’s rooftops.
On the third floor, the spacious hall provides access to every room. There is also a closet with connections for the washing machine. The main bedroom is located at the rear and features three built-in closets spanning the entire width of the wall. At the front, the second spacious bedroom is found, which includes an authentic mantelpiece and, like the main bedroom, an ornamented ceiling. It is possible to create a walk-in closet here, for which initial preparations have already been made. The third bedroom is also at the front and features a customized loft bed and desk.
The sanitary facilities are located at the rear and have identical layouts. The spacious bathroom features a light, playful pebble stone floor, clay-colored walls, and handmade black tiles on the shower side. The combination with the concrete bathtub surround and vanity unit gives it a very tasteful look. Furthermore, the bathroom has a spacious walk-in shower with a rain shower and handheld shower, as well as a silver-colored towel radiator. A nice detail is the large window.
Apart from the spacious bedroom at the front, the entire upper house has a white wooden floor. The internal staircase, like the bedroom, has a black finish.
