Living in the centre of Amsterdam, yet enjoying the peace of a tucked-away street, two balconies and views over a green courtyard. Welcome to Utrechtsedwarsstraat 81E. This bright two-bedroom apartment is situated on the fourth floor of a well-maintained complex. It stands on freehold land and has an energy label B. The lively Utrechtsestraat is literally around the corner, yet at home you mainly hear birdsong and hardly any traffic. A place where the charm of Amsterdam\u2019s historic city centre meets the comfort of a modern apartment. I would be delighted to show you around.<\/p>

You can walk through the entire apartment virtually and immediately get a clear impression of its layout and dimensions. Measure the rooms yourself and remove all the furniture with a single click to see the apartment empty. This way, you will arrive well prepared for your viewing.<\/p>
The well-maintained communal entrance and neat staircase lead to the fourth floor. Once inside, the practical and spacious layout immediately stands out. The oak-coloured laminate flooring, large windows and pleasant arrangement give the apartment a bright and inviting feel.<\/p>
The living room is generously sized and benefits from plenty of natural light. The large windows and distinctive shape of the fa\u00e7ade create a surprisingly spacious and airy atmosphere. At the front, the living room opens directly onto the sunny south-facing balcony. Its sheltered position means you can enjoy the sunshine here from early spring onwards.<\/p>
The open-plan kitchen connects naturally with the living room and provides everything you need for everyday use. It offers ample cupboard space and is equipped with a refrigerator, dishwasher, combination oven and five-burner gas hob. Whether you are preparing an elaborate dinner for friends or a quick weekday meal, there is plenty of room to cook.<\/p>
Two bedrooms are situated at the quiet rear of the apartment. The main bedroom is particularly spacious, with ample room for a double bed and a large wardrobe. The second bedroom is also a good-sized, versatile room, ideal as a child\u2019s bedroom, guest room or home office. Both bedrooms provide direct access to the north-west-facing balcony, which overlooks a peaceful, green courtyard. A lovely place to end the day, where despite living in the heart of the city, you mainly hear birds rather than traffic.<\/p>
The generously sized bathroom features both a comfortable bathtub and a spacious walk-in shower. It also includes a washbasin unit and is neatly finished with large anthracite floor tiles and white wall tiles. The toilet is separate, providing additional convenience for residents and guests.<\/p>
The apartment also includes a practical internal storage area with a washing-machine connection, a private storage unit with electricity on the ground floor and a communal bicycle storage facility.<\/p>
Utrechtsedwarsstraat is a hidden gem between Utrechtsestraat and the River Amstel. The shops, caf\u00e9s and terraces are just a short walk away, while at home you can enjoy a peaceful, leafy street with a friendly atmosphere. It is precisely this contrast that makes the location so appealing.<\/p>
The popular Utrechtsestraat is just around the corner and is perhaps one of Amsterdam\u2019s most charming shopping streets. Here, you will find a mixture of specialist shops, boutiques and welcoming caf\u00e9s and restaurants that have helped shape the character of the neighbourhood for many years. For a good cup of coffee, walk to Screaming Beans, Caf\u00e9 Marcella or Caf\u00e9 Meyer. Prefer an authentic Amsterdam pub? Caf\u00e9 Oosterling, Caf\u00e9 De Huyskamer, Caf\u00e9 Krom and Onder de Ooievaar are established local favourites.<\/p>
Amstelveld is also just a few minutes\u2019 walk away, and there is always something happening here. On Mondays, it hosts a lively market, while flea markets are regularly held during the summer. On sunny days, you can play a game of p\u00e9tanque or find a table on the terrace at Caf\u00e9 Meyer. During the festive season, Utrechtsestraat is beautifully illuminated, while during Pride, the boats pass by literally around the corner.<\/p>
The River Amstel, Amsterdam\u2019s canals, the Royal Theatre Carr\u00e9, Stopera and Rembrandtplein are all within walking distance. Vijzelgracht metro station and several tram connections are nearby, providing excellent access to the rest of Amsterdam.<\/p>
